Could Nick Foles throw 45 touchdowns in 2014 and be the (Fantasy Football) MVP? - Jon Moore, Rotoviz
Unless the 2014 Philadelphia Eagles turn into a dumpster fire, it’s not unreasonable to expect Foles’ TD Rate to stay about the same as it was in 2013. Basically everyone on this list held steady or improved, with the two exceptions being guys who quarterbacked disastrous teams (or were the teams disastrous because the QBs were so bad?). Considering how things look in the NFC East, I’d have a hard time envisioning the Eagles going belly up, which means that maybe another year with an eight percent TD Rate is possible after all.
Chip Kelly certainly made game reviews and All-22 articles a lot of fun to read last year. He brought in some new ideas and did things that we hadn’t seen before. We learned a lot last year, but still have a lot more to take in.
Sproles calls perception he's a receiver 'crazy' - Geoff Mosher, CSN Philly
If he had his preference, Darren Sproles would universally be referred to as an "all-purpose player." He doesn’t mind versatile, multifaceted, multidimensional or any other label that describes the Swiss-army-knife options he brings to the running back position. But don’t offend the man. Don’t call him a receiver.
Why We Play - Eva Holland, SB Nation
I can still hear the quick crunch of his vertebrae cracking. That's the meddling of hindsight, of course — he was too far away, out in the middle of the night-dark field, and there were too many people around me and around him: the fans heckling, the grunts and dull thud of 16 men crashing together in the scrum, then an ominous silence. People breathing hard, whispering, yelling for help.
***PSA: The 2014 NBA Draft is tonight. It's a huge night for the Philadelphia 76ers so definitely go check out Liberty Ballers for some great draft coverage.***
