Doug Pederson On If He Disciplined Zach Ertz For Being a Huge 'Gine
It looks like Jaylen Watkins favorited Barstool’s RT of my Tweet. Meanwhile, Doug Pederson was asked about it today and gave just about the most wishy-washy answer possible:
“Yeah, it was a situation a think where it might have been the fact that uh, and I haven’t talked to Ertz yet so I haven’t seen him this morning, but looking at the tape and watching where Carson was scrambling of course, he was heading towards out of bounds, and I think he just pulled off at that point. That’s all I can say at that, but I’m definitely gonna ask him why.”
What would you like him to do in that situation?
“Well if he can pick up a block, obviously we ask our guys to turn and block and we don’t want anyone to block from behind or anything like that, but at the same time to try to find a block downfield if they can.”
This is after Doug spent 20 seconds trying to remember what play it was that everyone is talking about on Twitter. I’m just shocked he didn’t have projected on the wall of the NovaCare Complex as an example of how not to play football.
