Posted on 07. Sep, 2010 by Mike Burke.

There’s no hiding it, the young Eagles team will be tested right out of the gate. Many people have questioned how the Eagles will perform this year. Will some questions be answered come Sunday? Definitely. However, I think people shouldn’t be too quick to judge the outcome of Sunday’s game. Let’s look at the worst [...]

My Take on the McNabb Saga

Posted on 26. Mar, 2010 by Chris Lex.

It seems as though the unthinkable is truly going to happen. Andy Reid is more than likely going to trade his treasured QB, Donovan McNabb. The trade is now a matter of when, not if, it is going to happen. Over the past three months, McNabb’s name has been linked to about as many teams, [...]

Well, we’re finally here. It’s playoff time. Do or die. Win or go home. The Eagles have very familiar opponents in the Dallas Cowboys matching up with them for the third time.

Should we be worried after Sunday’s performance?

Posted on 06. Jan, 2010 by Mike Burke.

Throughout the week I’ve been seeing some people say the Eagles don’t have a chance after the way they played last week and some people say it was just an off week for the team. It’s hard to completely dismiss the effort the team put out last week, but it’s hard to believe they could [...]

Who’s going to step up on Saturday?

Posted on 05. Jan, 2010 by Mike Burke.

No one really stepped up last week and made plays for the Eagles. You could argue and say that Brent Celek did, but he contributed to an offense that scored zero points so its hard to give him too much credit. This week has got to be different. If the Eagles want to win, they [...]

Will third time be the charm for the Birds?

Posted on 05. Jan, 2010 by Mike Burke.

It doesn’t feel good losing to the Cowboys twice in one season. Losing to them three times in one season, and in back to back games would be an absolute embarrassment. However, that is the exact situation the Eagles face this Saturday night with their season on the line. In the first meeting of the [...]
