Michael Robinson’s Take on Jalen Hurts Faking His Injury is So Much Worse/Funnier Now (UPDATED)
Knowing what we now know about the severity of Jalen Hurts’ blood clot situation, this Michael Robinson opinion from last week has skyrocketed up the rankings of The Worst Takes Ever Uttered: “if I’m Jalen Hurts − or anybody in Jalen Hurts’ camp − I’m saying, ‘Well if everybody’s hurt, I’m hurt, too.’ “To me, […] The post Michael Robinson’s Take on Jalen Hurts Faking His Injury is So Much Worse/Funnier Now (UPDATED) appeared first on Crossing Broad .
To Tank, or Not to Tank? That is Now the Eagles Question
Let’s set the scene: We’re only six games into the season. Howie Roseman already procured a couple of draft picks for Jurgens, so it’s clear he’s in typical Howie mode, which is to build himself an off ramp and gather assets for a potential roster flip 2-3 years down the road. A full tank at […] The post To Tank, or Not to Tank? That is Now the Eagles Question appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Brandon Graham Thought Kellen Moore Could Replace Nick Sirianni After the Super Bowl Win
Everything is going wrong for the Eagles. After a 25-14 loss to the Panthers on Sunday, in which every facet of the team looked pretty much like dog shit, there’s plenty of blame to go around — with Nick Sirianni sitting at the top of the list. Not that that’s anything new. Just about everyone’s […] The post Brandon Graham Thought Kellen Moore Could Replace Nick Sirianni After the Super Bowl Win appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Jalen Hurts is Out for the Season
Hurts update: “Bilateral pulmonary emboli” means there are blood clots in his lungs. Adam Schefter says he’s done for the season. Ian Rapoport confirmed, adding this: #Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is out for the season after several blood clots were revealed in his lungs. Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until […] The post Jalen Hurts is Out for the Season appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The Eagles Ran 13 Under Center Plays Against the Panthers for 11 Yards
It’s not just about the eye test, nor is it only about numbers. They are a good complement for one another – for instance, you watched the Eagles do only two things from under center against the Panthers on Sunday: jack and shit. Then Shawn Syed tweeted this out, confirming with hard data the atrocities […] The post The Eagles Ran 13 Under Center Plays Against the Panthers for 11 Yards appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Don’t Worry, Eagles Fans — You’re Allowed to Blame More Than One Thing
This fan base can’t decide what to blame most. Is it the quarterback? Is it the injuries? Is it the coaching? Is it the front office? I’ve noticed over the last few years — spanning all the professional teams in this city — that some people just can’t focus on more than one aspect of […] The post Don’t Worry, Eagles Fans — You’re Allowed to Blame More Than One Thing appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The Eagles Finally Faked the Makai Lemon Bubble Screen and Were Awarded 15 Yards After a Defender Pulled Down Dallas Goedert’s Pants
We didn’t get much from the Eagles loss, but we did get this: “Ass interference, #24 on the defense. 15-yard penalty, automatic first down.” That was one way in which the Birds were able to move the ball on Sunday. They snuck a tight end out the backdoor and the defender was whistled for a […] The post The Eagles Finally Faked the Makai Lemon Bubble Screen and Were Awarded 15 Yards After a Defender Pulled Down Dallas Goedert’s Pants appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Ben Simmons Tore His Achilles and is Done for the Year
Jesus: This happened on the same day his ESPN documentary debuted. Same day!

Ben posted on IG: “I’ve faced challenges before that tested me mentally, […] The post Ben Simmons Tore His Achilles and is Done for the Year appeared first on Crossing Broad .
This Was the Worst Play the Eagles Ran Against the Panthers
There was a lot of bad to go around on Sunday afternoon, but this was the worst: Uhhhhhhh.. Okay, let’s set it up. It’s 1st and 20 after a holding penalty wiped out a 20-yard reception. Thank you, Johnny Mundt. The Panthers are in nickel with five defensive backs out there. They’ve got two safeties […] The post This Was the Worst Play the Eagles Ran Against the Panthers appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Preseason Game – 30 Immediate Observations from Panthers 25, Eagles 14
Feels like Groundhog Day with the Eagles. This was the third straight week in which the defense really battled and made it a game, only for an injury-depleted offense to do pretty nothing in a tough loss. Rams, Jaguars, Panthers – same thing, different day. The Birds were in decent positions to get a win […] The post Preseason Game – 30 Immediate Observations from Panthers 25, Eagles 14 appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Joel Embiid is Not Done Dominating Yet
There has been a growing minority in Sixers’ fan base that has become increasingly impatient with Joel Embiid’s Philadelphia tenure. He has spent 12 seasons with the organization, 10 of which he has played, and embodied a polarizing era as the self-proclaimed face of “The Process.” But Embiid also carries some symbolism for the Sixers […] The post Joel Embiid is Not Done Dominating Yet appeared first on Crossing Broad .
This is the Funniest Penalty Kick I’ve Ever Seen
This video just came across my desk. It’s important: So damn funny. Everything about this video is excellent.

Eagles Sign Quarterback Joe Milton Off the Cowboys’ Practice Squad
With Jalen Hurts sidelined with a blood clot, the Eagles bolstered their quarterback depth on Friday by signing Joe Milton off the Cowboys’ practice squad: Milton spent two years in Dallas, where he made four regular-season appearances off the bench. Across those games, he completed 15 of 24 passes (62.5%) for 183 yards, one touchdown, […] The post Eagles Sign Quarterback Joe Milton Off the Cowboys’ Practice Squad appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Temple Laying 21 Points to Charlotte Must Mean the 49ers are Truly an Affront to College Football
This weekend line jumped off the page and slapped me across the face: 93% chance for the Owls to win. That amounts to a -21 home spread for a Temple team that is 1-3 at the Linc with losses to Army and UConn. Just how bad are the Charlotte 49ers? Well, they’re 0-6 with losses […] The post Temple Laying 21 Points to Charlotte Must Mean the 49ers are Truly an Affront to College Football appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The College Football Playoff is Close to Expanding to 24 Teams, Which Nobody Asked For
This has been rumored for a while, and it looks like it’s just about official: We all already know that, by and large, the only concern of the big wigs and the TV networks is to make more money.

Whatever it takes — no matter the ethical […] The post The College Football Playoff is Close to Expanding to 24 Teams, Which Nobody Asked For appeared first on Crossing Broad .

At Least the Dodgers Were Swept / The Brewers are Really Good
At least we have this: That’s a great baseball team they have up in Milwaukee. Holy cow. A resilient club that does all of the fundamental things properly and continues to chip away throughout the course of a game. The Game 4 clincher was a good example of that. They go down 4-0 in the […] The post At Least the Dodgers Were Swept / The Brewers are Really Good appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Carlos Mendoza is Now a Philadelphia Phillies Coach
The baffling coaching carousel continues: at the Phillies’ press availability on Thursday, Dave Dombrowski announced he’s adding former Mets manager Carlos Mendoza as a third base coach and an infield coach.
