Michael Vick is coming back to Philadelphia wearing a different shade of green and a new uniform number.
For an ephemeral, enchanted moment, he was the man, monolith, the king of New York, in the rare thin are of city stardom that all athletes dream of.
Vick, now the backup to Geno Smith with the Jets, is expected to take a few snaps Thursday night when he returns to Philadelphia in the teams' preseason finale.
Jeremy Maclin is not going to have to be Jerry Rice or Terrell Owens. He merely needs to be a receiver for Nick Foles, while the tight ends help chip in the rest of the production in the passing game.
The Carolina Panthers cut the face of the franchise, Steve Smith, and let the only other three wide receivers on the roster that caught a pass last season leave as free agents. Tight end Greg Olsen is the only proven receiver returning from last season's squad. Olsen should be Cam Newton's favorite target this season.
Shots fired. Or not. Mark Sanchez insists he wasn't taking a swipe at Jets fans when he noted how much "nicer" fans have been in Philadelphia.
There are a good amount of teams this season that will be looking to their quarterbacks to bring everything together to be on the winning path. Here is my list of quarterbacks that need a big 2014 season....
The NFC East is a division that will be there for the taking in 2014. Three of the teams – including the Giants – appeared to improve in the draft. Let's take a look...
Tebow insists he's not done trying to make it as an NFL quarterback. It's a good thing a certain Eagles star isn't his agent.
Sorry, Jets fans. The Redskins are getting a three-time Pro Bowl receiver with speed, someone who singlehandedly can change a defense's approach.
NJ.com released an explosive report Friday that said the Eagles were worried about Jackson's ties to reputed Los Angeles gang members.
Kelly should understand that and he should have moved in a different direction. However, his ego is too monumental. He believes he can take an also-ran and turn him into a winning quarterback.
While Michael Vick will compete with Geno Smith for the starting job in New York, Mark Sanchez is coming to Philadelphia as insurance.
The latest development comes on the heels of a report saying the Eagles were prepared to release Jackson if a trading partner -- cough, Jets, cough -- couldn't be found.
Well, that didn't take long. Three days after being released by the Jets, Mark Sanchez appears to be on the verge of finding a new home.
In other words, the free-agent QB won't be immediately typecast as a backup. But he shouldn't expect to be handed the starting job, either.
Jets GM John Idzik needs to make a signing here. He should do it because, quite honestly, Geno Smith is not the answer at quarterback.
The Jets could use a headline-grabbing move, and the Eagles are reportedly fielding calls on three-time Pro Bowler DeSean Jackson. Sound like a fit to you?
Nick Foles threw 29 touchdown passes, including two against the Saints, and only two interceptions, setting an NFL record for best TD/interception ratio. His passer rating of 119.2 was the third-highest in NFL history. He finished 8-3 as a starter.
The New Orleans Saints finally came up with the right plan for outdoor playoff football in cold weather. It got them their first postseason road victory.
Ten years after Drew Brees led Westlake High School to the Texas state championship, Nick Foles came along and broke many of his passing records but couldn't deliver another title for the Austin-based school.
The New Orleans Saints are ready to head to Philadelphia, face the Eagles, battle the cold, and forget about their road woes. They are looking healthier than they have this entire season and have an injury list that is extremely short, but there is one big name that sits on it.
