Is the Media Evil or Is DeSean Jackson Saying Too Much?
Posted on 13. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
DeSean Jackson has been finding himself in the headlines a lot this week. One interview with the Sporting News has turned into a giant fiasco, pitting Jackson against his former quarterback and his offensive coordinator. When Jackson took the interview, I don’t think he had any intentions of bad mouthing, throwing under the bus, or [...]

Posted on 12. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
The Eagles played host to the San Francisco 49ers in Week Fifteen with large mounds of snow in the parking lot and freezing temperatures in the stadium. Despite the poor weather, the Birds knew that they could clinch a playoff birth with a victory. Keeping that in mind, the Eagles came out with an impressive [...]

Why Kevin Kolb Will Have a Better 2010 Season Than Donovan McNabb
Posted on 11. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Let me start by saying that I’m writing this with no disrespect to Donovan McNabb and I’m not one of the “haters.” However, I truly believe that Kevin Kolb will have better numbers and a more successful season in Philadelphia than Donovan McNabb will have in Washington. Here’s why: To start, Kevin Kolb is just [...]

DeSean Jackson and Kevin Kolb: Legacy in the Making?
Posted on 10. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
In two years with Donovan McNabb, we’ve seen DeSean Jackson make plays with his blazing speed time after time. In two games in the 2009 season, we’ve seen Kevin Kolb throw for over 300 yards in both efforts. Now, the two players will consistently line up next to one another and try to make magic [...]

Which Eagles Rookies Can Have an Immediate Impact
Posted on 07. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Over the past few seasons, we’ve seen some players come out of the draft and make immediate impacts for the team. Although this isn’t always expected, it’s very nice when it happens. The Eagles are hoping that some of their 2010 draft picks will see significant play time come the opener against Green Bay. The [...]

New Buzz for the New Eagles
Posted on 06. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
There’s no denying it, there is a new look to the Eagles now. A lot of this is because the Birds traded away their franchise quarterback that was a staple in the organization for a decade. His heir, Kevin Kolb, will take over the offense and is surrounded by loads of young weapons. This young [...]

DeSean Jackson Showing the Right Attitude
Posted on 04. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
DeSean Jackson is a pretty vocal person and isn’t afraid to speak his mind. He has performed at a level the Eagles could have only dreamed of and he’s definitely one of those players who are outperforming their contract. When Jackson hired Drew Rosenhaus last season, I was scared of what would become of it. [...]

What Can We Expect from Stacy Andrews?
Posted on 03. May, 2010 by Mike Burke.
Stacy Andrews had a disappointing 2009 season to say the least. After being a solid player in Cincinnati, Andrews was brought in to join his brother on the offensive line where the Eagles were definitely in need of help. However, much like younger brother Shawn, Stacy did not live up to the Eagles’ expectations. He [...]

Impact of a Stewart Bradley Return
Posted on 29. Apr, 2010 by Mike Burke.
The Eagles defense had some obvious struggles last year. One of the problems that stuck out most existed with the linebackers. Sean McDermott was forced into making up a bunch of different lineups and the team had to try to bring in players not on the team already to fix the problem. So when did [...]
