QB has been a disaster for the Philadelphia Eagles this year
Everyone in Philly was bragging about their QB depth before the season started. Backup QB Vince Young gave the Eagles the moniker of the “Dream Team”…..too bad he has done nothing to help the team this year. 31-year old Michael Vick has been banged up this year, but that isn’t an excuse for his disappointing performance this year. Vick has played in...

The Philadelphia Eagles should bench Desean Jackson
25-year old WR Desean Jackson has ******* about his contract all year long, which is fine. But, his utter lack of effort this year is unacceptable. He should be benched for conduct detrimental to the team. He has played in 11 games for the Eagles so far this year and he has caught 43 passes for 698 yards (16.2 avg) with 2 TD grabs. His alligator arms on passes over the middle...

Philadelphia Eagles (4-7) vs. Seattle Seahawks (4-7)
