If you thought coming into the season Sam Bradford was going to be in Preseason Green Bay form you don’t understand football. There was no complexities to that game, no asshole defensive linemen out for his head.  

  On the other hand, if you think we’ve seen his best work you are again wrong. You may have missed this but Sunday afternoon during the game something interesting happened. Sam Bradford took off and slid for the first down. My dad abruptly said “Why the fuck would he do that?” I screamed “FUCK YEAH THAT’S WHAT HE’S SUPPOSED TO FUCKING DO! WHEN IS THE LAST TIME AN EAGLES QB DIDNT SLIDE LIKE A JACKASS?” Michael Vick, Nicky Six and the Sanchize had my dad conditioned to think that qbs are supposed to dive headfirst and leave themselves open to hits. That was the first moment that inspired hope in me about Bradford. Then he threw four beautiful touchdown passes(one called back). What happens is sometimes it takes time and energy to cause a metamorphosis. Butterflies spend months as a fat little worm and just as long in a cocoon. Maybe our much derided QB is gaining the confidence only real game action can give you. Maybe these last four weeks have been his ugly worm and cocoon stage. Maybe he is finally coming out a beautiful butterfly? Only time will tell….
