Although the defense has struggled in all aspects, the most glaring has been their run defense. They made some adjustments [...]

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 [...]

Head Coach Obituaries: Andy Reid, 1999-2011
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 [...]

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.
