Big Blue hopes they are not seeing red when DeSean Jackson touches the ball on Sunday. The Eagles – from head coach Andy Reid to his players – were asked all week about what they expected from the Giants when the whistle blows to start the first game between the two teams game since the […]
Michael Zordich scored the game-winning touchdown against Temple 34 yards. That’s how close the Temple Owls came to ending their 70 year losing streak to Penn State but Mike Girardi was sacked by Sean Stanley on a fourth-and-10 play from the Nittany Lions 34-yard line and Penn State 14-10 win on Saturday afternoon at Lincoln […]
Mike Vick is not looking for warm reception in Atlanta. Photo by Pete Lerro The new-look Eagles got through their first week with a win and no significant injuries. This group – especially the offensive line – is a week older and hopefully a week wiser. Right guard Kyle DeVan, who was an Eagle a […]
Mike Vick survived the final cut. When NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said the fans had spoken about their distaste for the preseason, he must have been referring to a game like the Eagles-Jets played in front of an Arena League-level crowd at the New Meadowlands Stadium known now as MetLife Stadium. In a stadium at […]
Bernard Pierce scored three touchdowns in the Temple win In the previous two games where Villanova and Temple battled for the Mayor’s Cup, the contests were close and decided late in the fourth quarter. In Thursday night’s game at Lincoln Financial Field, by the time it got to the late part of the fourth quarter […]

Vick was better against Brown, but spent too much time on his butt. The Eagles offense showed it still has a way to go after Thursday night’s preseason game against the Cleveland Browns at the Linc. But the starters did appear to make some strides after last week’s debacle in Pittsburgh. The Eagles (2-1) raced […]
Mike Vick wants to make things right after poor play against Pittsburgh last week. Against the Pittsburgh Steelers in last Thursday’s second preseason game, the Eagles starters looked more like rookies overwhelmed by the speed of the game than a team that has been tabbed the “Dream Team” because of all the high profile free […]
DeSean Jackson decided to report to training camp on Monday August 8. Eagles star receiver DeSean Jackson ended his holdout, reporting to Lehigh just one day before he would lose a year of free agency not to mention the threat of a $30,000.00 a day fine for missing camp after August 9. Jackson – drafted […]
