So like even if you have a good game theres things you still have done wrong, you know, that you need to correct. Theres definitely room for improvement with everything i can do. But at the same time i know what i can do and i know what i do well. So, um, im just trying to work on that. The eagles are a couple injuries away from need ago quarterback. Every squad is. Teams are now scouting real early now a days so i think i found one for them. Middle school qb made for chip kellys offense.
