I like the Eagles chances in this weekend’s NFC Championship game. Quarterback Nick Foles seems to have gained a great deal of confidence from his success against the Falcons. Foles went into the Atlanta game with a “cloud of doubt” over his head. He was tentative in the pocket and played poorly in the last […]

You’ve got to give the Eagles defense most of the credit for the win, especially cornerback Ronald Darby for the interception and kicker Jake Elliot for the great kick. The Birds pulled out a 13-10 win over the Oakland Raiders on Monday night in front of the nation, but it wasn’t an impressive performance by […]

Doug Pederson just finished his Friday morning news conference and he emphasized that he doesn’t need his players to try to do more than their job. He doesn’t want offensive players trying to do more than their assignment because Nick Foles is the team’s starting quarterback and not Carson Wentz.
This starts with Foles. He doesn’t […]

I’m highlighting three plays which occurred in the Seattle game that must avoided in the upcoming contest against the Rams.
The first play which I single out is a play involving a LeGarrette Blount 12-yard run in the red zone to the Seahawks four-yard line. The run would have set up a probable Eagles touchdown, but […]

The Eagles failed to learn their lessons from the numerous fumbles they had in their easy win over the Chicago Bears. Chicago had no chance in the game, but they were able to force the Eagles to fumble three times in the game and they recovered two of them.
Veteran running back LeGarrette Blount took off […]

I know the Eagles loss to the Seahawks was very painful because it ended at nine game winning streak by the Birds, but I think it could wind up helping the Philadelphia team in the long run. The Eagles will need to take a sober look at their performance against the Seahawks and that starts […]

Everyone was celebrating after the Eagles 31-3 domination of the Chicago Bears. It wasn’t much of a contest as the Eagles held Chicago’s explosive running game to six yards. Jordan Howard and Tarik Cohen had no where to go because the Birds defensive line plays the game in the opposing team’s backfield. They don’t give […]

One of the biggest surprises for the Eagles has been the play of second-year cornerback, Jalen Mills. He was drafted in the seventh round in the 2016 draft. He came in with a spotted resume because he had gotten in some trouble off the field while at LSU.
Mills came in with confidence, but he didn’t […]

We got our first chance to see Carson Wentz and Jay Ajayi play together. Things seemed to go well, especially after Ajayi took off on a long touchdown run for the Eagles. Wentz was sharp as usual with a four-touchdown performance.
The Birds took advantage of Ajayi’s presence in the game by faking the ball to […]

The Eagles drafted a running back in the fourth round, but it wasn’t Wisconsin’s Corey Clement, it was San Diego State’s Donnell Pumphrey. Of course we all know what happened with Clement proving he’s better prepared to play on the NFL level than the undersized Pumphrey.
Clement has earned more and more playing time for […]
