Eagles Week 11 Report — Thursday

Philadelphia_eagles_2007_04ec
Like we stated yesterday, the chances of Sheldon Brown playing were better than the report from Domowitch.  Brown practiced today, albeit on a limited basis. Not so encouraging signs from Akeem Jordan, who is still unable to practice.  He isn’t giving up on playing this week...

Eagles Week 11 Report — Wednesday

Philadelphia_eagles_v_6bea
Sheldon Brown gave reporters the indication that he’ll be ready to play on Sunday, despite not practicing today.  His hamstring strain appears to be minor. Jason Peters returned to practice today, though Andy Reid said he’s not completely healthy (is any player at this...

Eagles Week 11 Report — Monday

Picture_1
Another disappointing but not surprising loss.  The Eagles are banged up pretty badly and they were playing a good team on the other side of the country.  Despite the lack of discipline and consistency from all units, the team is still in position to win the NFC East. Injuries &...

NFL VP Admits Error from Sunday Night

A very surprising moment from NFL V.P. of officiating Mike Pereira, he admitted on his weekly NFL Network show that the ball could have and should have been moved upon review of the fourth and one play Sunday night. This, not surprisingly, hasn’t made us feel any better about the game.

Interesting (In a Bad Way) Day at the NovaCare Complex

The Eagles have lost their kick returner and fourth cornerback (Ellis Hobbs) for the season.  Apparently, Joselio Hanson is also going to miss about a month with an undisclosed issue. The Eagles have signed a cornerback (Ramzee Robinson).  And Jack Ikegwuonu will get a shot —...

DeSean Jackson Has a New Agent: Satan

Yep, he dropped his current representation and signed with Rosenhaus. In fairness, he was being represented by DeBartelo Sports (remember, he’s a Bay Area kid), and the DeBartolo’s aren’t exactly known for their ethics, either. Here’s hoping he keeps that head on straight.

Eagles To Sign Cornerback?

Per Scout.com’s Adam Caplan, the Eagles appear to be on the verge of signing a new cornerback.  They have been working out several free agents, apparently worried that Dmitri Patterson will be unable to stay healthy and/or perform with some lingering injury issues. The team...

Eagles Week 10 Report — Monday

As we suspected last week, Brian Westbrook did not end up playing last night.  As was discussed in length by Collinsworth and Michaels, Westbrook is the sort of person who isn’t going to rush back and put his mental health in danger. If you hear anything about headaches during...

Eagles Week 9 Report — Friday

Philadelphia_eagles_v_099d
Some important guys returned to practice today, while others remain our or limited. Broderick Bunkley and Victor Abiamiri practiced today and look ready to go for Sunday. Brian Westbrook was limited in practice today.  No word on why, but we doubt it would simply be to keep him fresh...

Eagles Week 9 Report — Tuesday

It looks like Brian Westbrook will be practicing tomorrow — at least in some limited capacity.  It remains an open question whether or not the player and the medical staff will feel comfortable enough with his recovery to let him take some shots on Sunday night. Kevin Curtis...

Eagles Week 8 Report — Friday

Gettyimageproxy
Brian Westbrook will have another concussion test today.  He must pass (whatever that means) to resume exercising.  He did not practice with the team today, of course. DeSean Jackson did return to practice and will be playing on Sunday.  Macho Harris, though, did not practice and...

Eagles Week 8 Report — Wednesday

All you need to know about what the Eagles really expect of Brian Westbrook on Sunday — they just announced that they nabbed RB P.J. Hill off the Saints practice squad. Omar Gaither has been put on IR.  He is officially out for the season. Kevin Curtis and Victor Abiamiri have...

Westbrook Status

As we said yesterday, there is good reason to be skeptical of Andy Reid’s public optimism (he’s “counting on” Westbrook for Sunday) with regards to the star running back’s status for this weekend’s big game. Westbrook suffered enough trauma to his...

Eagles Week 8 Report — Tuesday

The DeSean Jackson injury wasn’t serious enough to even keep him out for the rest of the game last night.  Reid declared it a foot sprain in the post-game. Brian Westbrook has a concussion.  How he progresses over the next few days will determine his availability for Sunday...

Eagles Week 7 Report — Saturday

Max Jean-Gilles missed practice today with a shoulder issue and is questionable for Monday night.  He has been a part of a not-so-effective guard rotation that we would welcome coming to an end.  Getting Todd Herremans back this week is a good start. Kevin Curtis has had arthroscopic...

Gaither to Have Surgery — Likely Out for Season

Carolina_panthers_v_b109
Andy Reid announced today that Omar Gaither will need surgery for a Lisfranc injury suffered last week.  He will likely be lost for the season.  The acquisition of Will Witherspoon was indeed a desperate move.  The Eagles were fortunate that Gaither’s injury happened just...

Eagles Make Deadline Deal

They’ve acquired linebacker Will Witherspoon from the Rams for Brandon Gibson and a 2010 draft pick.  More details to come. Witherspoon had been playing the weakside linebacker position for the Rams, but has also played the middle.

Monday Morning — Latest on the Injuries (Positive News?)

Carolina_panthers_v_6615
Victor Abiamiri said after the game that he thinks he’ll be able to play next week.  It has been called a knee sprain.  But everything is pending the MRI today. Jason Peters said the following after the game:  “I was blocking my guy, and I just got rolled up on,”...

Peters — X-Rays Negative

That’s the word from the Eagles’ Chris McPherson.

Eagles Week 6 Report — Wednesday

Philadelphia_eagles_2009_9528
Some great news if you’re concerned about the running game — Todd Herremans was out on the field today.  He was not involved in contact drills however, and it seems unlikely he’ll play this week.  Still, it’s progress. Kevin Curtis was also back to practice...

Herremans

Philadelphia_eagles_2009_9528
The Eagles run game has been rather inconsistent all year, and is one of the areas of concern for the team at this point.  One positive development could be the return of Todd Herremans, who has stated previously that he’d like to return for the Raiders game. As discussed previously...
