Denver’s Josh McDaniels Is The Poster Boy For “Too Much, Too Soon”
Published on: 5th January, 2010
It’s been a trying season for Josh McDaniels for various reasons. At the tender age of 33, he was thrust into the role of NFL head coach last winter—and at least as far as his team’s fan base is concerned, has failed miserably so far. So it begs the question—is there ...Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 17 Playoff Scenarios
Published on: 3rd January, 2010
I believe they will end up with the No. 2 seed. They control their own destiny, and with the division title at stake, they will come out firing on Sunday. Remember, last year the Birds snuck into the sixth spot with a 44-6 thrashing of Dallas. Will it happen again? If it does, ...Why the Eagles Got Effed When the Jets and Bengals Got Flexed
Published on: 30th December, 2009
The answer to the titular query is quite simple: Eagles versus Cowboys is—and at 8:20 pm Sunday still will be—the most important game of the week. Oh, so you want reasons? Fine. I’ve heard the arguments. And I will concede that Jets versus Bengals very well could be a huge game. It might also ...Home for the Holidays: Looking at Brian Dawkins’ Return to Philadelphia
Published on: 26th December, 2009
They say you can’t go home again. They also say there's no place like home for the holidays. Both are true in the case of Brian Dawkins, who, on Sunday, will once again walk out onto the field that he patrolled for 13 years. Only this time, he will do so ...Is LeSean McCoy’s Eagles Rookie Rushing Record a Milestone or a Curse?
Published on: 22nd December, 2009
It’s easy for rushing milestones to get lost in the offensive blitz that it the Philadelphia Eagles. After all, through 15 weeks they’re ranked 21st in the NFL in rushing and were, at one point not too long ago, as low as No. 30. But in the midst of their ...Why Philadelphia Eagles’ Biggest Week of the Season Is Week 15
Published on: 20th December, 2009
They’ve swept two division rivals, made a pair of impressive fourth-quarter comebacks, and won with three different quarterbacks at the helm. After 14 weeks, they’re in first place by a half-game, the virtual best team in the NFC East. And at 4:15 today, the Philadelphia Eagles line up for the most important ...Donovan McNabb’s Fourth-Quarter Heroics Spurring Philadelphia Eagles’ Recent Run
Published on: 15th December, 2009
There’s an old expression in sports that says, “it’s not how you start, but how you finish.” Over the last month, the Philadelphia Eagles are finishing better than any team in the NFL. Enough so that they’ve got their own Christmas countdown going: Five weeks of football, four games with comebacks, ...Andy Reid’s Contract Extension Proves That Good Enough Is Good Enough
Published on: 10th December, 2009
So Bleacher Report’s bi-weekly newsletter had an article that asked “Where do you stand on Andy Reid’s contract extension?” My answer? I think the headline says it all, because at this point, it’s whatever. As a journalist or a pundit or whatever, I can’t argue with numbers. The Andy Reid era has been ...Philadelphia Eagles Third-Quarter Report: Offense
Published on: 7th December, 2009
Remember how in the Eagles’ second-quarter report I said that “the more things change, the more they stay the same?” If you compare the third quarter of the Birds’ 2009 season to the same time frame a year ago, that statement actually couldn’t be more wrong. After a 5-3 start in ...Why The Philadelphia Eagles Want The Cowboys To Be Week 14 Winners
Published on: 6th December, 2009
Consider the headline as blasphemous as you want, but it’s the truth. Sometimes in battle, you need a little help from your enemies to eventually win in the end. See also Chris Webber’s phantom timeout or Grady Little’s non-pull of Pedro. For the Philadelphia Eagles, a Dallas Cowboys win this week is ...Featured Sponsors
