Evaluating Michael Vick’s Performance Against the Cowboys
Posted on 31. Oct, 2011 by Mike Burke.
Michael Vick has struggled this season. I think it’s pretty fair to say that. However, when the Eagles needed him most, in a must win divisional game against the Cowboys, Vick brought his A-game. Without a question, this was by far Vick’s best game of the season. Statistically, he completed 75% of his passes, while [...]

Although it seems like this has been the scenario just about every week so far this year, the Eagles were facing a must win game. It seemed the Eagles were very aware of this as they came out firing on all cylinders from the very first snap. Michael Vick had a very impressive game. He [...]

5 Keys to Beating the Cowboys on Sunday Night
Posted on 27. Oct, 2011 by Mike Burke.
Yet again, the Eagles head into another “must win” type of matchup. The fact that the NFC East has been playing inconsistently as a whole means the Eagles still have a chance to win the division. However, they have a lot of work to do, and the first hurdle is taking down the Cowboys this [...]

Eagles Defense Will Need to Have Statement Game Against Cowboys
Posted on 24. Oct, 2011 by Mike Burke.
There’s no denying the fact that the majority of the Eagles struggles have come on the defensive side of the ball this year. The offense hasn’t been stellar, but the defense has been far worse.

Can Brandon Graham Still Have an Impact During 2011 Season?
Posted on 24. Oct, 2011 by Mike Burke.
During the 2010 season, Brandon Graham didn’t perform at the level everyone hoped he would. The Eagles made him their guy when they traded up to get him in the draft, and this set the bar very high. To add to Graham’s disappointing 2010 campaign, he had his season cut short when he suffered a [...]

Eagles Prove Their Resiliency, At Least For A Week
Posted on 19. Oct, 2011 by Andrew Gross.
Sunday’s win was necessary on so many levels. After four straight losses, the Eagles were staring a 1-5 start directly in the face. At 1-4, your chances of making the playoffs are extremely slim, but it’s happened before. But, at 1-5, you can start planning your OTAs and Training Camp right then. Also, this was [...]

Posted on 11. Oct, 2011 by Andrew Gross.
Pissed off. Frustrated. Furious. Angry. Embarrassed. Hopeless. These are the different emotions I have felt since the Eagles 31-24 loss in Buffalo. I’m sure many of you feel the same. Every single one of them is justified. This team is in a complete state of disarray. They are flailing. They’re a wounded deer waiting to [...]
