Eagles and Darryl Tapp Agree to Extension
News came out a couple days ago that only a few hours after the trade had taken place, the Eagles and brand new acquisition Darryl Tapp had an extension in place. No one knew the numbers, but now it appears Adam Schefter (surprise, surprise) has them.
“For those scoring at home: Eagles gave newly-acquired DE Darryl [...]
Brian Westbrook Attacks Eagles’ Front Office
Brian Westbrook is apparently extremely bitter about being released by the Eagles and is now taking his new-found freedom as an opportunity to strike back via the radio airwaves.
“The thing for them, the Eagles, it’s always money. It’s always dollar signs,” Westbrook told Dan Patrick on his radio show. “If they can find someone to [...]
If Troy Aikman Is a Hall of Famer, Then So Is McNabb
Let’s get this out of the way right off the bat: McNabb has not won three Super Bowls, nor has he even been to three Super Bowls. However, does anyone sincerely believe that McNabb has ever had half the talent that Aikman had?
Aikman spent his entire career throwing to Michael Irvin and handing off to [...]
Vikings Do What the Eagles Could Not vs. Dallas
Everyone knew how to stop the Dallas Cowboys, it was just a matter of finding a team who could execute the gameplan properly.

and ends, but thanks to a very good Cowboys’ offensive line, that plan
is easier said than done
Donovan McNab Will Stay in Philly in 2010 and Beyond
This is the last time I’ll address the Donovan McNabb situation. That is, until next offseason when all the questions and calls for his head begin again.

Eagles Sign Former Penn State Center A.Q. Shipley
In what could be the Eagles’ anticipation of life without Jamaal Jackson, the Birds have signed former Penn State and Pittsburgh Steelers center A.Q. Shipley.
Shipley was a seventh-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers last April, and was a guy I was really hoping the Eagles would target. Personally, I’m not a huge follower of NCAA [...]
How Does Jeremy Maclin Stack Up to Other Rookie Receivers?
Back in 2001, Andy Reid took a shot on a rookie receiver out of UCLA with his first round pick. He knew his quarterback needed better weapons, so drafting a receiver just made sense. Reid went with who he thought was the best of the bunch, and drafted Freddie Mitchell.
Unless you’ve been in a coma [...]
DeSean Jackson Has a Concussion
At this point, there’s no news regarding how serious it is, but Andy Reid has told the local media outlets after the game that DeSean Jackson has a concussion. He left in the third quarter after having his bell rung by London Fletcher on a crossing pattern.
The team doctors kept looking at DeSean’s eyes and [...]
Brian Westbrook’s Career Could Be Over
With the new concerns surrounding concussions, Brian Westbrook’s recent problems have gotten a lot of publicity in and outside of Philadelphia.
It’s no such much surrounding what the Eagles do with Westbrook this year, as it’s almost the consensus opinion that he head to the IR for 2009. But that’s where the opinions then [...]
Chargers Score Touchdowns, Eagles Kick Field Goals
With the score 14-6 at halftime, the Eagles are in great position to get blown out of the water.
Yes, it’s only an eight point game, but the Eagles cannot close the deal in the redzone and now twice have had to settle for field goals. They have given the Chargers all of the momentum and [...]
