Each Philadelphia major sports team has a new head coach, and fans are starting to develop opinions on each of them.
Don't be suckered in to thinking the Eagles are getting lucky by playing a Packers team without one of the top quarterbacks in the league suiting up. Instead, realize the Eagles may be getting a break playing a team that is all of a sudden a bit of a mystery.
Every football team catches good and bad breaks during the season. The Eagles are catching a very good one this week.
Nick Foles' performance on Sunday was record-tying, and the Football Hall Of Fame is going to make sure it's not forgotten.
Aaron Rodgers plays Sunday, Eagles fans get the opportunity to see one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. If Aaron Rodgers doesn't play on Sunday, the Eagles likely have a better chance to win. If given the choice, Eagles fans selected the latter.
The matchup on Sunday was supposed to be the quarterback who just tied the record for the most TD passes in one game in Nick Foles, against one of the very best quarterbacks in the league in Aaron Rodgers. It looks like we'll only get half of that.
Slightly overshadowed by the musical chairs the Eagles have been playing at quarterback, the Eagles defense each week seems to be improving.
We've seen Nick Foles at his utmost worst just a few weeks ago. And on Sunday, after tossing an NFL-record tying seven touchdowns in the Eagles' 49-20 thumping of the Oakland Raiders, we've also seen him at his incredible best.
Chip Kelly says he doesn't know why Nick Foles was so bad against the Cowboys, and so good against the Raiders.
Sunday's win in Oakland was the most complete team victory of the season for the Eagles. You can never get too carried away with one game, but this was a flat out dominant performance by the Eagles and perhaps a glimpse once again as to what the future could be like with Chip Kelly in charge.
The most exciting thing about covering the Philadelphia Eagles this year is that it seems like we have a new team to cover every week.
The Eagles' offense emerged to smash the Oakland Raiders 49-20 Sunday, behind an NFL-tying seven touchdown passes from Nick Foles.
The quarterback situation has been a constant story for the Eagles this season. This week Nick Foles worked his way back and practiced in full practices this week. With Foles available the Eagles avoid having to start rookie Matt Barkley.
Arguably the best hitter in baseball, the Detroit Tigers' Miguel Cabrera is in town, and he's making sure he gets the full Philadelphia sports experience.
