Re: Still in it: Redskins-Eagles Post Game Thread
On the Sproles hit...it was hard, but I wouldn't call it dirty.
Remember, Everett was running full speed & Sproles came lunging forward & Sproles knee was just an inch off the ground (meaning he was crouching).
So, I know Everette took his head off, but it wasn't like he went flying at him purposely.
Sproles was continuing to get lower & Everett didn't have a lot of time to re-calibrate.
It's not like Sproles is a tall guy to begin with either.
To me, it was just a hard football play that deserved to be called a penalty, but I don't think it was "dirty".
