I'm Pissed At Him Too

by metseaglesknicks on Nov 8, 2011 12:31 AM EST

Desean had one of the worst games of his career tonight, he knows it, we know it, everyone knows it, and he's gonna hear about it. I don't usually fanpost and I'm gonna get blasted for this and I'm just winging it right after the game ended so it'll probably have a ton of mistakes, but I really don't care. Before we start saying how much we hate Desean, lets all remember why we love the Eagles, please take the jump to "happier times."

Desean was a rookie, but at this point I think we all knew he was special.

All throughout 2009 the Eagles had the odds stacked against them, with injury, shady vans, and certain Andrews whose hair looked like female genitalia striking. However, time and time again, Desean was there to pull through and deliver when necessary.

The Eagles came back next season with a new QB, but Desean continued to make plays. He pulled us out of a close game in Dallas with a 91 yard score, lead the Monday nighter vs Washington off with the memorable 88 yard TD, and he had one of the most memorable plays in the history of the Eagles, a walkoff punt return to win the game vs the Giants as time expired. Not many people remember this, but Desean left the playoff game vs Green Bay with the same injury that knocked Jay Cutler out of a game, and even had a long catch on the Eagles last drive.

Not only is Desean a great player, but a great person as well. He went on Oprah to meet a boy who was beat up in school, and he runs a foundation for donating money to cancer research. Does he make some boneheaded plays? Absolutely, but before you all rip into him in the fanposts and comments, stop and think what it would have been like the last few seasons as an Eagles fan without him.

He’s our Devin Hester. Fast and can return punts but isn’t a good WR.

I'm great like Gatsby.

At least Hester makes up for his return ability… Jackson runs back which ends up losing more yards. Hands are garbage and doesn’t run good routes.

He need to actually return a few

and I don’t mean all the way for touchdowns. He seems like he is thinking of breaking everyone one. There is nothing wrong with a few 10-15 yard returns here and there.

Cowboys suck.

Dez has the same problem....

he refuses to go down and opens himself up for injury…Desean is electrifying no doubt….he needs to focus a little better is all instead of just trusting in his speed….if thats all he is counting on to save the day then once he starts losing steps he’s done for.

Good Luck to the 53. Stand with Honor, Play With Pride. Bring It Home

JACKSON'S NOT

a top 15 WR in the league, maybe not even top 20.

Can Maclin finally get some heat he deserves? This is like the 3rd time he failed us on the last drive of the game, not to mention that awful drop at the end of the 1st half

Maclin is a complementary player, it’s Jackson with his speed and athleticism that has the potential to become a truly great player in the National Football League.

And it’s Jackson, not Maclin that’s made a big deal about his contract.

But Jackson’s size may truly prevent him from being a legitimate deep threat in the NFL, last I heard there were almost always trade rumors swirling around Brandon Marshall, is there a chance we can make a move? The Eagles really need that guy that can command a double team at least on occasion to free up things for Shady and for the other guys.

nah that last pass

was too high, and should have been to someone past the 1st down marker anyway.

Now the 1st down that him in the hands that he dropped in the open with no-one around him…

I don't fault him for that last pass.

He made a great effort to get up and catch that. Really not a well thrown ball at all. The drop earlier was much more aggregious. But he still had a much better game than Desean.

Clear eyes, full bologna sandwiches!
