There's a time and place to talk about your most proud accomplishments, and it's probably not after your team surrenders 42 points.
Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay took to Twitter Sunday evening to remind the world that only two wide receivers have every had more than 100 yards against him in his career, just hours after the Eagles lost 42-30 to the Kansas City Chiefs:
While the Eagles held future Hall of Famer Travis Kelce to just four catches for 23 yards Sunday, Tyreek Hill torched Jonathan Gannon's defense for 11 catches, 186 yards and three touchdowns. Slay certainly isn't responsible for all of that and probably was responding to critical Twitter mentions, but after that type of defensive breakdown, it seems strange to even be thinking about your proudest career accomplishments.
SportsRadio 94 WIP legend Glen Macnow took exception to Slay's tweet:
Seemingly, Slay blocked Macnow, which is why his quote-tweeted tweet doesn't show up there, despite it still being on Twitter. He did respond, though:
After winning in Week 1, the Eagles have lost three consecutive games. Things won't get much easier in the coming weeks, as Slay and company are set to face the Carolina Panthers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Las Vegas Raiders in their next three games.
