Mark Sanchez to start against Buccaneers

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford is reportedly expected to miss Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to National Football League reporter Ian Rapoport.

From the shotgun with 5:42 left in the third quarter, Bradford was sacked by Chris McCain, fumbling.

Not against Chip Kelly’s Eagles. Everything was clicking. And in the first quarter, no less!The Eagles were driving for a potential game-winning field goal when Sanchez fumbled with 53 seconds remaining.

Sanchez was 14-of-23 for 156 yards in relief against Miami when he replaced the injured Bradford on Sunday.

Nine games into the season and the Philadelphia Eagles have lost five games by a whopping 27 points.

Bradford left the game with injury after throwing for 236 yards passing, one touchdown and only six incomplete passes on 25 attempts. And Kelly gave Miami that chance by handing the keys to Sanchez. “I know he had a concussion”.

Ajayi surging: Rookie running back Jay Ajayi picked up where he left off, having another big performance in limited action. “But I don’t have anything else besides that”.

Maybe Chip Kelly should have called two runs and ordered up a chip-shot field goal to put the Eagles ahead (although I’ll grant that Caleb Sturgis makes nothing a sure bet). While Rams fans point at their former quarterback and say, “See, I told you he was injury prone!”

Howard Eskin of CBS Philly sports tweeted Sunday night Bradford said he had trouble remembering the first half of the game after suffering a concussion. Bradford suffered two tears in his ACL which kept him off the field for the entirety of last season. His replacement, Mark Sanchez, did what Sanchez so often does. But he threw that crushing interception with 4:32 to play.

Kelly said the game plan is not much different with Sanchez than with Bradford.

Sanchez promises to be ready.

“I’m not fired up about safeties at all”, Campbell said. He said it’s an adjustment every year whether or not you change teams. So I don’t know. He was also intercepted at the end zone, which could have been a scoring drive for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Either Sanchez had too few reps in practice to be fully prepared to execute, or he had plenty of preparation time and the ineffectiveness was a shared responsibility. It’s my job to go in, and there should be a seamless transition. And I thought at times there was.

Hewitt took the time to speak to the media about how his experience as a safety has helped him as a linebacker and the importance of the success of the Dolphins’ young players yesterday. “The more experience that Bobby gets the better he gets, and it wasn’t always ideal yesterday and it wasn’t an easy game to be a corner in”.

Of course, this is just game, and compared to the brutal attacks on Paris last weekend, none of this matters in the long run from a life or death standpoint. They just were unsuccessful on a running play and the obviously want to score a touchdown.

The Birds have seven games remaining, enough to achieve fulfillment.

“It’s sad”, Riley Cooper said.
