Did you see what he said to defend himself?

“That one play has come under a lot of scrutiny, obviously. But if you watch that game for all four quarters, I cramped up during the game and I still went out there and battled each and every play. All I care about is what my teammates and coaches think about me. That’s all I’m focused on.”

“I could see that Carson was easily going to make it out of bounds, and thought the play was over by the time I reached Burfict. Carson & I have discussed it and there are no issues. Our full attention is now on beating Washington.”

Well, prepare for some more fantastic pro-Eagles defense from criticism by Dave Spadaro. Spadaro was a guest on Philly Sports Talk this week and defended Ertz because he “sees things far more advanced than we do” and, of course, disagrees with Reuben Frank on how much Ertz really did get in the way of Vontaze Burfict.
