With the news that the NFL’s leading rusher running back DeMarco Murray is leaving the Dallas Cowboys to join their hated NFC East rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday, social media exploded with both pundit and fan reactions.
Here are some of the best so far:
Tony Romo on Eagles signing DeMarco Murray: "Obviously, it's not an ideal situation. I'm losing a close friend, too, so that hurts."

I thought he was bluffing but au contraire

Certainly can't blame DeMarco Murray. Made a great business decision. And he earned it

Super bummed if Demarco Murray really signs with the dirty birds.
