Anyone interested in playing for the Eagles? The fans are looking for you!
Seems like Eagle fans are tired of their secondary and have resulted Craigslist to find help. The post reads:
We are a great football team with an elite Special Teams, Offensive unit and plan, and Defensive Front 7, but our Secondary just inst able to help us close the deal. Can you play safety or cornerback? Are you willing to turn your head when the ball is coming toward you man and break up a pass? Can you keep your hands to yourself when you’re not making a play on the ball? Do you know how to hold coverage, not blow your assignment and let the wide receiver you’re supposed to be covering have 20 yards of space around him while you’re double teaming a decoy? Bonus if you can complete an open field tackle or complete an interception.
Then we want you. Not much football experience or talent required, as all you’ll have to do is be better than Bradley Fletcher or Cary Williams.
If you know anyone who can throw a ball to someone 20 yards away without having it intercepted by a guy who is only 10 yards away, let him know that we might need him. too.
You would think this would be a cry for help at QB before the secondary. Good thing for Eagle fans, the last two teams you’re facing are the Redskins and Giants, I don’t think you have too much to worry about.
