What if you're Sanchez?

Zanshin · September 28, 2015, 04:05:57 PM

They should start Sanchez and move Bradford to Guard. Occam's Razor in effect. Sometimes the simplest solution is the right one.

General_Failure · September 28, 2015, 04:08:31 PM

I think Bradford would work better as a corner. Nobody's better at keeping receivers off the stat sheet.

Zanshin · September 28, 2015, 04:15:07 PM

...except for the receivers. THAT's whom you move to corner.

smeags · September 28, 2015, 04:22:57 PM

quite a think tank we got going here.

Rome · September 28, 2015, 04:34:52 PM

It'd be nice if the balls that hit the receivers in the hands didn't routinely hit the ground immediately thereafter.

Seriously, Bradford has sucked in five of the six halves he's played, but those drive killing drops are just demoralizing. He's skittish as hell back there and his mechanics are a mess, but he's got talent. He just needs some time to settle in with these clowns. Hopefully someone will get open and catch the farger when they do.

MDS · September 28, 2015, 04:41:08 PM

you sound like chip

all he did was make excuses for bradford....blamed everything on the drops

for a guy who claims to not "play the game" and be a politician, he certainly seems like one there, overtly defending the dude he traded a 2nd rounder to get

PhillyPhreak54 · September 28, 2015, 05:21:06 PM

So...are you IN on Bradford or not?

Diomedes · September 28, 2015, 05:39:05 PM

I would like to know wtf is going on with the drops. Balls hitting hands, helmets, chests....drops all over the field.

aggy looks f'n lost out there. he & bradford aren't even on the same book, nevermind the same page.

yeah, yeah...rookie wr and stuff.

Agreed, this rookie shtein ain't gonna fly. Watched some of the Titans/Colts game yesterday (now that MM is there we'll be seeing a lot of the Titans in Hawaii) and Green-Beckham and Dorsett both came up with some big time catches in clutch situations for their teams. They look far from lost.

I looked in to this, and it turns out that these receivers are not actually DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, and Jason Avant. They're actually three iceholes who can't catch. Weird, right?

ice grillin you · September 28, 2015, 06:04:11 PM

probably also not helping that the only guys getting open have the word "running" in their position titles

Rome · September 28, 2015, 06:12:44 PM

Even the running backs have had the dropsies. It's not like Bradford is throwing Randy Johnson fastballs out there either. He's got a good arm, but a lot of the drops are literally right in the sweet spot and these bitches just keep letting them hit the ground. I can't remember more drops in such a short time from any Eagles team. To be fair, McNabb ignored the receivers completely and routinely tossed them into the dirt. Vick threw the most gorgeous ball you've ever seen, but usually to the guys wearing different color laundry. Foles was Foles... some good, some bad.

I don't know why this keeps happening but they better get this shtein straightened out. And soon.
