Report: Asomugha Eating Lunch In His Car Instead Of With Teammates

NmandiAsomugha5Early last season, I had heard a rumor about Eagles cornerback Nmandi Asomugha going to his car to eat his lunch so he could make some calls on his phone to run his affairs outside of football such as; his foundation, speaking schedule and endorsement deals.  He has a team of professionals who help him to manage his off the field life and he talks to them nearly every day.

Today on WIP, former Eagles defensive tackle Hollis Thomas talked about Asomugha’s habit.  He said the cornerback did it in order to get some “me” time.

I didn’t like it when I heard about it because it’s very important that veteran players spend time with their younger teammates.  The veteran are supposed to be making sure everybody is on the same page on coverages.  A veteran like Asoumgha should be making sure that each young player in the secondary understands exactly what type of receivers they’re going to be facing in the next game.

Asomugha didn’t do a good job of serving as a veteran mentor to his young teammates in the secondary.

  1. I think it will Vick/Fokes and Dixon as the Eagles 3 QB’s for the Start of the Season.. I think Kelly & QB Coach Lozart will focus on Vick/Dixon
    And the kid they signed today while Shyrmur focuses on a more West-Coast Versin with Foles.. I think they will emoloy 2 Vase Offenses where
    Vick and Foles Wee Snaps during a game based on Opponent, Score,
    And who has the Hot Hand..
    I also think that if Dixon/New Kid perform well in Camp and Pre-Season, then Vick becomes trade-bail to a Team that sustains a QB Injury
    Or has an unsettled QB Situation
    (Vikings/Raiders for example)
    I thing Foles is going nowhere this Year..

  2. Wee snaps, okay, but with most everything else I agree, except that foles will be the starting quarterback

  3. Help me out here gmcliff, paulman is on a bender again

    • Yes it’s Friday night and it’s been a helluva week..I admit to drinking msone Stelka’s which make my spelling even worse..

    • Jake, you know Paul, when he gets a theory he hangs on until, like Mardy Gilyard, he has to trash that theory. I generally let posters have their say; Some you respond to, some you just roll with, without responding.

      Vick, Foles, and Dixon are your three QB’s unless Trent Edwards is undeniably lights out which I doubt. Kenne, is a reserve on Practice Squad,unless he is lights out in preseason – Which I also doubt.

      The Eagles, will not draft QB this year, If they do, it wont be in the first 5 Rounds.

      Vick, and Foles are the talent, and Dixon is Kelly’s security blanket if they get hurt….When the season starts is when reality will kick in Jake. They won’t be reasonable until then.

      I expect Vick to be the starter until he gets hurt, and Foles will be ready to be who he was destined to be – the Next Tom Brady of this Offense…..

      • But are they ready if Vick, has a decent year, and the Eagles decide to resign him again…….ALL the hating will begin all over again……

  4. Maybe Foles will be here next year, and maybe Shurmur and Kelly will have Foles running a fast pace, two tight end offense and if Vick is injured 12 plays into the pre-season that’s what we’ll see next year.

    Or, maybe they’ll trade Foles… It will be fun to see what happens.

    • Foles is going no where……….neither is Vick – not this year…….enough with the hate just accept it……..

  5. Yawn.. morning girls… vick will be the starter, foles his backup and dixon #3. This will be the depth chart. Only way this changes is if the qb they like in the draft falls to them in the 3rd or something.

    I will be rooting that foles is lights out in camp but my bet is that vick does well with a quick read and/run style. I believe the biggest issue vick has is that he has been asked to think too much. Now… its read and respond.

  6. I believe Vick is going to struggle in Kelly’s Offense for his lack off decision making, his lack of height, remember that the read option Offense has the QB pkaying closer to the line of scrimmage a I believe that Vick struggles seeing his Receievers and reading Defenses that close to the action with Defenders that much closer to him. Vick is best when dropping back deep to allow him the time and space to see the field, in Kelly’s Scheme, it will be a lot of 3-step and rolling left or right and throwing. I believe that Vick will also struggle with the terminology and reads as he has his entire Career

    • Paul once again you make it up. Vick will struggle because he sucks. The RO starts 5 yards from the LOS and the reads are simple. A true RO offense puts the ball in the best athlete hands and gives him a simple read.

  7. I think you’re rite…

    Also, if I see one more stupid 76ers article, without a phillies article, I’ll jump off the fuckin bridge.

  8. Absolutely paulman in a hybrid hurry/ read option that Kelly will implement foles will beat out Vick, who will be the back up for one year, Kelly will draft a qb next year and it will be between foles and the new qb unless foles lights it up as some think he will, then eagles have their qb with foles, the next Tom Brady

  9. eagles0superbowls

    the top 10 draft pick QB deficient teams that pass on Geno Smith are going to be in a dog fight for EJ Manual in the 20′s & early 30′s
