HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!

The post The Cowboys traded Micah Parsons Right After Michael Irvin Said He Wasn’t Going Anywhere appeared first on Crossing Broad.

Incredible:

“Parsons and the Packers already have reached agreement on a four-year, $188 million contract. @DavidMulugheta of @Athletesfirst had a hand in the trade and ultimately negotiating the record-breaking contract that includes $120 million fully guaranteed at signing and makes Parsons the highest-paid non-QB in NFL history.”

That’s so funny. Jerry Jones hated the agent so much that he traded his best player instead of giving Parsons a contract extension. Now the Eagles don’t have to face him twice a year. He goes to Green Bay, who the Birds play in Lambeau on November 10th. That will be the next...

The Philadelphia Eagles continue to swing for the fences and make high-reward transactions.

However, of all the moves they made this offseason, Nelson Agholor has a favorite.

The veteran wide receiver gushed about the addition of John Metchie III.

“I think Metchie, he’s a first-round talent. He’s a quality player, great size receiver, can work inside, outside. Tough after the catch. And comfort and familiarity [with former Alabama teammate DeVonta Smith] will allow him to be his best version,” Agholor said.

The Philadelphia Eagles are stacked at almost every position.

However, even after leading the team to a Super Bowl win, quarterback Jalen Hurts doesn’t receive much credit from NFL fans and some media members.

That’s not the case with FOX Sports host Jason McIntyre.

Talking on “The Herd,” McIntyre made one of the boldest claims yet about Hurts.

“He’s, I think, the best dual-threat quarterback the league has ever seen,” McIntyre said.

This is a good story. A classic underdog sports story:

The guy earned it with his camp and preseason performances. The injury to Johnny Wilson created the opportunity and he took it, beating out Ainias Smith for the WR4/5 job on a loaded Eagles team that added John Metchie late in August.

At the risk of sounding like a miserab, the truth of the matter is that Cooper probably won’t do much this year. You hope he doesn’t do much, because if he does, it means one of A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith got hurt, providing more snaps and more...

A super-secret unveiling seems to be taking place some time in the future at the Linc. This impeccable wrap job unfortunately has me stumped:

I went on a tour of the Linc thanks to the people at TickPick and it was awesome. We got to go on the field, the locker room, and had a Q&A with Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham, which was easily the highlight. I learned that Graham’s strip sack of Tom Brady might’ve never happened if Fletch didn’t sacrifice his role on that play, but that’s a story for another day. When we were out on...

Wearing the green silks, a horse named after Big Dom came from behind to win his debut race at the Travers Stakes in Saratoga over the weekend:

The horse’s owner is a friend of Donnie Jones and met Big Dom a couple years ago, promising him he’d name a colt after him if he ever got one.

This is from Ariel Simpson at the Inquirer:

(Greg) Tramontin, a Baton Rouge, La., native, was introduced to DiSandro through former Eagles punter Donnie Jones, a member of the 2017-18 Super Bowl team who is also from Baton Rouge. The two...

This is nothing new. Facebook is rife with these fake Eagles accounts that have tens of thousands of followers. In this case “The Eagles Nest” posted on Tuesday morning that Dick Vermeil died, which is not true. Coach is still with us. On Monday, they posted...

Jalen Hurts is as polarizing a quarterback you will see, through no fault of his own. His biggest critics will always point to the supporting cast being more of a driving force for his success than his own talent. While this falls a bit more on deaf ears with a Super Bowl ring on his finger and Super Bowl MVP to his name, these are conversations that will not be escaped.

There’s been plenty of attention paid to the NFL Top 100 player list and the summer-long countdown to #1. This is voted on exclusively by active players as a...

The Philadelphia Eagles had more quarterbacks than they could keep.

They parted with both Dorian Thompson-Robinson and Kyle McCord, but they still have a good collection at the position.

With that in mind, insider Eliot Shorr-Parks gushed about their decision to acquire Sam Howell in a trade with the Minnesota Vikings.

“The more I think about it the more I like the Sam Howell trade. [Tanner] McKee has high upside but Howell is arguably a better backup for this team. More experience, basically threw for 4K yards in 2023, has started some prime time games. Really good trade for...

The Philadelphia Eagles are moving on from one of their rookies, at least for now.

They’ve reportedly waived quarterback Kyle McCord in one of the most surprising moves of the final roster process.

However, according to insider Eliot Shorr-Parks, the Eagles might have some interest in bringing back McCord.

“If Howie [Roseman] is confident McCord is getting back on the practice squad then cutting him doesn’t matter much. He’ll still be in the building. But if McCord is claimed or leaves this would be a disapointing result to have given up on McCord so quickly,” Shorr-Parks wrote on X....

So Howie really hated CJ Gardner-Johnson’s guts, huh? Or maybe it was Vic Fangio. Anyway, now that the Eagles are cutting former first round pick Kenyon Green, who they got in the trade, you can get the sense the Eagles were looking to get rid of CJGJ the first chance they had. Green must really be broken if not even Stoutland U could help:

CJGJ has been all over the place when he’s spoken about the trade. Originally he said it was just business, there was no bad blood, and it very well could’ve been a financial decision:

Then he...
