Posted on 11. Aug, 2010 by Mike.
When people speak about the Eagles wide receivers, the focus tends to be on the one-two combination of DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin. You can’t really blame them, but Jason Avant is just as big of a part of this wide receiver group as the other two.
Avant is the workhorse of the wide receiver [...]

What Will the Eagles do if Kevin Kolb Struggles?
Posted on 09. Aug, 2010 by Chris.
After the Eagles ended the 2009 season in embarrassing fashion, there was a sense that a dramatic change was on the horizon.

Eagles Defense Only as Good as the Front Four
Posted on 06. Aug, 2010 by Chris.
The Eagles come into the season with a front four on the defensive line that could be deadly. Currently the starting defensive line will consist of all-pro DE Trent Cole, DT Brodrick Bunkley, DT Mike Patterson, and either vertern DE Juqua Parker or high-motored Rookie DE Brandon Graham. There have been many departures on [...]

Kevin Kolb Does NOT Play Air Guitar
Posted on 06. Aug, 2010 by Mike.
Don’t be upset. There’s plenty of other things he can do. Putting that aside, let’s take a look at two scenarios:
Player A: Incomplete pass. Laughter.
Player B: Incomplete pass. Expletive.
Know the two players I’ve described? If you don’t, Player A doesn’t play for the Eagles anymore, but Player B does. [...]

Eagles Coaching Staff: A Year Older, A Year Wiser
Posted on 04. Aug, 2010 by Mike.
For many young players, people expect them to show improvement after getting a year under the belt. However, no one ever talks about coaching doing the same thing. In 2010, I expect the Eagles coaching staff to improve their performance.
The first person I look at is Eagles defensive coordinator Sean McDermott. Last [...]

Posted on 03. Aug, 2010 by Mike.
It seems that there is always a young player at their first Eagles Training Camp who seems to quickly turn into the “fan favorite.” This year that guy has been wide receiver Riley Cooper, also known as Sunshine by his teammates.

Eagles head coach Andy Reid answered a number of questions in an interview with Dave Spadaro today. One of the things Spadaro asked him about was the media’s perspective of the 2010 Eagles. It was noted that the Eagles were considered as a front runner for the Super Bowl over the past few [...]

Who Will Be the Eagles Breakout Players in 2010?
Posted on 27. Jul, 2010 by Mike.
It seems that there is a player or two every year that go above and beyond expectations. For example, I’m sure everyone thought it was a great move when the Eagles brought in fullback Leonard Weaver last year. However, I don’t think anyone was really expecting him to have the type of season [...]
