The Eagles were back on the practice field today preparing to put together a string of victories to hopefully put them back in position to make the playoffs.
Andy Reid’s squad will be getting back some of their best players with Trent Cole and Jason Peters returning to practice along with second-year defensive end Brandon Graham.
Cole’s return to the defensive line will give the group more production as more depth. They’ll be able to return to the rotation which had worked so well earlier in the season. Cole can go back to being the starter at the right defensive end spot with Darryl Tapp backing him up.
Peters will hopefully be healthy on Sunday night, so he can take over at left tackle, again. This will allow the Eagles to move Todd Herremans back to right tackle, where he started at the beginning of the season.
Graham is eager to get back to work as he recovers from off season knee surgery.
“I mean, I don’t know, I’ll let the coaches answer that. They’re going to watch me this week [and] hopefully I can get out there this week. I’m going to push myself and do extra like I just did with [defensive line] coach [Jim] Wash[burn] and hopefully get me up to speed real quick.”
Hello faithful Eagle Fans,
A bit off topic I know, but I told you the week befor the Redskins game that the Eagles would not only beat the Skins, but that the Redskins would not be able to recover from that game and would spiral down the dark hole. Some of you told me to stop dreaming that D.C. run game was to strong etc.
Well there you have it in living color Skins are spiraling. Our Eagles have a lot of work to do and plenty areas to improve befor we can even dare to gloat and get stiff necked.
That said lets all hang in there and send the Boys some good Karma, so we can put an arse spanking on the Cowboys and move up the division ladder and go 2-1 in the division. I know good karma is not Philly’s strong suit but its the dang stinking Cowboys so let us just give it a shot shall we.
Right O’ old boys As always “LONG LIVE THE EAGLES”
It will be great to see Trent Cole back in action. :o)
Some good news from the Nova Care Center..
Peters was having an All-Pro Season until Injury, it would be nice to see him smack around Demarcus Ware a little bit.. and T COle should just light up this Cowboy OL and OL.. .Cowboys have good Skill Players but their OL is their weak link and the Eagles DL with Cole,Babin,Jenkins,Patterson & Tapp need to take advantage and bust it up all game long
And lets hope Murray is a one game wonder. If the Eagles get out in front early and often, I like their chances against Romo.
