DeMarco Murray May Actually Be A Fit:

Finally.

DeMarco Murray got going on Monday night for the Philadelphia Eagles and provided a nice spark to a very stagnant offense. Murray got going last week, but many believed that maybe he was not a fit in this offense.

Murray silenced those critics by finally coming out and running the ball the way Eagles fans thought he would when the Eagles threw $40 million at him.

Murray finished the game with 22 carries for 109 yards and one touchdown. He also added 14 yards on three catches.

His best play was the play Eagles fans, and most likely Murray himself, have been waiting on. He showed great vision, patience, and burst to bounce the run to the outside and threw a very nice stiff arm on his way to a 12-yard touchdown.

Murray finally got going and has you finally understanding why Chip Kelly and the Eagles paid him the money they did.
