Three Steps To Heal The Philadelphia Eagles’ Wounded Offense
Published on: 27th October, 2009
Winning cures a lot of ills, but Eagles fans be warned: Monday’s victory over the Redskins was a good band-aid…and that's all it was. The Redskins haven’t scored more than 17 points all season, and that’s exactly the total they notched against the Birds. So, once the Eagles hit 20—which happened ...Two Gibsons Down, One Depth Issue to Go for the Eagles?

Brandon and Mike Gibson have almost nothing in common besides a last name...nothing, that is, except the fact that they’re now both ex-Eagles. Brandon was traded to the St. Louis Rams as part of the Will Witherspoon deal Tuesday afternoon, and less than 24 hours later, Mike was signed off the ...Welcome to Philly, Will Witherspoon…Now What?
Published on: 21st October, 2009
One of the few still-unheralded NFL trade deadline deals saw the Eagles acquire LB Will Witherspoon from the St. Louis Rams for WR Brandon Gibson and a 2010 fifth-round draft pick. In a league where guys like Randy Moss only fetch fourth-rounders, this might be one of the biggest steals in ...Philadelphia Eagles First Quarter Report: Defense and Special Teams
Published on: 13th October, 2009
Yesterday, I analyzed the Eagles’ first-quarter offensive progress. Now, it’s time for the defense. In a word, it’s been dominant. They rank third in the league in total yards allowed (and fifth in pass defense) and have had multiple games this season where they’ve looked almost like the 1985 Bears for ...Philadelphia Eagles’ First Quarter Report Card: Offense
Published on: 11th October, 2009
With a 33-17 victory over the hapless Bucs in the books, the Eagles are now one-quarter of the way through the 2009 season. As such, it’s time to grade the team on the first 25% of their season and analyze what they've done in the first five weeks. I'll look at how ...Two Milestones On The Line For Andy Reid This Sunday
Published on: 7th October, 2009
Andy Reid has two milestones on the line this Sunday. The better known of the pair is that Reid’s Eagles are a perfect 10-0 following their bye week. From 1999’s bizarrely-placed Week 17 victory over St. Louis to last season’s 27-14 victory over Atlanta, the Birds are unbeaten on 14 days ...Two Milestones On The Line For Andy Reid This Sunday

Published on: 5th October, 2009
Much like a midseason replacement television show, the Philadelphia Eagles have 13 weeks to secure their spot in the “2010 lineup,” aka the playoffs. And like any aforementioned show, the first few weeks of that journey will be perhaps the most integral. Even though the combined current record of their next two ...Plea to The Eagles: Keep Vick On The Leash This Week
Published on: 26th September, 2009
It’s a proverb we all know: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. In the Eagles case, it should go something like this: If it’s broke, wait until it’s fixed to remodel it. The “it” of course is the Eagles offense, and the remodel is one Mr. Michael Vick. And as un-patriotic as ...Sunday’s Slaughter By the Saints Wasn’t All Bad For the Birds
Published on: 23rd September, 2009
Despite injuries, inconsistency and a final score that looked more like an Arena League contest than an NFL tilt, there are actually a few positives that can be plucked out of the Eagles’ performance on Sunday. I know, that might sound ludicrous given the 48-22 pounding New Orleans put on the ...Featured Sponsors
