Zach Brown Is Allowed To Say Precisely Zero Words To The Media For The Rest Of The Season
Oh what’s that? You’re not totally sure if you’ve ever heard of Zach Brown (the football player, not the band) before? Well yes, that would most likely place you in the majority considering he has done essentially nothing since coming over to the Eagles this season. Well, actually, doing nothing at all would be more beneficial to the team. Because as I’m sure you’re all well aware of by now, Zach Brown had this to say leading up to yesterday’s game in Minnesota.

Now was Zach Brown necessarily wrong? Not at all. I think that anybody with one eye and half a brain can tell you that you that Kirk Cousins is the weakest link of that Minnesota offense. And for about 30 different NFL teams out there, the game plan should definitely be to try to make him throw the ball as much as possible. But for the Philadelphia Eagles? Whose secondary is the biggest joke in all of professional sports? Who just get torched and torched and then torched some more?
Yeah soooo you probably don’t want anybody throwing the ball against you. In theory, Zach Brown wasn’t wrong. But the issue here is two-fold. 1) He was wrong for this specific Eagles team. You desperately don’t want anybody throwing the ball against this Eagles’ secondary. And 2) It’s Zach fucking Brown. Who the fuck is Zach Brown to come out here and start running his mouth about guys? Zach Brown was completely irrelevant all day/season, and it’s pretty obvious that the Vikings and Kirk Cousins took note of that shit talk. Kirk Cousins responded on the field with 333 yards and 4 touchdowns, and then Mike Zimmer responded after the game.

Would you care to take a wild guess about who didn’t want to respond to those comments after that game? Shockingly enough, it was Zach Brown.
Talked that talk. The Eagles defense got lit the fuck up. And then pretty much ran away from the reporters after the game. It is almost impossible for anybody to have had a worse day than Zach Brown did yesterday. Sidney Jones looked like a pile of shit. Rasul Douglas looked like a pile of shit. I understand that sometimes you live by Doug Pederson’s balls and sometimes you die by them, but that was still a certified jackass decision to run a fake field goal there at the end of the half. If you’re going to go for it, maybe let the best player on your team make a play and just keep the ball with Carson. Mack Hollins just takes up space. But Zach Brown, man. Yikes. Talked all that shit only for it to end up in his own pants. Tough look.
P.S. – I said “almost impossible” for anybody to have had a worse day than Zach Brown did yesterday because at least the Eagles didn’t lose to the Jets.
P.P.S. – 13-3 is still possible. Just gotta do it the hard way now.
