As a fanbase, we have enough of our own problems worrying about how the Eagles can, or if they can, salvage this season. They’re only one game out of first place, and there’s no chance any team from the NFC East makes the playoffs as a wild card. So, sure, we’ll probably look elsewhere for the time being, especially with the Eagles not playing this weekend, to see what’s going on in the NFL.
And we don’t have to look far. The Bills and Chiefs battled on Sunday, which featured a lot of former Eagles: LeSean McCoy, Jeremy Maclin, Jason Avant and Andy Reid. The battle right now at the Linc is whether Chip Kelly’s culture really comes down to a winning culture. However, it seems like the players on the Eagles roster right now are, for the most part, good people off the field. So, whatever. I highly doubt we’ll see one of Chip’s players score a touchdown and take a celebration from a known convicted murderer.
Because that’s what LeSean McCoy did on Sunday after scoring a touchdown.

If that looks familiar to you, that’s because it is.
Yyyyyyyyeah, so at least there’s that? The NFL definitely knew not to include this in their post-game highlights package on YouTube.
