Crossing Broad
There were a lot of stupid things said about the Eagles this season. Fire Nick Sirianni after a 2-2 start. Jalen Hurts can’t read a defense. The passing game stinks. So on and so forth, but nothing was worse than Humpty Dumpty doppelganger Shaun Morash committing to a Saquon Barkley bit that even WIP would find embarrassing:
I’m still cracking up that the Eagles made the DeMarco Murray mistake again with Saquon.

Saquon Barkley has started every game in a season just once, his rookie year.
He’s rushed for 1,000 yards only 3 times in 6 years.
Take away the emotion of a few electric plays, this is a massive moronic contract by the Eagles and that should be embraced by Giants fans.

Where are all your bookmarked Saquon Tweets now Eagles fans????
Enjoy him he’s a losing player who makes losing plays with the chips down pic.twitter.com/yPRGnrVu0z

I know people are too simple minded to grasp this concept…
Saquon has been unbelievable this year, he’s very good.
24 months ago the Eagles MADE the Super Bowl with Miles Sanders taking hand offs.
Anything short of Winning a Super Bowl and the Saquon signing is NOT a success

He hasn’t done squat in the game, which is fine they wouldn’t be here without him.
The Saquon deal, despite the unreal 2027 cap hit, is obviously now officially a win for Howie Roseman with a Super Bowl win.

The bit starts with a DeMarco Murray comparison and the goalposts continue to move in classic talk radio fashion. “Yeah he’s been good, but they need to win a Super Bowl!” Eventually Morash can’t move the goalposts any further, paints himself into a midnight green corner, and the bit ends with Saquon Barkley winning a ring after breaking Terrell Davis’s single-season rushing record. We went from Saquon is a “losing player” to lifting the Lombardi Trophy. Incredible. You can’t script it any better. The L is so large and weighs so much that when Morash tries to hold it, he’s squashed like a bug. He should have to push the L up the hill over and over again like the guy in Greek mythology, only to get close to the top and the L rolls back down the hill and runs him over.
Sometimes you have to admit defeat, end the hot take shtickfuckery, and go crawl into the same hole that Nick Wright and other bozos are currently occupying. The worst part, as Pagan always points out, is that these guys will turn around and say that it’s all in good fun and they’re just doing radio, just...
