Around the League, Week 5 Picks
Posted on 08. Oct, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
College has a funny way of violently consuming all of my time. It’s really convenient. As such, I am down to pretty much only having time to give you wonderful people a league preview article each week. I apologize for the inconvenience. I don’t think I need to tell you but last weekend I once [...]

Eagle Eye View: Time to Move on From Big Red?
Posted on 05. Oct, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
Another week is in the books, but absolutely nothing has changed. The Eagles fell apart in the second half yet again, and there are plenty of blame to be spread around. Andy Reid continues to do an awful job coaching this team. The amount of talent this team has brought in is incredible, but they [...]

Eagles Lose to 49ers, Fall to 1-3.
Posted on 02. Oct, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
“An absolutely terrible job by myself and my football team today.” You are 100% correct there Mr. Reid. This was nothing short of a terrible game. At the same time, we cant help but not be surprised at seeing the defense collapse in the fourth quarter and the offense sputter at the same time. We [...]

Around the League: Week 4 Preview
Posted on 30. Sep, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
I will apologize upfront for not getting a league recap article out to you this week. I’m afraid that’s one of the many side effects of taking almost a full course load of production based classes. Last week I managed to scrape out another 12-4 record. I sensing a pattern here. As always, my picks [...]

Welcome to favorites week at BirdsFan.com! If you want to make your life easy by skipping this article, I’ll go ahead and tell you that I’m not taking a single underdog. I know, I know. It’s very boring of me. But, what can I say? I’m not going to pick someone I don’t think will [...]

Around the League: Week 2 Recap
Posted on 21. Sep, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
This may be one of my best starts yet. Normally I stumble during one of the first two weeks. This season I went 12-4 each week. Here’s hoping the streak continues. It was a fun week 2 in the NFL with lots of points scored and not a lot of defense. However, where there was [...]

Looking at the Positives and Negatives from the Eagles in Week Two
Posted on 20. Sep, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
I hate night games. I really do. Well, I hate when the Eagles play night games. Why? Because no matter what the outcome is, I will be up late thinking about the game. Losses are the worst. Losses that shouldn’t have been loses are the absolutely worst. The Eagles had every right to win this [...]

Posted on 17. Sep, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
The giddiness is still very much alive. I just love this time of year. We have baseball and division races all over the place. We have college football (Go Temple! Beat Penn State!). And most importantly, we have the NFL. The giddiness will last all season. As with each week, I’m here to bring you [...]

Talk about a wild week one. You had some great defenses, some brilliant offenses, upsets, games coming down to the wire, and record setting performances. Man, I missed the NFL. Sign me up for ten more years of this. All in all, yours truly had a pretty good week. I’m not pleased with a few [...]

Looking at the Positives and Negatives from the Eagles in Week One
Posted on 12. Sep, 2011 by Brennen Dickerson.
Well, I certainly feel a lot better than I did about a year ago. Last season the Eagles got rocked by the Packers in Philadelphia, lost Kevin Kolb and Stewart Bradley to injury, and lost a close game. It was far different Sunday, with the Eagles beating down the Rams 31-13. Each week I’ll be [...]
