Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson has been named NFC Offensive Player Of The Week for his performance in the Eagles 36-21 win over the New York Giants.
DeSean Jackson expects to be challenged by Bucs cornerback Darrelle Revis on Sunday. DeSean Jackson expects to get the best of that matchup.
Mike Vick is listed as day-to-day, the team confirmed Monday, but having an option like Foles ready to go shows why the Eagles did not feel a need to make any trades during the preseason involving the loser of the quarterback competition.
When it comes down to it, breakout players end up deciding the fate of most fantasy football leagues. Who was able to snag them first? Who found that diamond in the rough? These players end up swinging the balance of the league and can carry a team to a championship
As the quarterback debate (it's short of a controversy right) rages on in Philadelphia, the discussion is regarding whether Nick Foles is better for the Eagles than Michael Vick. Vick was injured in the Eagles 36-21 win over the Giants, and Foles came in and impressed, throwing for two touchdowns and zero interceptions.
Not only has the last year or two in Philadelphia sports been pretty terrible, it seems like there's always a new reminder of just how terrible it's been.
The Giants may have been the worst team the Philadelphia Eagles have faced this season, but the Buccaneers are almost as much of a mess right now. Greg Schiano is likely to be looking for a new job at the end of the season unless he can pull a miracle this season.
The NFL will stop using pink penalty flags as part of their campaign to promote breast cancer awareness, the league announced today.
Chip Kelly announced that Michael Vick was "day-to-day" after an MRI revealed a pulled left hamstring and the Eagles' coach said he was unsure whether or not Vick would start at Tampa Bay on Sunday at 1 p.m.
Chip Kelly says the starting QB will be determined by "performance."
The Eagles should not get too carried away with picking up their second win in a game that saw the Giants drop to 0-5 on the season, but the defense made plays, special teams did their part and Nick Foles proved why the Eagles felt a need to keep him on the roster despite using Mike Vick as the starter.
Nick Foles gets the biggest gold star of the week, for giving us the QB controversy we need.
The Eagles have stumbled onto the top of the NFC East.
Eagles fans were breathing a little easier Sunday evening, after the team snapped their three-game losing streak.
