Thinking you can get nearly everything on Craigslist? Almost. A frustrated Philadelphia Eagles fan posted a help wanted ad on the infamous site earlier this week, NJ.com reported.
After this Sunday’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys, the ad was posted to the “Gigs” section of Craigslist, according to the published report.

Titled, “Playoff caliber football team seeks Secondary help (Lincoln Financial Field)” the ad goes on to say …
We are a great football team with an elite Special Teams, Offensive unit and plan, and Defensive Front 7, but our Secondary just isn’t able to help us close the deal. Can you play Safety or Cornerback? Are you willing to turn your head when the ball is coming toward your man and break up a pass? Can you keep your hands to yourself when you’re not making a play on the ball? Do you know how to hold coverage, not blow your assignment, and let the Wide Receiver you’re supposed to be covering have 20 yards of space around him while you’re double-teaming a decoy? Bonus if you can complete an open field tackle or complete an interception.
Then we want you. Not much football experience or talent required, as all you’ll have to do is be better than Bradley Fletcher or Cary Williams.
If you know anyone who can throw a ball to someone 20 yards away without having it intercepted by a guy who is only 10 yards away, let him know that we might need him, too.
No word on how many applicants applied for the position despite the “decent pay.”
