Patience is a virtue Doug Pederson finally lost | Bob Ford

In his last press conference over the weekend, just a day before relenting to announce his starting quarterback, Eagles coach Doug Pederson said he was upset with the local media for putting words in his mouth.

It isn't that Doug has lacked for words when he addresses and informs the fanbase through the routine question-and-answer sessions that are part of his job responsibilities. There are always plenty of words. Sometimes the words chase themselves around in a circle as he searches for an exit door from the question, a way to put a period on the end of the thing without actually coming to a conclusion.
