http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-jason-kelce-jersey , really, who cares? The most important Super Bowl of all time actually took place last year, when the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New England Patriots by a final score of 41 to 33.But if you’re still interested in this year’s “big game” for some inexplicable reason, here’s a look at some Eagles connections to the teams playing this year.LOS ANGELES RAMSJOHN JOHNSON III - SAFETYLet’s lead things off with a man I’d like to consider an honorary Eagle. In case you missed it, Johnson said he trolled the Saints in the NFC Championship Game because he didn’t like how New Orleans taunted some of his friends on the Eagles’ roster. Respect.BLAKE COUNTESS - SAFETYThe Eagles selected Countess with a sixth-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. Countess got waived by Philadelphia during final cuts but he signed to the Rams’ practice squad and was eventually promoted to LA’s active roster. In three seasons with the Rams, Countess has made four starts over 37 games played. He’s logged 44 tackles, two interceptions Womens Chance Warmack Jersey , and one sack. He also returned 17 kickoffs for the Rams in 2018. ZAC TAYLOR - QUARTERBACKS COACHZac is the older brother of Eagles quarterbacks coach Press Taylor. Zac has reportedly been hired as the Bengals’ new head coach. There’s some speculation that Zac might try to hire Press away from Philly.AARON NEARY - CENTER (PRACTICE SQUAD)The Eagles signed Neary to their practice squad in September 2016. He remained with the team up until Philly waived him in final cuts prior to the 2017 season. The Rams claimed Neary on waivers from the Eagles. He currently resides on the Los Angeles practice squad. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTSPATRICK CHUNG - SAFETYThe Eagles signed Chung as a free agent back in 2013. He had a pretty awful one-season stint in Philly before ending up back with the Pats. He’s only missed two games since returning to New England. SONY MICHEL - RUNNING BACKThere was some buzz that the Eagles were interested in selecting Michel at No. 32 overall in the 2018 NFL Draft. The Eagles never had the chance, however, as the Patriots took him at No. 31. But that’s not why I’m listing Michel here. He counts as an Eagles connection because his brother, wide receiver Marken Michel, recently signed a reserve/future contract with Philly.JOMAL WILTZ - CORNERBACK (PRACTICE SQUAD)The Eagles signed Wiltz as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2017. Philadelphia waived him in final cuts and the Patriots have been keeping him around as a practice squad guy ever since. ERIC ROWE - CORNERBACK (INJURED RESERVE)The outrage over the Eagles trading Rowe to the Patriots feels like forever ago. Philadelphia’s 2015 second-round pick only played in four games this season before having to be placed on injured reserve with a groin injury. Rowe is set to be a free agent in March.You may also remember Rowe from him getting Moss’d by Alshon Jeffery in last year’s Super Bowl. (Pictured above this article.) The headline might seem hyperbolic but evidence suggests otherwise: Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor is THE worst player at his position in the NFL so far this season. Pro Football Focus has Agholor graded 124th out of 124 wide receivers who’ve played at least 25% of their team’s snaps. Football Outsiders has Agholor ranked 66th out of 66 wide receivers in their Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement (DYAR) metric. The numbers match up with the eye test. From dropping multiple game-winning touchdown passes, to failing to track the ball in the air on a weekly basis ... Agholor has been an abject disaster.It’s not like 2019 is merely one down year for Agholor, either. When the sample size is increased Nick Foles Jersey , it’s clear that his good 2017 season was an outlier. Time has indeed told. So, since the Eagles can’t go back in time and decide to not make Agholor the 26th highest paid receiver in terms of annual value this year, what do they do now? Bench him? Cut him?As much as a relief as it would be to never have to watch him play for the Eagles again, I don’t see the Eagles cutting Agholor. That wouldn’t go over so well in the locker room given Agholor’s reputation as one of the team’s hardest workers. Releasing Agholor would also mean forfeiting any chance of him counting towards the team’s compensatory pick formula this offseason. How about a benching? It certainly wouldn’t be unprecedented. The Eagles made Agholor a healthy scratch after 10 games back in 2016. His stats at the time:Now compare those with his numbers through 10 games this season:Not that different, huh? Of course, the problem with benching Agholor is that the Eagles don’t, uh http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-deandre-carter-jersey , exactly have many options at receiver. Alshon Jeffery missed Week 11 with an ankle injury and it’s unclear when he’ll return. Jordan Matthews, JJ Arcega-Whiteside, and Mack Hollins are the only other receivers on the 53-man roster. Perhaps it’s time to give a chance to someone on the practice squad. Greg Ward looked good in the preseason and fits in the slot. Robert Davis flashed for Washington during the summer. They’re far from sure-fire upgrades but they at least offer theoretical upside. It would be inaccurate to say that Agholor is giving the Eagles nothing right now. That would be an improvement for him. Agholor is actively making the team worse. Something needs to change.

Some think the Packers didn’t handle the firing of coach Mike McCarthy
