Projecting the Remainder of Michael Vick’s Career Year By Year
Posted on 20. Jun, 2011 by Mike Burke.
The only thing we know for certain right now is that Michael Vick will be the Eagles quarterback in 2011. He signed his franchise tender to ensure that, but the Eagles weren’t able to work out a long-term deal before the lockout became in affect. Both sides want to work a deal out, but they [...]

Posted on 20. Jun, 2011 by Mike Burke.
Although DeSean Jackson recorded a career low in receptions in 2010, he was still a big threat for the Eagles.

6 Reasons Michael Vick Will Be Even Better in 2011
Posted on 07. Jun, 2011 by Mike Burke.
Michael Vick’s season last year came out of nowhere. He went into the season as Kevin Kolb’s backup, and we didn’t expect to see him on the field in anything else than the wildcat package. Clay Matthews changed all of that when he took out Kolb in the season opener. It’s still a weird thing [...]

The biggest story line this offseason for the Eagles has been trading Kevin Kolb.

There may be no guarantee for an NFL season next year, but I can’t help but look forward to it. After last year, it’s hard to believe the Eagles can’t win another division title. There were some serious holes the team needed to address, and they haven’t had the ability to do so without free [...]

Eagles Linebackers: Are They Undersized or Doesn’t Size Matter?
Posted on 26. May, 2011 by Mike Burke.
There’s often a lot of criticism about the Eagles defense having undersized players. Namely, people often discuss the defensive ends and linebackers. Looking at the linebacker position in recent history, the Eagles haven’t really had that player that scares opposing offenses.

As the lockout continues, we still await trades and free agency. Sure, we have an idea of what we believe will happen when the period opens up. However, there are multiple options out there so it’s hard to be positive what the Eagles will do. Despite not knowing who will stay or go, there are [...]

Could Victor Abiamiri Finally Make an Impact for the Eagles in 2011?
Posted on 18. May, 2011 by Mike Burke.
It seems like we’ve been asking this question for a few years now. However, with the current injury status of Brandon Graham, there would be no better time for Victor Abiamiri to step up than now.

The Great Debate on Eagles Signing Nnamdi Asomugha
Posted on 12. May, 2011 by Mike Burke.
It seems that most Eagles fans really want the team to strongly pursue Nnamdi Asomugha when free agency finally opens. They have a need for a corner who can step into the lineup immediately, so why not go out and get the best option? Lining up Asomugha opposite of Asante Samuel would really give quarterbacks [...]
