Eagles secondary looks healthy

At certain points this week Lito Sheppard, Joselio Hanson, and Brian Dawkins all missed practice. That combination of players missing would make for a pretty thin secondary going into a big game... but the good news is that on Friday all three guys were full participants in practice and will play.

Also limited in practice this week was Brian Westbrook, who also returned for a full practice Friday and wil play. I wouldn't expect Westbrook to do all that much practicing the rest of the year.

Actually, the Eagles are remarkably healthy overall. They may well be the healthiest they've been all year. The only guy that won't play this weekend is Shawn Andrews, who hasn't played since week 2. This week Andy Reid said that they planned on leaving Andrews in California, where he had his surgery, for another week and then he should be able to get on a plane to come back. At that point, they'll evaluate where he is in his recovery.

That's good news, I was worried that injuries would ruin our chances

On a side note Jason…I’m gonna smuggle some biltong and droĆ«wors into the States for you, but how will I get it to you? I’m only in Philly from the 26th to the 28th of November, and I’ll be at the Cards game (big up 700, you’ll get some as well!). If you’re going to that game or if you’re gonna be in the area, we can work something out.

I don’t really mean ‘smuggle’, that was a bad joke, sorry.

I think Butler is out for Giants

also this is the best eagles secondary Ive ever seen. imagine if we could cover the TE? it would be like the 91 eagles all over again.
