Nelson Agholor has baffling explanation for short-arming pass in Eagles blowout loss to Cowboys

has become a lighting rod for criticism throughout his career with the , most of which is deserved. Agholor hasn't exactly helped himself with those matters, with the tipping point coming in the fourth quarter of the Eagles' blowout lo s to the Sunday night.With the Eagles trailing 30-10 and getting blown Oscar Robertson Jersey out by their NFC East rivals (for first place no le s), threw a deep ball to Agholor early in the fourth quarter as the former first-round pick created separation from Cowboys safety . The throw wasn't perfect, but it was catchable enough for Agholor to haul it in and score a touchdown. Instead the ball hit the ground and didn't reach the arms of Agholor, as the receiver moved his arms away from Allen Iverson Jersey the catch point.Agholor didn't make the catch on a pa s that would have been a touchdown and cut the Eagles' deficit to 13 with just over 11 minutes left. The Eagles had moments where they looked like they quit at various points in the game. This was one of them. Does Agholor know hes allowed to catch this? Patrick (@pmc_cmp3) "I tried to get open," Agholor Pat Connaughton Jersey said, . "I was hauling tail, make a move on the safety, use the space that I had to run acro s the field, and I was running and by the time I was trying to track it, the ball was already out of position. I wish I was able to get there, but I don't know what happened. I don't know if he was rushed or whatever, but we had enough field and Wesley Matthews Jersey I was trying to get there." To add more embarra sment to the explanation, Agholor dug the hole deeper with his failure to haul in a pa s receivers that have a $9.385 million contract typically make."It is what it is," Agholor said. "I can't really explain that. Every day we see big plays, but then we see some that just mi s and it sucks Jon McGlocklin Jersey because we're on the end of not making them and I wish we were making them." Like the Eagles, Agholor has had an embarra sing season with just 25 catches for 254 yards and three touchdowns through seven games. The play has been bad and the effort is in question, a sign of player who is on his away out ... whether that's later this month or at the end of the season.
