Fantasy Football Redraft League Week 15 Report
Watch CBS News
This was supposed to be a rebuilding year for the Philadelphia Eagles. Cleaning up the mess of the last two seasons, which saw just 12 wins combined, two disappointing drafts, and a bad taste in the mouth of every fan.
Chip Kelly is an offensive mastermind, but his affect on defense and fundamentals can't be overlooked.
Despite their record, the Vikings have remained competitive throughout much of the season and Eagles Linebacker DeMeco Ryans says the players aren't taking the Vikings lightly.
Sports Illustrated has a long history of cover stories that end in disaster for the players and teams being featured.
The stories of the Sports Illustrated Jinx are many. Players that find themselves on the cover of the legendary magazine have a habit of failure in the immediate future after the issue comes out.
If being on the cover of Sports Illustrated is still considered a jinx, the Eagles don't have a quarterback who can escape it.
The Eagles are still an unproven team with a second-year quarterback and a first-year head coach leading the charge. That does not mean Nick Foles and Chip Kelly are necessarily incapable of turning the world upside down and sending a parade down Broad Street, but this is still very much an uphill battle. There is much work to be done this season.
The Eagles are alone in first place in the NFC East, but the players insist their focus is on Minnesota.
To win any fantasy football league, you need players that are able to outperform where you drafted them.
The Eagles are on a five game winning streak, have a quarterback and a coach that are the talk of the NFL, and are all alone in first place of the NFC East.
The biggest games in Eagles history have nicknames. There is the Fog Bowl, the Bounty Bowl, and the Miracle At The Meadowlands, 1, 2 and 3. Now, we have the Snow Bowl.
The Eagles announced Tuesday that Kelce is the team's Ed Block Courage Award winner.
2013 was an up and down year in Philadelphia sports, to say the least. The first half was full of "downs," including coaching changes for every professional team, and losses upon losses as well. But the second half has proved to be more positive, with some of those changes looking like positive ones.
While the Eagles are making a push for an NFC East Division championship, the Vikings are starting to make early NFL Draft plans and looking ahead to 2014. But the Vikings cannot be taken lightly, especially if Christian Ponder is back and Adrian Peterson is healthy.
