I was guest on Eagles Fancast this week to talk about the Eagles season so far and the prospects going forward.
Return of key players should help Eagles' defense | Philadelphia Daily News | 10/26/2011
This week, Washburn can regularly rotate Trent Cole and Darryl Tapp at right end and Jason Babin and Juqua Parker at left end. Throw in a handful of snaps for Brandon Graham once he's activated and none of them would need to play more than 35 snaps a game, which would pay big dividends in December and January.
How Michael Vick makes his line look bad - NFC East Blog - ESPN
The Philadelphia Eagles do not have a great offensive line. It’s young and rebuilding. But even if the Eagles had the 1995 Dallas Cowboys’ line (Pro Bowlers Nate Newton, Mark Tuinei, Larry Allen, Ray Donaldson; two-time All-Pro Erik Williams), armchair analysts would still be carping about quarterback Michael Vick needing better protection.

Nnamdi Asomugha's black-rimmed glasses were square, and the gold-and-maroon scarf didn't quite make it all the way around his neck, but that didn't matter to the young patients at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. The cornerback, as Harry Potter, joined linebacker Akeem Jordan and punter Chas Henry on Tuesday for the Eagles' Trick or Treat community event at CHOP. Jordan was dressed in a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle costume and Henry was a caveman.
Owens opens up about rocky tenure with Eagles
Terrell Owens spoke about his time with the Eagles on NFL Network after his open workout Tuesday.
Talkin' About Juan
You can see some progress with the defense, but we still don’t know what to make of the unit. The last 6 quarters have been very good, but we don’t know if that was a fluke or truly the sign that things have changed. Sunday night’s game against Dallas will be a good test.
Will Forte, Jackson cash in? | National Football Post
Two game-changing players – Matt Forte and DeSean Jackson – have a lot in common, perhaps more than they'd like. Both Forte and Jackson were drafted in the second round of the 2008 NFL draft, a mere five picks apart (#44 and #49, respectively). And each is earning $600,000 this season, playing out the final year of their rookie deal.
Fact or myth: Miles Austin repeatedly torched Nnamdi Asomugha in 2009 on Thanksgiving when the Cowboys played the Raiders – Blogging the bEast
As we roll into Eagles-Cowboys week, I’ve been reminded yet again by my Cowboys friends of Austin’s big day against Oakland two years ago, except, I didn’t really remember it that way, and figured I’d take a look

NFL punting is so easy, a caveman can do it.
I would like to thank my hands for being so great, for allowing me to type this post.

I don’t understand how any self-respecting human being could work for either Gieco or Progressive with all their stupid commercials. As someone about to go into insurance, I wouldn’t even work for them if they offered me 70k/year to start in a management position.
The Jruth shall be told.
Compared to what I make, I would take it in a heart beat.

pshhh I’m about to start out at like 45. Wouldn’t sell my sole to work for those gimmicky-ass companies. Fuck that.
The Jruth shall be told.
I also just found out my wife is prego! It was planned, but could still use the bump in pay, ya know?

Oh, I know.
I went back to work because my wife’s pregnant.
Now it’s school during the day, work overnight.

Thanks Pack. Its our first. We were practically told by my wifes doctor that she wasnt going to be able to, and he started suggesting fertility pills and stuff. So we tried the natural way first and BAM! First try! So, we are really excited!

Matt Forte deserves to be payed in the top 20% of this league (maybe even top 15%). The guy is LITERALLY the Bears offense, especially since Mike Martz is clueless and has no idea what the hell he is doing. If I remember correctly, he is leading the NFL in yards from scrimmage with ~1000.

Nnamdi, Asante, DRC; The Three Graces...charm, beauty, and creativity.

agreed
Forte is the only consistent performer for the Bears. He can run and catch out of the backfield and is decent at blocking too. He saves their offense so many times on swing and screen passes it’s crazy.
He deserves a big contract, but I’m afraid with all of his touches that is going to go against him.
I honestly didn’t even know that NA was dressed up in that picture. Figured that was just his regular style.
The Jruth shall be told.
he has the lightning bolt on his forehead.

I'd hate to admit it...
…but that Vick article is dead on. I just hope he learns enough about reads now so he’s actually worth something when his legs slow down…what with the 80 million dollar deal and all.
I’ve seen it too, at times Vick looks lost. He doesn’t seem to see the disguised coverage. He has never been that great on 3 step drop rythm throws like Brady and Payton do, where the throw comes before or at same time receiver ends his route. Mcnabb was pretty good at the rhythm throws when he was here.
Normally a west coast offense is all curls, slants and crossing routes which all involve great timing. Vick might be better suited with a Denver style play action. Here is to hoping Vick can improve his timing throws.
