Around the League: Week Five Recap
Posted on 12. Oct, 2010 by Brennen Dickerson.
I am furious with myself. Absolutely furious. 7-7 is unacceptable in my book and I pride myself every season in being someone who can out pick the experts. I find solace with the fact that I don’t know anyone who did well this weekend. But, let’s take a look at the games anyway. (Teams I’m [...]

Around the League: Week Five NFL Picks
Posted on 09. Oct, 2010 by Brennen Dickerson.
14 games. 14 shots at looking like a genius. 14 shots of looking like an idiot. Last week several folks called me out for my picks, calling me something along the lines of “uneducated moron who doesn’t understand the game.” Those weren’t the exact words but they were the exact meaning. And to all those [...]

Frank Gore and Vernon Davis: Potential Disaster for the Eagles on Sunday?
Posted on 07. Oct, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Looking back to last week’s loss to the Redskins, things didn’t look good early. The Eagles were put in a 14-0 hole in the first quarter in their own house. Washington did this by scoring with a running back and then a tight end. This week, the Eagles will see a better running back and [...]

Posted on 06. Oct, 2010 by Mike Burke.
In this week’s Invading the Nest series, I was able to ask Joshua Russell, of NinersNuggets.com, some questions about his beloved 49ers. His team may be sitting at the bottom of their division with an 0-4 record, but they’re definitely much better then their record indicates. Read below to see Josh’s feelings on his 49ers [...]

Around the League: Week Four Recap
Posted on 05. Oct, 2010 by Brennen Dickerson.
What a wild weekend it was (three cheers for alliteration). I’m fairly disappointed in myself for not seeing a few upsets coming, but it’s still early and I have a lot of picks to make. Fun addition to this column. My picks will be italicized and the winning team will be in bold. If I [...]

Weighing in on the Great McNabb Debate
Posted on 01. Oct, 2010 by Brennen Dickerson.
His jersey still hangs in my closet. It’s that heinous baby blue and yellow throwback jersey that the Eagles wore against the Lions. I love those jerseys for some reason. There’s a small barbecue sauce stain on the front. I haven’t worn it for several months. It’s not my preference to wear the jersey of [...]

Every season there’s the game you circle on the calendar. The game that you just cannot wait for. Well my friends, here it is. Donovan McNabb, love him or hate him, is returning to Lincoln Financial Field in a maroon and gold jersey. I have only one question: Why is this not in prime time? [...]

Posted on 30. Sep, 2010 by Brennen Dickerson.
I feel like I’m starting to get back into the swing of things. Granted, this past weekend also had a lot of very easy games to pick. There were a few big upsets though. Titans @ Giants – I remember all the Giants fans that I know laughing at me when I said I really [...]

Around the League: Week Three NFL Picks
Posted on 26. Sep, 2010 by Brennen Dickerson.
Titans @ Giants – Picking the Titans in the upset. I think CJ will have a field day against the G-men. Also, VY plays well when he has something to prove. Bengals @ Panthers – Bengals defense has been stifling and Carson Palmer, Batman, and Robin will take advantage of a weak Carolina secondary. Bengals [...]

Week Three Preview: Jacksonville Jaguars
Posted on 23. Sep, 2010 by Mike Burke.
The Eagles will look to get above the .500 mark this week, traveling down to Jacksonville to face a very mediocre Jaguars team. There has been plenty of drama in Philadelphia this week, and it seems as though we’ll have to focus on this Eagles team in a short-term sense for a while. Today we [...]
