I told everyone when Kolb was drafted he was a waste….Day one….Current bums on our team that will never amount to anything….Chad Hall & Riley Cooper…why do these bums make the 53 every year? There’s guy by the name of Plaxico Burress who would actually contribute if signed while we waste valuable space for these guys who are waste.

Could you imagine…..that could have been OUR starting QB? For those that complain of Vick, the grass isn’t always greener on the other side… ::shutters to think::

Kolb is not a NFL Starting QB, he’s a back-up at best and has a tendancy at the first sight of pressure, to panic and run deep out of the pocket instead of stepping up.. He looks like he has gotten worse as far as footwork and mechanics since going to the CArdinals.. I think CArdinals go with B john SKelton as their Starter and Kolb will get released after the 2012 Season..They have already paid him a $7 Million Roster Bonus and it’s hard to believe that Kolb has earned almost $30 Million in his 5 Year Career without really doing much to earn 1/10th of that…

I saw some of the game. I missed kolb’s pick, but I did see when he got injured. It looked like Clay Matthews disguised as a cardinal… Just dragged kolb down and injured him. The line didnt look too good, but kolb just looks spooked out there.. The defensive players look alot bigger and nastier when chasing kolb. lol

Kolb looked ridiculous yesterday…the bum ripped off 2 teams for millions and played worse than Jamaecus Russel.

Kolb blew a gaket again today and got put out in the 1st Quarter. Glad we got rid of the bum. Chad hall and Cooper are next; they both suck.

Good stuff G-Man, I called DT Cedric Thornton rise as the surprise player in Camp and definitely think he’s makes the 53 Man Roster..I also called and expected Safety Atogwe’s struggles not only to win a Starter’s Spot which I think is not goign to happen, but he may struggle to even make the final 53 Man Roster..
I think Eagles Carry 5-DE (Cole,Babin,Graham,Hunt & Curry)
Darryl Tapp gets traded by the end of Camp to the Patriots for 6th Round
PIck)
5 DT’s will be Jenkins,Dixon,Cox,Landri and Thornton
(M Patterson placed on PUP list, then to IR list and then retires next off-season , I don’t ever see him playing a game for the Eagles again

Eagles can have Jenkins and Cox line up as DE based on going Big with Dixon and Thornton inside on certain packages versus heavy running teams like the Steelers and Ravens or in short-yardage and red-zone situations,.. which would be a tough Front 4 to move the ball against on the ground

On a side note, how is LB Monte Simmons looked ths Camp, does he have a chance to stick now that Fokou/Lloys have been traded,, He has some size but can he play out in space .. whats your thoughts on Simmons

G,
This is what we like to hear from you. Relay your experience to us and tell us what these guys are doing well and not so well. Talk about angles and why they are important and how the coaches stress them and correct for bad ones. Talk about what linebackers see that they react to like stance, body positon, etc. to determine run vs. pass vs. screen.

Give us the good stuff that you were trained in. Give us behind the scenes.

No worries. Many of these are just tweaks and most of them will be fine for the opener. Cooper is the only one so far that has any substantial injury. He’ll be back by week 4.

First preseason game hasn’t even been played and they are already injury riddled
