Eagles star Running Back Brian Westbrook has been voted to the NFL's All-Pro team.
This is the first time Brian has achieved this recognition in his career. Statistically, Brian had the best season of any Eagles RB ever. He broke Wilbert Montgomery's franchise record for yards from scrimmage in a season, and Irving Fr....

I'm excited that I get to post my first blog on Yardbarker. The season is now at a close for most teams and we are coming off our first playoff win in 13 years. It seems as if everyone in the world is more excited about our win than us. Maybe it's because we know that winning 1 playoff game is not the goal...the goal is to be that team standing in Feb. That is the only...
One reason we have won seven games in a row is that our defense has
really come together. We got off to a rough start when we were trying
to figure each other out. When you get a new coaching staff it takes
a little time to get acquainted. Coach Cottrell has done a great job
bringing us together. He coaches with emotion and feels games are
always going to...
I'm glad we didn't have a bye week heading into the playoffs. I
really do think it hurts more than it helps. When you have momentum
and you're winning games like we have been it's much better to keep
playing than have a week off. When you get that down time guys seem
to get a little too comfortable and it really knocks you off rhythm.

Brian Westbrook's career has been a battle against unfounded anonymity.
"On his own team he has often been overshadowed by the likes of Donovan McNabb and Brian Dawkins. Around the league he has been kept out of the spotlight by players like LaDanian Tomlinson and Larry Johnson.
Even after he put together an outstanding season in 2006, few people outside of Philadelphia...

The way I hear it, Donovan McNabb is finished in Philadelphia. Evidently he is 100 percent responsible for the Iggles finishing 8-8 and out of the post-season. I think he's ready to step up to general manager for the Washington Redskins.
