Ravens Bounce Eagles, McNabb: Quick Thoughts

Three Philadelphia Eagles fans, season ticket holders past and present. We get together each week and talk about our favorite football team in typical midnight green and silver style. Each has our own perspective on being a fan. Eric and Chuck live in South Jersey and have season tickets together, and Todd now lives in L.A. We talk about the normal ups and downs, being a fan wherever...

From: Pro Football Weekly How big a Pro Bowl longshot was FB Le?Ron McClain entering this season? Well, let?s put it this way: Lorenzo Neal, who joined the Ravens only in August, was probably a better bet, on name recognition alone, to make it to Hawaii than McClain. After all, Neal had been to four Pro [...]

WOTS is that yesterday's post on potential defensive coordinators is for naught and we are most likely looking at an internal hire: Jay Hopson, the linebackers coach and former Southern Miss defensive coordinator. When it looked like Hopson was destined for the DC job last year I scoured Sunday Morning Quarterback for any information the internet's most prominent Southern...

Marquette-Tennessee Mini-Preview As I mentioned Sunday, I am about to head up a possibly icy I-40 to Nashville (from Memphis) to watch the SEC-Big East Invitational, which of course includes the Vols, off the rather embarrassing loss at Temple Saturday, and Baldy’s Commodores (unfortunately, I’ll be there someday as well). If you thought Temple was good, there’s [...]

Now I'm the first one to criticize my favorite players. Marvin Harrison: whats up man, either retire or gain back fire. Reggie Brown, just leave. Jim Johnson, start Lito. But man oh man, you guys have got to see what we've been up to defensively: 5 ft 10 206 lbs, the best pound for pound strong safety in the NFL (ida said Palamalu, but hes gaining pounds lol). HE IS AN ABSOLUTE...

A little late on the Leave [insert name] Alone! meme, this young fellow does his best Chris Crocker impression.[h/t Phillyist]

From: Philadelphia Inquirer Donovan McNabb strongly denied statements by the Monday Night Football crew that his relationship with coach Andy Reid was fractured even though the Eagles were playing their best football of the season. McNabb indicated last week that he planned to talk to Reid and the front office about his situation during the off-season. [...]

The Pro Bowl rosters were announced today and five Ravens have made the cut. Le’Ron McClain, Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Brendan Ayanbadejo and Terrell Suggs. For McClain it’s his first selection in only his second season and even though he has played fullback he has also alternated quite effectively to halfback and feature back status for [...]

McNabb was benched during the Ravens game. It's a thing of the past. Yet we are still talking about the benching!Get over it Donovan. And will the media stop asking the man about the benching...please! Was the benching fair or deserved? The truth is it's all a matter of opinion. McNabb's ...

Enough said...the cowboys will crumble like they always do.

WRs Hank Baskett and Kevin Curtis, FS Brian Dawkins and O-Linemen Shawn Andrews, Todd Herremans and Jon Runyan are all missing practice on Wednesday...

Baltimore Ravens WR Derrick Mason was a limited participant at practice on Thursday because of his shoulder injury. Also practicing on a limited...

Eagles WR Kevin Curtis (calf) missed practice Thursday, the Eagles? official site reports. With two days of missed practice this week, Curtis may...

Quarterback: B+ Flacco had his best statistical game of the season. He threw for 280 yards, a pair of touchdowns, and had several successful rush attempts as well. But even so, Joltin? Joe left something to be desired. While the heavy pass rush was hardly his fault, Flacco was not at his in terms of decision-making. [...]

AP Recap: Steelermaniacs recap by guitarplayercrazy: William Gay and Lawrence Timmons lead Steelers to victory in Baltimore. Timmons and Gay have flourished in limited playing time. And in the biggest game of the season the two second year players made critical plays for The Defense to help keep the Ravens off the scoreboard in [...]
