The former governor of Pennsylvania won’t talk about the Eagles on TV without a plastic bag on his head


James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
The mood in Philadelphia is directly tied to how well the Eagles are doing -- at least during football season. This year has been ... unkind. Chip Kelly tinkered with the roster in the offseason and it hasn’t worked.
After getting blown out by Tampa Bay people were mad. Former Pennsylvania governor Ed Rendell was so mad he put a bag on his head. Except it was a plastic bag.
Maybe it’s a good thing the Eagles haven’t been this bad in a while. Philadelphians everywhere would put plastic bags on their heads. There’s no telling how many lives Chip Kelly could be responsible for. Stay safe, Philly -- do NOT try this at home.
