What are you talking about? Burgess is great. But when he was with the Eagles, it was astonishing if he was healthy enough to suit up. No way the Eagles should've paid the premium to keep a guy who over 3-4 years didn't even play half the possible games he could just because of 2 tackles on Michael Vick.
That being said, I'm glad he finally managed to stay healthy and do something good for his new team.

To boot, moving into a different scheme/being utilized differently probably made a difference for him too. Was he behind Javon Kearse?
I like simple pleasures, like butter in my ass, lollipops in my mouth. That's just me.

No he was in Arizona I am really glad we kept him but that contract is a little ludacris knowing the injurys this guy has had. I guess thats why we are in salary cap purgatory.

Actually I was referring to Burgess being behind Kearse.
