Philadelphia Eagles
After a Week 1 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Eagles prepared for a Monday night showdown with the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. Now, they are working toward the first divisional game of the season, Sunday’s meeting with the Washington Redskins. Here are the stories from this week. Monday, Sept. 15 Kevin Durso provided […]
When you think of college ties in the NFL, you think of the many colleges and universities across America that sent athletes to the highest level of football. You think of coaches who also go from making adjustments and building a program every four years to bidding for Super Bowls. You may even think of […]
The Eagles needed another second-half comeback to pull off their second win of the season. This one involved much more drama and a lot of critical plays late in the game. Darren Sproles stole the show, but it was Malcolm Jenkins and Nick Foles adding their own key plays to the film this week. Here […]
It’s a happy Tuesday morning as the Eagles defied the odds and reversed the course of fate. It wasn’t Andrew Luck delivering a game-winning drive, but Nick Foles, Darren Sproles and the Eagles. So the Eagles are 2-0. That’s the good. The bad is that they struggled through the first 30 minutes once again and […]
There was a general theme that kept coming to mind while watching the second half storyline develop on Monday. For as bad as the Eagles were in the first half and as bad as their tendencies continued to be in the second half, how were they still keeping up with the Colts? Last year, the […]
Much like their Week 1 game, the first half for the Eagles was forgettable. In the second half, they made it a game again. Trailing 17-6 at the half, the Eagles notched two quick scores to even the score late in the third. That didn’t stop the Colts from making a quick scoring drive of […]
Week 1 featured a less than desirable route to a season-opening win for the Eagles. The Colts drew the defending AFC Champions in their season opener and lost. So the task for the Eagles in Week 2 is to deliver a bounce-back game against a team hungry for its first win of the season. To […]
The Eagles first week was defined by a troublesome first-half performance that resolved itself in the second. That was against a Jaguars team that spent Sunday getting stomped by the Kirk Cousins-led Washington Redskins. A similar performance for the Eagles against the Indianapolis Colts will almost definitely put them in the same spot as Washington […]
A good first impression can mean everything. The Eagles didn't make the best first impression but still won. That was more than the rest of their NFC East counterparts could say. The division struggled as a whole. But only one team claimed a win: the Eagles. In going around the NFL this week, here's a […]
The Eagles stayed relatively injury-free in 2013. Following Week 1, they wouldn't be able to avoid the injuries. Two offensive linemen suffered injuries on Sunday, most notably all-pro guard Evan Mathis. Mathis was placed on injured reserve with designation to return on Tuesday. Mathis is not able to practice for six weeks and will not […]
