Eagles' Jackson took one for the team Sunday - NFC East - ESPN
Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson had never taken a pain-killing injection before a game -- until Sunday. Without the injection, he probably wouldn't have been much of a factor against the Kansas City Chiefs. But after seeking advice from teammates, Jackson took the shot to help ease the pain in his injured groin.
Phil Sheridan: Eagles let it fly with the new-model Andy Reid | Philadelphia Inquirer | 09/29/2009
We can only wonder if the Andy Reid who coaches the Eagles now would have won a Super Bowl if he'd been around from 2000 through 2004.
Rewind: Celek's blocking a big piece of Eagles' win | Philadelphia Inquirer | 09/29/2009
It was not as sexy as his statistics or as thrilling as his 35-yard touchdown catch, but Brent Celek's blocking in the Eagles' 34-14 flogging of Kansas City on Sunday illustrates best how he has become a complete tight end.

This blogger thinks Al Wistert, who was inducted into the Eagles ring of honor yesterday, should also be in the hall of fame.

Eagles Should Start Using Two-Back Attack
When Brian Westbrook returns from his sprained ankle, Reid and offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg will again be faced with a familiar dilemma. Correll Buckhalter averaged 6.8 yards per touch last season as Westbrook’s seldom-used backup.
Les Bowen: Further Review: The bottom line: Who gives a flip how Jackson celebrates? | Philadelphia Daily News | 09/29/2009
I SAY, LET DeSean be DeSean. As long as the Eagles' second-year wideout doesn't hurt himself, incur a crucial penalty, or inadvertently eject the ball before crossing the goal line, I don't care if he performs the balcony scene from "Romeo and Juliet" in the end zone.

This picture of Brent looks gay.
That whole peering through the hoody with half your face covered thing is a little to Abercrombie and Fitchish for me. I thought Jeremy Bloom left, this picuture is a little queer for me. (not that I have hostility to the homosexual community). But the picture is just not manly.
But the dude can play, so who cares I guess.
Bleed green, or don't bleed at all!

I have to admit i was wrong about celic. he is a beast.
Im sorry but how stupid could jackson be. yeas he is a beast but he has a groin injury and he is diing into the endzone like that.
yeah I'm surprised Andy just laughed @ it
where the hell did that come from, on sportscenter & in the minds of all the eagles fans, they were saying “andy’s not gonna like that one” or something similar. hey, as long as he doesn’t injure himself desean can do any legal thing he wants, including great td celebrations, flag or no flag

ingram
im really interested to see how Celek plays this season. i see alot of positive things from him. but what happens when ingram (if hes physically able to) comes back next year? i know its early but lets assume celek plays lights out for the rest of the year
In 20 We Trust
They'll find a role for Ingram...
I don’t think they’ll use him like a traditional TE. They’ll try to split him out and get mismatches on corners that can’t match his size or linebackers that can’t stay with him. But he won’t take any snaps away from Celek.
Bye, Big Stew and JJ :(
to be honest
i think he drafted ingram….
1) to satisfy fans who wanted a TE
2) depth
3) his potential
i think we took him as late as we did because we didn’t need to spend an early pick on a TE, & at that pick he was the only good one left so the FO figured he’s our guy. his knee must be a tender issue if he was the 5th or 6th TE taken

Upside potential and a value pick that late.
Just a smart move for the organization…not just the fans
Smarter if he hadn’t gotten hurt again..but thats the risk for ya

Honestly, I like Ingram, but I say we scrap that plan and draft Gresham in the 2nd.
About 10 minutes ago, I was pondering my own existence. Then I decided that it didn't matter.
I think they’re going back to their bread and butter… heavy on the O and D lines this year… and I’m perfectly fine with that.
Bye, Big Stew and JJ :(

How long have pundits been predicting a two-back offense? It was supposed to happen with Staley-Westbrook, Westbrook-Buckhalter, Westbrook-Booker and now Westbrook-McCoy. Andy Reid does not run, and is not going to start running, a base two-back offense. The man only uses a FB one-third of the time and yet people still expect him to go split backs on a regular basis. This, like second marriages, represents the triumph of hope over experience.
