It profits a man nothing to give his soul for the whole world...but for Philadelphia?

Really curious to see what kind of year he'll have in that offense

Being that they have no offense or an offense that is new with new QB I expect them to lean on running game.

It's gets bad early... By midseason he is ducking beer bottles and snowballs.

ya, he's only made what most of us make in 10-20 years....definitely needs more to take care of his future and family...because the rest of us wont be able to take care of our families on our pittance.

gimme a break

They all make good money, but he only made around half a mil a year for 4 years 2 mil total, so for 2 mil the cowboys got their moneys worth out of him.
He wanted a big payday, and the eagles offered more than any other team in guaranteed $ 20 mil.
The cowboys last offer was 12 mil G and 24 mil total compared to 40 mil from philly.
Murray would be a idiot to stay with cowboys. 16 mil less to stay with dallas?? lol not one player on the team would do that.
All the top RB's make 8 mil a year or more.
Dez also has turned down the cowboys offer and might be gone if they didnt franchise him.

Also Bradford and Murray were roomates in college and bradford is the one who called murray and then talked to chip, then chip called murray, and later murray returned chip's call.

but OT he does look weird in the eagle outfit but still # 29.

look at it this way if you were the dallas punter at min wage and had a good year, and cowboys offer you 1 mil, and another team even the eagles
offer you 10 mil what would you do??

Murray said it wasn't about the money, he said it was about winning championships and Philly gave him the best shot. Either he's been pining for the Eagles or he didn't have the guts to say he was after money. Either way, good riddance. He's not worth what he's getting paid.

What person would be dumb enough to say it was all about the money !! lol I think no one.
And his statement was more about choosing philly over oakland and jags, and had nothing to do with dallas.

"He's not worth what he's getting paid." he outplayed all the RB's making 8 mil or more a year last year, so yeah he does.

How does that quote have nothing to do with Dallas? Dallas offered him a contract and he turned it down because he thought Philly has a better chance of winning a championship. He's saying Philly is better than all the other teams that offered him a contract, including Dallas. Not sure what makes you think Dallas is not included.

As for him not being worth his contract, the only team that agrees with you is the Eagles. Not sure you want to be in that company.

It is proven that lifetime earnings are HIGHER for a superbowl winner....murray was short-sighted and cash hungry...not "I want to win a championship" like he was bluffing us with.

well I agree he jumped on the money without much thought. he was cash hungry and could regret a hasty decision later on.
I think it was all about the money. plus his old college buddy was there.
And he knew jerry wasnt really wanting him to stay.

well he didnt turn dallas down because he thought philly would be more likely to go to a SB than dallas.
It was about the money philly offered way more than dallas and more guaranteed $ than any other team.
The G money is the most important in a contract.

The statement he made was a hasty response ad lib, and he just said that for philly fans and media.
I saw the speech and I to it to mean out of all the "other" teams to sign with philly had a chance to win the big game.
There is no way he would say outright that philly has a better chance than dallas.

About as dumb as saying you're going to Philly for a chance to win a Super Bowl!

Don't understand why anyone would choose to live in a City with freezing weather as a choice.

I hope he tears it up and then is held in check by our stout D and sent packing by his former team in the playoffs. Love the intensity of Cowboys-Eagles playoff games and Murray's success will only add to it.

Remember when Roy Willie put a hurtin on Emmitt after he came back with the Cards........I'd love for Ro to do the same to Murray.

Losing Murray didn't increase our chances

Maybe not, but bolstering the defense at all 3 levels (especially at our primary weakness, pass rushing) certainly did. I don't think we pick up Hardy if Murray is still on the team, and I take the 26 year old elite RDE with fresh legs all day, suspension and all.

It didn't have to be an either or.

We had plenty of money and cap space.

Murray married his girl Heidi this weekend. Didn't hear anything about a pre-nupt.
