Sam Bradford has gotten plenty of criticism regarding his poor play as the starting quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, but his teammates and head coach have come to his defense.
Don’t blame Bradford, they say. Instead, blame the offensive line for making it impossible for the Eagles to feature anything resembling a balanced offense.
“We couldn’t run the ball, and when we can’t run the ball it won’t be easy for him,” Brent Celek said, via phillymag.com. “It’s tough when you’re a one-dimensional team. We played like garbage.”
Celek wasn’t the only one singing this tune, either.
