The relationship between Philadelphia's quarterback and top receiver may not be as strong as it once was, even amidst the team's nine-game win streak.
This might be more dramatic than removing a friend from your top-eight list during the MySpace heyday in the mid-2000s. Or to put it into today’s terms, this is like when Gen-Zers stop sharing their location with friends.
But this week’s Fact or Fiction isn’t all about the wide receivers. We’re also going to look ahead to Micah Parsons’s looming contract negotiations with the Dallas Cowboys.I’m not afraid to admit I enjoy watching dating shows. It takes plenty of skill to learn the first name of each cast member two episodes into every season of.
So, no, this lost friendship won’t derail the Eagles’ 2024 season. This isn’t like last year, when the Eagles started 10–1 before collapsing due to various issues. The defense is much improved and they didn’t have stud running back Saquon Barkley. They’ll likely lean on these two strengths to get by the Steelers, who might not have Pickens, before facing the Washington Commanders, Cowboys and New York Giants to end the regular season.
Now I’m also not saying Parsons should take a pay cut, because he’s earned every penny that’s headed his way with how dominant he’s been since entering the league in 2021. But maybe it’s a good idea to make the Cowboys sweat a bit and drag out the contract negotiations. Coach Mike McCarthy could be on the hot seat after a losing season and multiple years of postseason failures.
But now there are serious concerns about Pickens possibly missing more games after coach Mike Tomlin revealed that his star wideout’s hamstring injury isIt wouldn’t be a surprise if the team shuts him down for the rest of the regular season to ensure the hamstring injury doesn’t get aggravated before the playoffs.
