NFL — 16 October 2012
Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid is one of the longest tenured coaches in all of sports, let alone just football. The Eagles have been chronic underachievers under his watch, but he has somehow managed to get by relatively unscathed with his job never in serious doubt.
Today, defensive coordinator Juan Castillo was fired, as another example of people around Reid moving as a solution to the problem, but never Reid himself.
Well, former Eagles DB Asante Samuels has had enough of Reid “pointing the finger” at others. He decided to tell it like it is on Twitter:
Sometimes you have to blame yourself. You can’t try and always point the figure at someone else

This coming from a guy who had a perfect season in his hand and dropped the ball. Everyone remembers Tyree’s catch, but nobody ever talks about the sure interception Samuel dropped the play before. He had history in his hands and took his eye off the ball.
