Nobody was surprised, but I still can’t help but shake my head as the Eagles say good-bye to Nnamdi Asomugha after only two years. He was considered the number one free agent signing a couple of years ago, but nothing went right on the field for Asomugha when he was in an Eagles uniform.
He was [...]

CSNPhilly.com’s Reuben Frank says the Eagles are interested in acquiring two Pro Bowl safeties, Dashon Goldson and Laron Landry, once free agency starts today. The Birds have some serious problems at the safety position and adding either Goldson or Landry would be a way of remedying the problem.
Goldson has played for the San Francisco 49ers [...]

There’s no way in the world the Eagles should be pursuing the Jets Superstar cornerback Darrelle Revis. Yes, he has been the best cornerback in the league for a while, in fact he’s been the best player in the National Football League for a number of years. Who else could blanket the best wide receivers [...]

First there was a report and tweet by Howard Eskin of 94WIP and FOX29 earlier today that the Birds were going to release cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha today. Then there was a tweet by Philly.com’s Jeff McLane that the Eagles weren’t going to release Asomugha today.
Now Eskin is admitting that his tweet this morning about the [...]

Early last season, I had heard a rumor about Eagles cornerback Nmandi Asomugha going to his car to eat his lunch so he could make some calls on his phone to run his affairs outside of football such as; his foundation, speaking schedule and endorsement deals. He has a team of professionals who help him [...]

If you are a member of the “Get Rid Of Nnamdi Asomugha” club, you’re going to be disappointed at a report by Jeff McLane of Philly.com. He says the Eagles are talking to Asomugha’s agent about negotiating a pay cut so that the cornerback can stay with the ball club.
He’s scheduled to make $15.5 million [...]

Last summer at Lehigh University, I saw Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie have one of the best training camp of any cornerback I’ve been around. He was picking off a couple of passes in each practice. He was dominating all the Eagles wide receivers and seemed to be headed for a Pro Bowl season.
Unfortunately by the time the [...]

I have heard and read various opinions concerning whether the Eagles should hang onto or release last year’s starting cornerbacks Nnamdi Asomugha and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. I believe Chip Kelly has got to get rid of both of them.
There’s nothing that poisons a young team more than highly-paid, talented players, who set poor examples by either [...]

For years Eagles head coach Andy Reid has gone out of way to protect his players. He’s still doing that but not nearly as much. It could because he’s on his way out or there could be another reason. It could be a way to shine light on the poor job done by talent evaluator [...]

The touchdowns which were scored by Dez Bryant and Miles Austin were not defended the way NFL defensive backs are supposed to defend NFL pass plays. The effort wasn’t there from Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and Nnamdi Asomugha.
This cannot and should not be tolerated. The lack of effort and lack of willingness to tackle was there for [...]
