So they finally let Charlie Brown play, huh?
The Eagles are hiring Sean Mannion as their offensive coordinator, sources tell The Insiders.
Mannion, 33, was still playing QB in the league two seasons ago. Now, he’s an NFL OC.

After Alex Pretti’s Murder, it’s Clear That MAGA Media Views White Liberals as Race Traitors
MAGA is committed to the belief that the people ICE is pursuing are inherently bad and that therefore opposing ICE is standing with criminals and rapists against the American people.
