For the first time in what seems like an eternity, the Eagles are officially in a rebuilding mode instead of the “retooling” they were so insistent on doing in years past. One of the fundamental processes of rebuilding a roster is the need to trade old players to clear up not only cap space but also room for younger players …
EVERYBODY BREATH. Carson Wentz was traded, and the very same punditry that declared he was en route Chicago in exchange for Tarik Cohen, Nick Foles, and that giant reflective bean statue are now berating your Twitter timeline with more misinformation. Breath. As Eagles fans, we carry a civic duty — dare I say a divine right — to “angry react” …
With the head coaching search wrapped up as well as the rest of the staff mostly squared away, the next time the Eagles will make any kind of significant move will be March 17th, which marks the beginning of a new NFL year and the start of free agency. Unfortunately for the Eagles, Howie Roseman has concocted the second-worst financial …
Taking a Wide Receiver with the 6th pick would represent a fundamental misunderstanding of how football games are won and lost. Thanks to the late-game heroics of Nate Sudfeld, the Eagles enter the 2021 NFL Draft with the 6th overall pick. Since 1999 the Eagles have only been poised to draft a star this early four other times, nabbing Pro …
Monday could make the argument for the worst day of the week. After two days of releasing yourself from troubles, you find yourself with so much on your plate and not enough time to process it all; now, imagine if there were six Mondays in a seven day week. The days get longer, the time for rest and relief is …
Neither the First Round pick nor the perennial Pro Bowler can outdo what Jordan Mailata did on Sunday. Two years and three drafts ago the Philadelphia Eagles made an unprecedented move by trading up in the seventh round. At 233rd overall, the reigning Super Bowl Champions selected Jordan Mailata, an Australian Rugby player with literally zero football experience. If you …
Rejoice Eagles fans (and football fans for that matter) – the NFL season is upon us and the Birds are just days away from taking their first competitive snap since January. After a long offseason that included major uncertainty of whether the environment would be safe enough to play, the NFL has managed to implement protocols that have kept the …
Welcome to the best sports city in the world. The place where anyone who isn’t a part of the movement is declared an enemy and even those who declare themselves as neutral may feel the wrath; sorry Santa. A hard-nosed, blue-collar city that expects nothing but the best from anyone lucky enough to put on a uniform representing the City …
I wouldn’t say sports is the backbone of our country, it’s not. But, for many people, sporting events are a release from the outside pressure that bogs down our daily lives. It may seem silly to keep revisiting a season that ended on a down note but in the absence of any other sporting events that is exactly what I …
It is not typical of most jobs in the world to show everyone each of their employee’s salaries; however, the NFL is no typical workplace. The National Football League is no guarantee; there are many players in which most would classify as “overpaid” or “bargains” for their price. Today, we look at the former. With the 2020 season slowly approaching, …
