    Did anyone else see the hit on Darren Sproles?
    Immediately after the hit, a friend of mine (Eagles fan) decided to go to social media with the argument of ejection after this hit.

    Even watching it at full speed didn't find this to be a "dirty" hit, just ill-timed. He got to Sproles (no fair catch) about a half step before the ball and hit him with his shoulder.

    It may have looked like head hunting, but Sproles is only 5'9"(?) and was even ducking down a little to make the catch. Everett was flagged for 15 which I felt was right and no talk of ejection was really in the game.
