Can Eagles miracle run continue into the playoffs?

Can Eagles miracle run continue into the playoffs?

(Photo Courtesy of Wikimedia Commons) It wasn’t long ago that I sat at my grandfather’s house watching the Eagles play the Saints. While I was watching the game, I remember thinking to myself that there is no way this team can make the playoffs. The defense looked disinterested and the injuries were just adding up.…MORE

Hard not to play “What If,” with the Eagles

Hard not to play “What If,” with the Eagles

(Photo Courtesy of Wikimedia Commons) I am a firm believer that you are who your record says you are. The Eagles are an 8-7 team because they have played like an 8-7 team this season. However, sometimes I can’t help but reflect on the season and think what could have been. If the Eagles stop…MORE

St. Nick delivers again

St. Nick delivers again

(Photo Courtesy of Wikimedia Commons) Yesterday had all the makings of a heartbreaking end to the season. The Texans seized control of the game until an 83-yard Foles touchdown to Nelson Agholor tilted the momentum back to the Eagles. The Eagles then expanded the lead to 29-16. In typical Eagles fashion, they blew that lead…MORE

Will the Foles magic continue?

Will the Foles magic continue?

Here we are, week 16 of the NFL season. The Eagles first 14 games of the season have breezed by and there hasn’t been a shortage of storylines to follow. Which honestly, is typical of an Eagles season. We now find ourselves in a similar situation as last year. The only difference is, the Eagles…MORE

Foles Needs to Start from Here on Out

Foles Needs to Start from Here on Out

(Photo Courtesy of Wikimedia Commons) I have been vocal about Nick Foles. I honest to god didn’t think  he could take the Eagles into LA and beat a Rams team that has never lost back to back games under Sean McVay. I was wrong, and that is a testament to how Nick and the rest…MORE

Eagles Shock the World in LA

Eagles Shock the World in LA

I didn’t think it could be done. I don’t think 95% of the country thought it could be done. But it was done. The Eagles did the unfathomable and went into LA to beat the Rams. A Rams team that was 11-2 and coming off a terrible loss at the hands of the Bears. There was…MORE

I hope the Nick Foles led Eagles lose on Sunday

I hope the Nick Foles led Eagles lose on Sunday

(Photo Courtesy of Wikimedia Commons) You read the headline correct. I’m as diehard an Eagles fan as the world has seen, and I want the Eagles to lose to the Rams on Sunday. I didn’t just wake up this morning with this random wish. I’ve been calculating the pros and cons of an Eagles victory…MORE

Eagles season all but ends after Dallas loss

Eagles season all but ends after Dallas loss

(Photo Courtesy of Wikimedia Commons) Like always, I need a day of reflection to think over the Eagles loss to the Cowboys. In a game of that magnitude, I can’t rush to my keyboard and write stuff based off emotion. Emotions were certainly running high after the Eagles 23-29 overtime loss to the Cowboys. The…MORE

Three Keys to Victory for the Eagles

Three Keys to Victory for the Eagles

Get out in front early I know it’s one of the most cliché things in sports. However, it is also one of the truest. The Cowboys are a much better team when they have the lead and can control the game with their running attack. The Eagles need to jump on them early and make…MORE

Sixers Are Back In The National Spotlight

Sixers Are Back In The National Spotlight

The NBA is a league of stars. If you don’t have any, you aren’t going to win. If you aren’t winning, chances are that you aren’t going to be featured much on national television. Throughout the dark days of the process, it would be very rare to ever find the Sixers on any nationally televised…MORE
