Not going Negadelphia here after a big win, but a relevant topic is A.J. Brown voluntarily explaining why he didn’t attempt a tackle on the first quarter pick-six:

Alright, well, that’s the explanation.

So he says he was gonna run him down from behind and try to strip the ball. Admirable, but he could have just made the tackle and prevented the touchdown.

But whatever, the Eagles won, so we’ll let it slide. Just don’t let it happen again. Apology accepted, go Birds.
