Though he's now a Jaguar, Jason Babin still harbors significant hostility toward the Eagles, who surprisingly released him last month. Made available to the media Wednesday, Babin didn't hold his tongue. The defensive end touched on a variety topics, including his time in Philly and their "socialistic" organization. For the former, Babin intimated that he just never jived in the City of Brotherly Love. "They have a different approach and a different style than I do," Babin said, via Adam Caplan of The Sideline View. "It’s upsetting because they knew what they were getting when they hired me. I don’t know if they were going to try and change me. My stripes are kind of already the way they are, the way I practice, aggressive, loud, the way I play the game. I don’t know, I just guess they thought they could change the way I went about my business." In reference to his "socialistic" barb, Babin pointed to the firing of defensiv...

  • I agree with Babin. The Eagles use to be my favorite team. Now I back the Ravens - they are one of the best around.

First, let me say that the following is not an indictment of Foles in any way, it’s simply a logical look at possible alternatives.  I’m not saying the Eagles need to find someone else nor am I saying...

Eagles shut out of Pro Bowl...and some guys who may not be Eagles next year...

I thought guard Evan Mathis and kicker Alex Henery might have avoided the shutout... But no, not unless they get into the Pro Bowl as alternates. It's no big whoop as far as the actual NFC vs. AFC All-Star Game in Hawaii goes. I don't even watch the game. I just watch the pregame features, maybe catch an isolated series of plays if our guys are involved. But I can...

How do you like me now? Donovan McNabb says Eagles fans now know it isn’t easy making the playoffs

He was brushed off by Philly fans ready for a change, but since Donovan McNabb left, the Eagles haven’t been very good. Furthermore, McNabb’s legacy’s stock just rose a few points in the credibility department. Always looked upon as the quarterback who couldn’t, who blew chunks in the huddle of the Super Bowl. Now, the Eagles just blow chunks no where near the playoffs...

NFL Rumors: Jacksonville Jaguars Place Maurice Jones-Drew On Season Ending IR

In a move that took about two months longer than it should have, the Jacksonville Jaguars have finally placed running back Maurice Jones-Drew on season ending IR. Of course, the season was going to end in three more days for the Jaguars to begin with, so this move means very little. A season that began poorly ended even worse for Jones-Drew and the Jaguars. After a lengthy contract...
