While Cullen Jenkins and Mike Patterson have done fine at rushing the passer, Derek Landri (189) has played too well against the run to ignore. 11 of his 13 plays have ended up in stops.

"You take it along, right with the team things," McCoy said. "You always try to win games. I never catch myself in a game worrying, like, ‘aw, man, I gotta get a couple yards, I gotta get this and that.’ … Maybe later, after the game, you think ‘how’d I do, statswise?’ … I’d be lying if I said it wouldn’t be something special to do, to kind of say that you led the league in rushing. That’s something big."

Culen Jenkins, Mike Patterson, Derek Landri and Antonio Dixon. Can’t wait to have those 4 guys back on the roster and healthy next year.

Margarito laughed, smiled and even taunted Cotto after suffering several big blows. His demeanor didn't help him at the end of the seventh round, when he sat on his corner stool, his right eye shut.
what happended to Dixon, all these signing i forgot about him

From Frank….
Miami, under highly regarded defensive coordinator Mike Nolan, has not allowed a rushing TD in its last seven games. Its last three opponents – the Bills, Cowboys and Raiders – have converted just four of 32 third downs.
Good. I hope that we throw the ball more.
Go Eagles!
If it was Sunday Nov 56, 2077, I'd be excited.

Reid wasn't told that he has to fire Castillo to keep his job...
Either he’s already toast and firing Castillo won’t matter, or, they just haven’t gotten around to it. Which is fine, makes little difference to tell him now.
Ed Snider is a crotchety old fuck.
That is all.
He's just being polite
He did the same thing with McDermott
What you guys think of this pick from WalterFootball?
Philadelphia Eagles: Morris Claiborne, CB, LSU
Back in August, I never would have imagined mocking a cornerback to the Eagles in the top 10 of the 2012 NFL Draft. It’s amazing how much can change in four months.
Asante Samuel won’t be back next year. He’s due $8.4 million and has made public comments against Andy Reid. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie will be entering his contract year, but he really, really sucks. The Eagles will need a new starter across from the disappointing Nnamdi Asomugha, unless they want to keep relying on DRC (Doesn’t Really Care).
At any rate, Morris Claiborne is the best player available not named Trent Richardson, so he definitely makes sense.
Pick change; previously Alshon Jeffery, WR

what are some good draft sites to read
I’m not a huge draftnik, but I do like to look at some mocks and read up on potential draftees. But I don’t really know any good sites to do this.
You have any good ones you can pass my way?
Hmm… CBS Draft Scout is pretty good, National Football Post with Wes Bunting is good, the senior bowl coverage from Scott Wright is good (draft countdown), draft breakdown does a real nice job, ProFootballWeekly has a pretty extensive prospect database and Russ Lande of sporting news is a former NFL scout and he has some interesting things to say (I don’t agree much, I think there is a reason he’s a former NFL scout).
You should really hit up twitter, there is some really good stuff on there if you can find it.

I like the players walterfootball has us taking in this weeks update and at least they continuously update their mocks, a lot of mocks still have vontaze burfict going in the top 12 and landry jones as the number 2 QB

Drc will be fine as a RCB. But he is god awful in the slot
Being an Eagles fan is like being friend-zoned by the girl you love

He will be fine until he fails to prevent completions on a regular basis, then we won’t be so fine. He’ll be the pussy fucking waste of a roster spot that he was meant to be.
This is not the type of player to bring us a championship.

DRC is as useful
as Stephen Hawking playing for Manchester United
I have to disagree with you guys
In Arizona, DRC was a trash talking, vocal player. He made the pro bowl and is considered one of the top 10 cornerbacks in the league .
THE PROBLEM is he isn’t being used properly, like everyone else on this defense. Right now, his ego is whats hindering his play, aside from the fact that he just sucks in the slot. DRC HATES the slot, and feels disrespected that he is being asked to play there and so he’s half ass’ing it. We are fans watching the game. This is a guy who has made the pro bowl, is at the end his rookie contract and is looking for a big payday. But what does philly do? We stick him in a position that he’s not only uncomfortable with, but gets a lot less glamore than the spotlight he likes and was hoping for in a contract year. Its like asking Nnamdi to come to philly to play special teams. Wouldnt u be pissed too?
DRC, Desean, Asante are all dealing with the same ego issue. DRC wants spotlight and big money. Desean sat back and watched outsider after outsider come in for big paydays (Steve Smith makes 4 million this year compared to Desean’s $600,000), and Asante Samuel, a man who you are asking to be the leader of a defense, got his ego crushed when Philly tried to shop him twice in one season. I fully expected this type of season. We pulled a classic Jerry Jones move and disregarded ego’s and chemistry and thought we could make it work.
Agreed
I don’t think we’ve really seen what DRC can do here.
Its all about the []_[]

Is it me (which it could be, cause of all the blowcane)
…but does Dion Lewis look slow as shit when he returns kickoffs?

Via Les Bowen
Their 29 turnovers are the most in the league, and eight of the turnovers have ended red-zone drives. (Because this is a bizarre team having a bizarre season, it is only fitting that the Eagles have a better record [3-5] in games in which they suffer a red-zone turnover than in games in which they do not [1-3]. Go ahead. You explain that.)
Bewildering…
Shady is the man.
