Eagles DE: Castillo didn't change

Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham indicated that the team firing coach Juan Castillo was a necessary move based on some of his in-game coaching strategies.

Should Michael Vick fake an injury to help Eagles, Andy Reid?

Without a doubt the Philadelphia Eagles are the most desperate 3-3 team the NFL has seen in recent memory.  From QB turnovers to coaching turmoil, this Eagles team seems to be one bad outing away from a serious shakeup that could include the firing of head coach Andy Reid and or benching of quarterback Michael Vick.  It’s a volatile situation that has clearly fallen on the...

Michael Vick Not Concerned About Getting Benched

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick never lacks for confidence. When you’ve seen what he’s been through, resolve and confidence are at the top of the character trait. The Eagles as a team are already on notice. For a brief description, they don’t get it done and everyone from the head coach on down could be done. Vick himself is also on notice, because if his coach...

Eagles Not Good Enough to Walk the Talk

Andy Reid and Michael Vick need to produce With the Eagles having their bye week last Sunday and sitting with record of 3-3, we weren’t subjected to another 4th quarter collapse or any post-game news conferences having to explain what went wrong.  We tune in hoping to hear the participants confirm what we just witnessed on the field. The problem with that is, when listening to...

Brandon Graham says Juan Castillo became predictable

Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham told the media that former defensive coordinator Juan Castillo became too predictable with his play-calling, which didn’t help them hold on to leads in … Continue reading »

2012 NFL Week 8 Picks

This week is going to be, to put it mildly, interesting. The Eagles are coming off a bye week in which Andy Reid replaced his DC and there are widespread rumors of problems in the entire front office. The Falcons, also coming off a bye, are the only remaining undefeated team. Andy Reid has never lost the game the week after the bye, including the infamously disastrous 2005 season...

Hey Brandon “Mitchell”, check your stats before dismissing former coach

Brandon Graham better buck up or shut up. He threw former Eagles coordinator Juan Castillo under the bus, which I commend him for, but he seems more like Freddy Mitchell than Terrell Owens when he said what he said. “I think we started running the same stuff over and over and not switching it up as much,” Graham told CSNPhilly.com. “A lot of time we ran the same coverage, stuff...

Brandon Graham issues harsh critique of Juan Castillo, shows confidence in Todd Bowles

Linebacker Casey Matthews hinted at what he thought of Juan Castillo’s coaching when he summed up the first meeting of the Philadelphia Eagle defense in the Todd Bowles era on Monday: “We’re not going to be predictable anymore.” Brandon Graham took those comments further on Wednesday by blaming Castillo for the Eagles defensive woes in the games of which he presided. Graham...

Troubleshooting the Eagles' O-Line...

The problem with Howard Mudd's complex zone-blocking scheme on the offensive line is that it is not a "plug-and-play" deal... If a guy goes down, it's not necessarily a matter of "next man up" and rolling another guy through... And it doesn't help that backup center Dallas Reynolds is getting blown off the LOS in certain down-and-distance formations...

Expectations for the Philadelphia Eagles Final 10 Games

The Philadelphia Eagles have become the most difficult team to predict in the NFL. They have the talent to beat anyone, but they also have the ability to lose to just about anyone. Whether it’s coaching blunders, turnovers or just finding new ways to lose, this team has a way of blowing games they should win. Only one of their six games this season have been decided by more than...

Huge Test for Todd Bowles and Eagles Defense

Todd Bowles takes over defense New Eagles defensive coordinator, Todd Bowles, takes over the play-calling for a unit that is searching for an identity. A defense that has given away two consecutive 4th quarter leads, has no leader and after the firing of Bowles’ predecessor, Juan Castillo, explained the results as a lack of imagination from Castillo. A couple of ‘back-up’ players...

Philadelphia Eagles: Week 8 NFL Power Rankings (#11)

Last week: 14 (+3) Record: 3-3 On bye.

As a Falcons and Eagles Fan Week 8 BLOWS

Every time we get to the point in the season where the Atlanta Falcons and Philadelphia Eagles have to face each other I face a week of anxiety! I’ve mentioned this many times before — I’m a fan of both teams. And the past two weeks have been very nauseating since both teams had a bye the same week AND they’re playing each other right after it. As much as people criticize...

Eagles Sign C Matt Tennant, Release Steve Vallos

The Philadelphia Eagles signed center Matt Tennant and released center Steve Vallos on Tuesday. Tennant, 25, was a fifth-round draft selection of New Orleans in 2010 and played 28 games with the Saints over two seasons. Tennant was released by New Orleans as part of final cuts on September 1, but was claimed by the New England Patriots, who subsequently released him on October...
