Sean Jones Should Be a Starter for the Eagles

Right now, Quintin Demps is taking all of the reps with the first-team defense, while Sean Jones is running with the second team and contributing on special teams wherever he can. However, I’m not sold on Demps quite yet, and I’m not sure that he should be handed the starting role, as seems to be [...]

The Good and Bad Notes From Training Camp: Morning Practice

I’ve said it before, but let me say it again; You will remember the name LeSean McCoy. The Harrisburg, PA native was electric in individual drills, as well as team drills.

An Eagles’ Fan Perspective on the Giants Rivalry Games of 2009

The Giants were not the same in the final quarter of 2008 as they finished their season without Plaxico Burress, but in fairness, his sudden long term departure left Tom Coughlin little opportunity to adjust his game plan. While the Eagles now match up better against the Giants without Plaxico, the remainder of the team is in tact, [...]

Why the Eagles’ Young Linebackers Are Crucial to the Team’s Success

Defense wins ballgames. Everyone knows that. The Eagles have themselves a very good defense. The defensive line is among the best in the game and the secondary is deep and experienced. With Pro Bowl end Trent Cole and underrated stars Mike Patterson and Brodrick Bunkley anchoring the interior, the line will thrive as always in [...]

Kevin Curtis isn’t the Eagles Best Option to Start at Wide Receiver

Despite my gut instinct, I have to admit that I didn’t have the courage to make this statement until Eagles aficianado, Tommy Lawlor, scribed a similar question regarding Kevin Curtis’ 2007 production.  I haven’t been biting my tongue but I have reserved my writing. I’ve been thinking this way prior to the Eagles drafting of Jeremy Maclin, but now the deal is [...]

Eight Offensive Play-Calling Changes Andy Reid Should Consider for 2009

In general, Andy Reid does a great job managing all of his duties as the Philadelphia Eagles’ head coach and Head of Football Operations.
