EAGLES RUMORS & GOSSIP

Try to find a good thing to say about the New York Giants. You can’t.The coaching was bad. The running game was nonexistent. Eli Manning was atrocious. The receivers — hailed by some as the league’s best before the season — were sloppy, at best. The offensive line was a human blocking sled, or worse. The defense wasn’t good enough. The special teams unit gave up a punt...

The Eagles are hoping for Carson Wentz to take a leap toward stardom this year, and while looking improved from last year, I do not know if he has really made the leap yet. Don’t get me wrong, the only young quarterback I would put above Wentz to build a team around would be Derek Carr. Wentz has shown flashes of greatness but has also shown some frustrating growing pains. Outside...

The Philadelphia Eagles faired better against the upper-tier Chiefs than many presumed they would. Carson Wentz extended drives, the pass rush got to a notoriously elusive Alex Smith four times, and the new receiving corps seems to have settled in after just two games. Many mistakes were correctable, whether they be drops from receivers or another costly throw turning into a turnover...

When ya gotta go, ya gotta go, so we can’t blame Eagles cornerback Dexter McDougle for what he did during Sunday’s game against the Chiefs. McDougle, at one point in the second quarter, was caught by FOX’s cameras urinating on the sideline. Gotta love the Eagles trainers who were holding the towels up to help protect others from seeing what McDougle was doing. They had a great...

LeGarrette Blount was essentially a non-factor in the Philadelphia Eagles’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, but he doesn’t care if that ruined your chance at winning your fantasy football matchup.After he recorded zero carries and caught just one pass for no yards, Blount got tired of seeing fantasy football owners complain about his performance, so he fired back on...

Travis Kelce appeared to break out his troll game while celebrating a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Kelce scored a 15-yard touchdown on a shovel pass in the fourth quarter to break a 13-all tie and give Kansas City the lead. In his celebration, the Chiefs tight end flapped his arms like he was mocking the Eagles flapping their wings: It’s not hard to think...

If you have Carson Wentz or Zach Ertz in your fantasy lineup and barely win your Week 2 matchup, you can thank this truly bizarre play.With the first half of their game against the Kansas City Chiefs winding down, the Philadelphia Eagles were pushing for a tying field goal. Wentz threw a ball that should have been intercepted or at least knocked down by Terrance Mitchell. Instead...

Now I completely understand that a week two game in the NFL season hardly qualifies as a must win ever. Year in and year out, teams are still finding their stride in week two and they are still trying to find chemistry in order to make a playoff push. This year, however, it is a little different for the Philadelphia Eagles. A young team that is on the rise, needs to show the rest...

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz admits he was flattered by Cara Mund, a fellow Bismark, N.D. native, giving him a shout-out after she was crowned Miss America last weekend.“That was cool,” Wentz said of the mention from Mund, via ESPN. “Obviously we’re very similar in age (Mund is 23 and Wentz is 24). But the idea of playing this game and having this platform...

It wouldn’t be an NFL season without some drama surrounding Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz. Considered a brilliant defensive mind, Schwartz himself is also seen as a highly enigmatic figure.So it shouldn’t be a surprise that on the eve of Philadelphia’s Week 1 game against the Washington Redskins, one report surfaced that Schwartz is attempting to unseat...

Things got a bit chippy in the stands at FedEx Field during Sunday’s Eagles-Redskins game.The Eagles jumped out to a 7-0 lead and never gave it up in the NFC East matchup, so fans had something to gloat about. And sure enough, they did.One particular Eagles fan tried to rub it in a Redskins fan’s face during the game, and that caused a fight to break out in the stands. It didn’t...

Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz opened the first Sunday of the 2017 NFL season in a huge way.Wentz, who is not known for his escapability, looked like Russell Wilson and made the Redskins look silly in the first quarter of Sunday’s game.The Eagles quarterback scrambled to avoid the pressure, and then found Nelson Agholor downfield for a 58-yard touchdown. What a play.

Jeffrey Lurie became the latest NFL owner to dispute the belief that Colin Kaepernick remains without a job because the quarterback has been blackballed. “The definition of blacklist is some discussion amongst people to not hire or not approve or something like that. I’ve never had a discussion with anybody [about Kaepernick],” the Philadelphia Eagles owner told the media Thursday...

A Philadelphia Eagles fan took a brutal shot at his favorite NFL team with a dying wish, according to his obituary. Jeffrey Clayton Riegel passed away at the age of 56 on Aug. 18, per his obituary published in the Press of Atlantic City. The pertinent passage where Riegel absolutely destroys the Eagles is as follows: He was beloved by all. God gave Jeffrey the miracle of time to...
