G. Cobb – Weighing In On The DeSean Jackson Move

Philadelphia Eagles v Arizona CardinalsLike everyone else, I was startled by the Eagles decision to release Pro Bowl wide receiver DeSean Jackson.  He was coming off the best year of his NFL career, 82 catches for 1332 yards and nine touchdown receptions.

I saw him staying after practice for beginning of the season in order to get some extra work catching the football or working on his routes.  This was a new practice for Jackson, but he didn’t stay with it very long.

I also saw him trying to avoid saying anything negative during the part of the season when he was being doubled and they weren’t getting any production on the other side.  He refused to take a shot at his fellow wide outs.  This was a good move, but behind the scenes Jackson wasn’t flowing well with new head coach Chip Kelly.

DeSean had been able to push the envelope with Andy Reid as the head coach because Reid drafted him and was willing to cater to his stars.

Still, I could see the frustration in his face and I heard about blow-ups he had with Kelly and the Eagles coaches, which were pointed out in an article by Joe Santoliquito on local CBS website.  “The fact is, [Jackson] was a ‘me-guy’ with an attitude problem and [Maclin] is the complete opposite, a team guy, a great character guy you go to war with,” said one source. “Funny how [Jackson] has this anti-bully thing and he thought he could push [Kelly] around; he found out otherwise. His being cut had nothing to do with the gang stuff. The team knew it. Everyone knew he had ‘ties.’

Jackson has always been a guy, who is a challenge to coach, but his talent is undeniable. The Birds are taking a huge chance letting him go, but it seems that most of his teammates were ready to see him go.  Jackson didn’t seem to be willing to buy into Kelly’s new system, upbeat football attitude and sport science practices.

I think Jackson was released because of both on and off the field issues.  Chip Kelly values wide receivers, who can contribute in every facet of the game, route running, playmaking and blocking.  At 165 pounds, Jackson will never be much of a blocker.  He also likes to take plays off, still he’s an amazing talent and I wouldn’t have let him walk.

The gang-involvement played a role, but it’s nearly impossible to say just how much.  DeSean must stay away from his friends that were suspects in the murder.  I heard him say in the Stephen A. Smith interview, that he tries to stay away from his buddies when they’re committing crimes, but at some point he’ll wind up being in the wrong place at the wrong time.  He should simply cut those guys loose.

I am willing to give Chip Kelly and his staff the benefit of the doubt.  I don’t know if I would have done it, if it had been my call, but it wasn’t my call and Kelly thinks he can move on without him.  Chip and his offense had a very special year in 2013 season.  Think about this.  He did this with a quarterback, Nick Foles, who was virtually a rookie.

His use of spacing on the football field to open up both the run and the pass is revolutionary.  Kelly puts an amazing amount of pressure on the other team’s defense, by giving his quarterbacks options during the play.  His team was able to break the record of 20 plus yard plays this years by occupying defenders with a quick-screen look at LeSean McCoy was taking a handoff and heading up the middle.  The corner and safety to the side of the quick screen weren’t able to help tackle McCoy because they were trying to be blocks for a quick screen outside.

His run-option play designs have already changed elements of NFL football. This is the reason I’m willing to trust him that the Birds offense will be able to move the football as well as  this year as they did a year ago, this time without Jackson.  There’s a tremendous amount of pressure on Foles to perform at the level he did a year ago.

I can’t wait for the Eagles-Skins battles this season because DeSean will be doing everything he can to prove the Birds wrong.  The games were already going to be big games, but now they’re going to be packed with excitement and drama.

DeSean is on vacation this week and missing the Redskins first week of off season practice.  He had planned the vacation before he was released by the Birds.  The Skins are practicing this week because they have a new head coach in Jay Gruden, while the Birds will be practicing next week.

All we can do as fans is have faith in Chip and his plans. If he believes he can win without DJax then he’ll have to prove it.

Thanks for sharing your perspective G.

I too would have preferred that they had been able to work things out, no doubt losing a talent like DJax will not be easy to replace….getting nothing for him only adds insult to injury.

Your comment about giving Kelly and Roseman the benefit of the doubt is how many feel, no doubt, but as far a this fan it means that until this all plays out I will be more concerned than previous. More critical and will absolutely be looking for an idea of what their plan is with the results of this draft. Kelly knows the type of players that he coaches best, lets hope that this move does not come back to haunt the Eagles.

To the 49ers for picks
#56=340 value
#61=292 value
#94=124 value
#129= 43 value
Total value 799
It’s a win-win for both teams eagles then have multiple picks in rds 2-4 and still can get more picks with trades of vinny curry, Bryce brown, Brandon graham & maybe evan Mathis.

Statistically this is a sucker play. Less than 20% of players selected after 50 ever become starters (much less stars). You are giving up the chance to draft a difference maker for a lottery ticket. If you are trading a player you don’t need (Graham), now that’s different.

No problems with them getting rid of Desean my issue is with the TEAM unnamed sources giving this Santoliquito guy quotes without putting their names on it that is classic bitch moves. Same guys chest bumping after big plays and TD’s talking in the shadows of darkness, I guess they were scared of the 165 LB one trick pony.

BigLion- Joe Santoliquito was attacking Chip Kelly 2 days before the article was published with those quotes from unnamed sources. The intent that you are offended by “classic bitch moves” was not how those quotes were delivered. Those quotes were in defense of Chip Kelly. The players were upset Chip was getting roasted and shared with Santoliquito the real difficulties Chip endured with a pain in ass player. You chose to look at the quotes are an attack on Djax instead of a defense of Chip.

Biglion, I wouldn’t say team bonding is overrated.Hell just look at the dream team crap…we had a bunch of talent on paper but we had guys that didn’t give a damn about each other, no chemistry at all…and it showed when the games started. One of the worst football teams I ever saw. You don’t win shit like that.
I watch teams like the Seahawks. These guys look like they go to war for each gameday.

Desean never seemed like that type of guy. He admitted he was a quitter. And I, and many others, have seen him play when only when he wants to play.
I dont think he had much dudes on the team that actually gave a shit about him because he choices to never be around once football is over. One of the Eagles held a bday party at one of my bars. Every eagle was there except Djax. IMO, I think that shit matters when it comes on sundays.

Also, I bet almost every player in that locker room will give a a quote without putting his name on it at some point. Whats funny is all these Philly reporters that call these outside stories out, do the same shit in their own reports. Every reporter uses unnamed sources at some point. I think they are just jealous and bitter that the most popular stories are coming from outside reporters.

Like G stated….Kelly did not owe DeSean a thing. He did not draft him and did not have to cater to his childish ways. It was Kellys scheme that helped him flourish this year and with all of that he still was not happy nor would conform.

As far as the locker room, no one goes on record so this put your name on it idea is pure nonsense. Silence can be the loudest thing and the lack of support from teammates etc speaks volumes and is the overall sentiment of the team. We pissed and moaned for years for more of a run oriented team and we have a coach that is firmly planted in going in that direction while still exploiting the passing game….and fans still aren’t happy.

Funny how a real football player believes that Kelly in his scheme and tatics is brilliant but according to the most vocal posters on here is that he got lucky or isnt a good coach etc etc etc lol now they wont say anything.

A real football player also said he would not have let him walk or did you miss that part? Chip Kelly should be able to control a Desean Jackson. Never was about x’s and O’s Chip Kelly is fine there its about not being able to handle an avg NFL prob child which he will run into over and over. What happens if he drafts a guy that once he is paid has some character issues the show their ugly head? Are we gonna cut him bc Chip Kelly is uncomfortable? The other problem is the Eagles time and time again have soap opera departures bc they are horrible at letting players go always trying to look good or have an excuse ready. Spin doctors always making the situation messier than it needs to be. Handled T.O situation wrong should have just paid him behind closed doors it would have never blew up and we would have prob got that illusive Superbowl. “We” were not better off without T.O. we weren’t better off after the Trotter saga that set us back at LB fot years with the Nate Waynes, Kirklands, Gardners and Mark Seminoe’s, Bdawk’s exit was nothing but drama, Assante Samuel complained about the bitchy front office he wasn’t use to after coming from a world class organization, now this Desean soap opera. I don’t need to go back in the vault b4 Laurie with Keith Jackson Reggie and others. Bullshit gold shit standard for dealing with its own players. we are great at resigning our mediocre players to long deals and keeping them happy tho I give them that. resigning the Darwin Walkers and the Todd Herrimans over the years. Now the Riley Coopers resign and keep all the happy to be in the NFL guys and anybody who ruffles a few feathers has to go. We prob would have cut Ray Lewis if he was here the year he spoke about getting some big lineman to protect him after Keith Traylor and Goose retired lol it would have been too much of speaking out against the gold standard lol

This nonsense about “controlling” a player makes no sense because you can’t name me one team that is willing to put up with it. You’re comparing HOFers to an alternate Pro Bowler.

T.O tore a SuperBowl contending team apart. That’s fact and did absolutely jack shit after except make his personal brand better.

Ray Lewis? You’re kidding me right? The hardest working most respected player on the team defensive leader etc etc etc…you’re putting his vocal behavior on the same level as DJax? STRETCH.

The Eagles tore they own team apart by not paying T.O it could have been done quietly with ease. Im so tired of Eagles fans worried about what a player did in another uniform when they were playmakers here. No doubt T.O career did not work out in Dallas, a team that was not as good as the Eagles. You miss the point of what he would have been doing here. I don’t care about what other teams do same way it is no prize to me if the Redskins stink this year. If we don’t get past the first rd or miss the playoffs its a fail period. with the team we were bringing back a superbowl run would not be a far stretch now I think we are essentially in the same spot if not farther away. As far as Ray Lewis didn’t he go through the whole murder trail and obstruction of justice thing on top his vocal behavior that one year? Are we talking about the same Ray Lewis who came into the league from Miami Luke entourage and all? you must not know your stuff. Yes the Kelly Regime is the same bc its about the front office. You won’t acknowledge any wrong doing by the Eagles over the years you are the ultimate guzzler. It is what it is truth is truth it does not make you any less of a fan to point out our teams short comings as an organization. I have no interest in Desean Jackson scoring on the Birds and irritating me dancing next year. I personally hopes he plays like shit, still does not change the fact that the Eagles still have zero idea how to handle players they want to move on from for w/e reason. You can be an irritant like Desean or a hero like Bdawk does not matter they will turn it into something completely unnecessary.

Unless Joe Banner and Andy Reid are here then that’s past history and I could care less. T.O quietly lol really….
You’re pointing to one regime that’s not here. Get over it. Reid became the Emperor Who Wore No Clothes, Lurie gave him power signed pay checks and his stubbornness blew it. We just resigned a top 5 center and tackle resigned the best RB in the game, and finally let go of a go who has had multiple chances and should’ve had his ticket punched after he laid down in 2011.

BDawk was a philosophy mistake because of Reid and Banner. It’s the one move that haunts me.

T.O and Trot were money grabs by overly emotional players that are on record saying they wish would’ve handled it differently.

Knock Kelly all you want and the regime and etc etc but judging by your viewpoints whether we agree or disagree I take it you weigh both sides. If I just had my best year EVER in a scheme that had me as the no.1 pass option, you’re telling me I couldn’t have been a professional even if I was upset at things.

Hahahaha Lynch got traded because he was suspended for 4 games and in doing so opened the door for Fred Jackson who for a couple of years was an absolute monster out of the backfield.

Browner was out of the league for 2 years. Seahawks took a flyer on a guy who they didn’t even know was in Stage 3 when they signed him lmao.

Von Miller got busted for a weed test. It put him on notice. Broncos didnt even have to do anything. One more and hes out of the league for 1 year or more.

Lmao get a clue. None of those relate to a guy who missed meetings blew off the coach and threw temper tantrums. I’m pro weed so that doesnt even bother me. Although if you knew something other than skimming articles for a guy to get busted for weed in the NFL hes pretty much a dumbass. Unless its changed this year they know exactly when they are going to get tasted and they are even given the window on when tasting is done IN ADVANCE lol. Ive talked to multiple Skins about this when Williams and Davis got busted, Derrick Dockery was like “you just gotta be a fool to get busted” they tell you all the test windows and if you arent in the program you dont get tested during the season.

You asked all the questions and when you get answers you minimize it. read your own post you just outlined three guys with issues then went on to say none of them compare to Desean Jackson wow. You just called Von miller a dumbass yet you ask who on the Broncos had issues. So lynch trade had nothing to do with his issues? this is by far the dumbest thing I have read.

Browner ended up back in the NFL in January of 2011, unaware he was in an advance stage of the drug program, and, according to his official NFL player transaction page, there are no suspensions recorded from his time in Denver. The Seahawks did not know of his status in the program either, upon signing him, sources said, nor did any of the handful of teams who brought Browner in for tryouts prior to him signing in Seattle. Only in August of 2011 did Browner receive a letter from the league notifying him that he was in fact in Stage 3.

Browner was tested roughly 200 times while back in the league, but did not have a positive result until very recently, when he had a small amount of marijuana in his system, according to a source. However, had he not been escalated to Stage 3 for his missed tests when out of the NFL — if he was in Stage 2, for instance — two years of clean tests would have be enough to get him out of the program entirely.

Bwahahaha just shut up

2010 season
Lynch suffered an ankle sprain in the Bills’ preseason opener against the Washington Redskins and was expected to be out for three to four weeks.[22] He started three games for the Bills before being traded to the Seattle Seahawks on October 5 for two draft picks, a fourth-rounder in 2011 and a conditional pick in 2012.[2

Izzell Jenkins you know nothing about the ‘locker room’…it would be foolish for Eagles players to come out in verbal public support of DJax….if the team cut a All-Pro player in his prime…what would they do to the lessor players who want to keep their jobs. Of course, they are not going to say anything…nor should they. The ‘team’ concept you and others hold up as so important was violated by the snake in the grass ‘teammates’ who provided the cowardly ‘anonymous ‘quotes.
GCobb has said nothing but his willingness to give Kelly the benefit of the doubt…sure the guy has come up with some creative offensive ideas…no one has denied that…but why does GCobb say that he would have kept Djax…because you need players to make plays.
I and other Eagle football fans believes that a lot of Kelly’s creativity came because of the talent he inherited on the team. I think Shady’s and Djax scare the hell out of defenses and Kelly took advantage of that in his schemes. GCobb is right on the money when he says now a lot more pressure has fallen on Nick Foles. This is right in line with what Brian Baldinger, Ray Didinger and other commentators have said….Nick Foles is going to have to make a lot more throws into tighter windows…defenses will be tougher

The only nonsense is coming from you …he is giving the man the benefit of doubt…the bottom line and the proof of all this is when we win some playoff games…that will means we have improved despite losing DJax…GCobb made it clear.: “At 165 pounds, Jackson will never be much of a blocker. He also likes to take plays off, still he’s an amazing talent and I wouldn’t have let him walk.”
I agree with you G! What I will add is that the points you made about spacing the field had a lot to do with that amazing talent of DJax…so even when he took plays off he helped open up space for other receivers. …
We will see if Kelly can draft a rookie that replaces that amazing talent, if Foles can take the extra pressure that this puts on him, if the other receivers can beat man coverage without Djax’s speed helping them out, if Shady and the offensive line can be as effective with that extra man in the box without DJax speed scaring the safety, If Foles can be a pinpoint passer against the tougher defenses….
A lot of ifs’ there…alot of us have doubts…and deservedly so…but we will see!

You know why he only drafted 3 offensive players? Because he had all of Andy Reid’s offensive talent at his disposal that’s the reason why he took this job remember?

Here is something for all you Djax haters to chew on and reflect upon….something that is probably similar to how a lot of his teammates really feel!

“Also, this was a trip that {Jackson] had planned. I went to Disney World last week. Had Disney World fallen on this week – I didn’t know I’d be part of the Washington Redskins [when making plans] – I still would have went there with my family. Nobody in the building was concerned. We were sitting down eating breakfast this morning [and] saw it on TV. Sitting down with [Brian Orakpo], sitting down with [Brandon] Meriweather, nobody said a word [about Jackson’s absence]. It’s not something we’re concerned about. We’re concerned about him being physically and mentally prepared to play football when training camp starts and we believe that he will. Nobody was saying these things about him when he had 82 receptions, 1,300 yards and nine touchdowns last year.”…Ryan Clark, Desean Jacksons new teammate!

Clark at best is a serviceable stopgap. No one cares if he’s respected. He looked DONE in Pittsburgh. No one was beating down his door to sign him. He’s the equivalent of Mate Allen resigning but not that good. Most people here are more hoping that he makes the team so that DeAngelo Hall isn’t the mouthpiece of the defense.

Yep Biglion821…here is a very interesting piece from Andrew Brandt who says the real reason the Eagles cut Djax is simply the money:

“The Eagles showed their hand regarding Jackson last summer and again this winter. In response to the infamous Riley Cooper N-word video, the Eagles sent Cooper away for barely a weekend before succumbing to the need of having him be a key cog in a new offense—a relationship that now continues with the proactive signing of Cooper before free agency began. The Eagles made a similar preemptive strike in re-signing Jeremy Maclin, who, while injured, “bought in” to Chip Kelly’s program. Further, the team acquired Darren Sproles, a “space player” who can take over some of Jackson’s previous role. These actions, combined with the lack of future guarantees in Jackson’s contract, proved lethal for Jackson’s continued employment in Philadelphia.

As to his alleged gang relations (which Jackson denies), selfishness and other rumors about his locker room chemistry, well, the Eagles have known everything about Jackson for years. They had questions about his associations and work ethic when he signed a $50 million contract, but those questions were brushed aside due to the need factor. The actual reason for Jackson’s release was not gang ties or selfishness or a poor work ethic; he was a victim of the business of the NFL and NFL contracts. Anything else is just pushing a storyline to hide the truth.”

Bottom line!! All the garbage that Izzell Jenkins, jakdog, vinnedaloser, and others buy into is just that garbage…its about the money…pure and simple!!

Brother please. You’ve been back pedaling since G dropped this article. For every Andrew Brandt I can point out a Jason Whitlock

What is indisputable, based on reports of others and my own reporting, is that Jackson has been a major headache for every coaching staff since his days at Cal. He is selfish and unreliable. He has difficulty committing to a team concept. He is uninterested in practicing hard. He coasted through an entire season because he didn’t want to risk injury in a contract year.

You can’t be Allen Iverson on a football team. And even Iverson got run out of Philadelphia when he was still a spectacular talent because the Sixers got tired of the headache and his bad attitude.

What the Eagles did to Jackson isn’t remotely unprecedented, racist or unfair. Coaches don’t like lazy, disrespectful, cancerous massive headaches. Daniel Snyder does. That’s why he learned nothing from his Albert Haynesworth experience and Washington was first in line to sign Jackson. Snyder is a billionaire fan with a team. Kelly is a football coach.

If the gamble pays off the way they think it will because of Kelly’s football genius, if they win a Super Bowl we will all forget DJax …but if they fall short like Kelly did in college having never won a national championship…they will take the heat they deserve…

EOS thats about as stupid as it gets… The comparison is ridiculous! All kinds of street gangs have been in America for years…do you feel the way about motorcycle gangs? I wonder how many NFL and college players are connected to them? The gang stuff is totally ridiculous and the Eagles are frauds for using it to save money and take heat off of them! They knew about DJax and the people he grew up with when they drafted him…it’s all a fake ass smoke screen that only the ignorant is falling for… Jason Avant is associated with gangs out of Chicago…why is no one complaining about that…stop the stupidity!

koolbreeze…..when did the Eagles say they cut DJax bc of his gang affiliations? They haven’t said a word so you are assuming. So all this defending of DJax is for not bc there is nothing to defend. So you look ignorant for arguing for something with no basis or substance.
Also HUGE difference between DJax and Avant. Avant matured in college….DJax is still acting like he is on momma’s tit.

Just seen a couple of things that said Barr may fall in the draft far as 20th if Barr is there when the eagles pick I’ll run the card up for them.

Top players if they fall the eagles should take.
1. Evans
2.barr
3. Ha ha
4. Cooks
These are the only players the eagles should look to trade up for if they slip at all in the draft I would still trade down but if any of those 4guys fall to late teens then they have to think about moving up.

I believe I mentioned last Week Gloomy that Barr was falling and that Scouts were concerned about his lack of physicality, shying away from contact in game film and his overall lack of Stength and lack of natural instincts… …
When I watched him, he looked pretty good and active and around the ball to me.. Barr was actually recruited and Played RB his 1st 2 Seasons at UCLA, then was Converted to OLB/Designated Pass-Rusher last Year by Coach Jim Mora & Staff, which is probably why he lacks some natural instints perhaps as a Defender after playing RB most of his life..

Taking a even deeper look at the eagles position the birds are almost forced to trade back due to the eagles most likely get rid of these players by the end of next year and there gonna need to replace them so they can either trade back this year and draft there replacements now and have these players ready when they let the old vets go or they can draft them next year and have them as rookies playing.
1.brent celek
2.trent cole
3.democo Ryan’s
4.cary Williams
5.bradley Fletcher
6.evan Mathis
7.todd Herremans
8.brandon graham
9.and if cox doesn’t have a breakout year they could look to replace him.
10. James Casey
And the front office has already proven they don’t like to spend money in free agency so there gonna need to do it thru the draft

Agree. This team is in a much needed massive overhaul that’s going to take this and next year.

They are not ready to make multiple playoff runs yet. There building to run through Foles prime (27-31). At that point there will have been an almost complete roster overhaul.

Expect ok and we early this draft to replace desean and herremans. Defense next year.

Its almost unfortunate the Eagles.madde the playoffs last season, as some people now shouting “playoffs or else!!”

This team is not Sb ready yet.

Again I bring up Seattle. Carol was hired and they cut 24players that first test…o think something l’île 45new players before their first.winning season. 7-9 7-9, 11-6…then they hit the fa market.

Lots of eagles.fans cannot see the forest.for the trees. There’s more to come on O, then D.

Exactly!!! People trying to use playoffs wins or else are just showing their agenda to rail negative no matter what.

No realistic person saw this team as a playoff team last year. A lot of things bounced their way. They dont have elite talent although they have key talent at some positions like RB TE OL and ILB.

Reid destroyed the depth and talent on this team with 3 years of pure garbage drafting. That comes back to haunt you. Brandon Graham should be playing for an awesome contract right now…we should be thinking about franchising him…not trading him for a juice boxes and pretzels. Graham Watkins Jarrett….it will take 1-2 more years of good drafting to survive that.

If Fletcher Cox doesnt get his shit together add another year to that.

Nice dream, only 2 major problems. 1st the 49ers won’t give up 4 picks for the 22nd pick plus the Eagles would want the 49ers 1st round pick as part of the deal. 2nd Latimer will NOT make it out of the 2nd round.
The Eagles are not giving up #54, Mathis, and Graham for Jordan….that way to much!

I think would give it up the points match up Updated trade alert
Eagles send #22=780 value
To the 49ers for picks
#56=340 value
#61=292 value
#94=124 value
#129= 43 value
Total value 799
It’s a win-win for both teams eagles then have multiple picks in rds 2-4 and still can get more picks with trades of vinny curry, Bryce brown, Brandon graham & maybe evan Mathis.

Here goes an interesting story

Bob Grotz of The Delaware County Daily Times reported Wednesday night that the Eagles made an offer almost two months ago for Miami Dolphins pass rusher Dion Jordan. According to a league source, Philly attempted to package a second-round draft pick and linebacker/defensive end Brandon Graham in exchange for last year’s No. 3 overall selection.

Damm Fools! when will you mdumbski, vinniedaloser, and Izzel ‘Toast’ Jenkins, jakdog, and knowlessb27ever get a damm clue. “Patience is very important’
You guys ‘BoyScouts’ shit is down right sickening.
You continue the dumb ‘character’ stuff with DJax…ignoring reality that no one really cares or gives a fuck about DJax ‘character issues’
When he racks up 1330 yards and 82 catches…no one cares about his arguments with the coaches.
The Eagles plays you Boy Scouts for fools….your panties are in bunch about DJax ‘character’ when the Eagles cut him because they didn’t wanna pay the money…bottom line…and they foolishly think they can get the bargain basement deal with Cooper and Maclin.
This is nothing new…they did the same thing with Dawkins…and have had safety problems ever since…
They did the same thing with Trottier and we have the crushing Tampa Bay lost where we really missed the All-Pro linebacker!
Same script…different player…
Eagles Fans have been patient for years you fools. Every team in our division has had a taste of a Super Bowl victory, enjoyed a parade for football in their town except us! We have ‘patiently’ watched every management team come in and blow it…Eagles fans have suffered from the ineptitude of the Eagles management for years.
You losers are satisfied and content with the Eagles management pissing on your heads and telling you…”Its raining”. If the Eagles cutthroat methods had yielded at least one championship…I wouldn’t mind them cutting Pro Bowl players….however their methods have not produced…a single championship
Yet you losers cry…’we trust you Eagles management’
Damm Fools! You idiots should be banned from being Eagles fans! You guilty of being downright stupid!

First off I know about NFL locker rooms quite a bit because I am around most of the players quite a bit for events etc. Youre perfectly right if you want to say all the players don’t have to get along etc. Most of the team have different factions and cliques whether it be school or position. Nobody want’s to be around clowns and dumbasses though. For example if you see crap about a player in the locker room and it has to do with clubs and woman….every married or wifed up guy on the team GETS PISSED OFF. Causes them nothing but drama at home etc and causes problems in the locker room. Its called handling your business. The reason why DJax has gotten away with his ish so long is because he is a playmaker…At no point have I ever said that wasnt the case. However that shit gets old after a while.

I love exposing the hypocrisy on here. This fucker Koolbreeze posts all day about Desean’s stats (1330, 82 catches), basically saying nothing else matters/no one should care about anything else when you got stats like that.

Yet these is the same idiot that said in his own words……”you ‘stats’ guys are nuts. Stats are for losers”=in reference to people bringing up the Foles 27 passing TDs,2 ints..

Either this guy is the biggest fucking hypocrite on here or he has down syndrome. Or maybe he is just a racist degenerate (my guess is all the above)

Seriously what a fucking idiot…all of a sudden stats aren’t for losers anymore when it comes to Djax. They matter now I guess haha..

Hmm How can that be? I guess it only matters when it fits your bullshit agenda.

I bet if Foles was black you would be praising his stats all day too.

pheags88..you are another one that wouldn’t know your ass from your head. Talk about hypocrisy…you racist asses are always quoting stats…EXCEPT when it comes to DJax…but the problem is you fools never watch the game. Anyone with half of a brain will tell you that DJax not ONLY gave you stats..they will also tell you that he opened up the field for the entire offense. They will tell you that he made the game easier for Foles, helped the running game…I don’t ONLY quote stats..I’ve quoted what credible football experts have said and what anyone who watches the game recognizes including …guys like Brian Baldinger. and Ray Didinger….Djax has an impact not only with his stats, but he opens the field up for the entire offense and even helps the running game by keeping the safety deep and out of the box.
Fake azz pheags!! The hypocrites on here are you lames…who never say anything about that at all. You racist fools only mention stats when it comes to Foles his stats are all important…but when it comes to DJax his stats are irrelevant…because of unconfirmed rumors that he’s not a team guy!

Teams used to fix problems and reporters used to help teams out and crush stories for better access and preferential treatment. Big Ben was so nervous about getting booted from Pittsburgh he found Jesus and got married in less than a year lol.

Richard Sherman is NOT a problem child. Theres a difference in being outspoken and being a malcontent. Sherman is one of the smartest players in the league…and one of the hardest working players on/off the field. His film room work on opponent tendencies etc is second to none. Marshawn stays out of the limelight and just wants to work and leave him the hell alone about everything else lol. He hates media and the spotlight.

Those guys did not quit on the field. Desean did.

I told you all after the Minny game that that was the end of Desean. Foles was going to teach him a lesson (like all good QBs do to assholes).

Every Eagle saw Desean give up on the interception.

A few weeks earlier every Eagle was sitting in the film room and saw Desean give up on his crossing route and Foles get annihialited 2 secs later. Every olineman who was trying to hold his block that extra second saw Desean just stop in the middle of the field. FOles saw his “number one wr” stop in the middle of his route leving him no options save 2 280lb defenders to crush him.

Every coach saw those things.

I told you that was the end of Desean right there.

You can be a goof. You can be a dick. You can ask for more $$

But you cannot quit on your teammates and coaches.
