Sorry, I had to post a more reliable source.

Strangled out...not a good look

No you didn't ,like trump you can't admit when you're not in the know.

.....to say the Alex Smith trade was dumb is borderline ignorant, like I said he's a hack.

Thanks for sharing, saves me the time of having to read the whole article.

I enjoyed the article in view of it's premise which he openly stated in his introductory paragraphs, as follows:

"This week, all week long, we're taking a brutal look at each of the teams in the NFC East, in detail. The first target on Monday was the mired-in-mediocrity Dallas Cowboys. On Tuesday, we roasted the garbage Giants. Today we'll tackle the always dysfunctional Washington Redskins.

"To note, we will not be talking about the positives of any of the Eagles' NFC East rivals, because, well, that's no fun. This will be 100 percent vitriolic. And yes, we'll (try to) torch the Eagles at the end of the series as well, though again, I'm not sure exactly how just yet."

The caption on the photo of Bruce Allen is worth seeing.

He also slipped up and said some positive things about the Skins.

Bottom line, he has a good argument, if a bit skewed, on all ten of his points.

This article is aimed at the author's local readers, so it is infused with a typical Philly smart-ass, put-down, insulting flavor.

I like this guy he seems to understand the big picture for the players.

Russell Okung argues for NFL guaranteed contracts, but will players strike to get them?

When you take a step back, it’s astounding that NFL players have so few guaranteed contracts.

We all know how the game works by now. The team and player (and his agent) announce some ridiculously large contract terms, but the player actually sees a fraction of that total because the deal isn’t fully guaranteed. An NFL player can be cut loose on a whim, while MLB or NBA players are in a far less dangerous sport and don’t have a worry about their contracts. The NFL is the most popular sport in America and has far more physical danger than basketball or baseball, yet operates without the guaranteed contracts that are standard in MLB and NBA.

Los Angeles Chargers offensive tackle Russell Okung, a NFLPA vice president who has long been a thoughtful voice for players’ rights, detailed in a long Twitter thread exactly why players need to fight for guaranteed deals. His points came as NBA players are signing the type of huge, guaranteed deals that NFL players should have secured a long time ago.
