The fact that anyone is giving Sam Bradford the blame for the Philadelphia Eagles‘ loss in Week 1 is absurd. By no means did Bradford have a perfect game, but for someone who hadn’t played a regular season game in nearly two years, that was pretty darn good.
He finished the game 36-for-52 with 336 passing yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. Again, that stat line isn’t amazing, as many of his passes were short underneath throws. But remember that that’s the kind of offense that the Eagles run, and it’s exactly what they wanted Bradford to do.
