$5000.00 Fine for Kolb Necessary?

Marc Fanelle — Sat, 23 Oct 2010 00:30:37 +0000

The Nonsensical Fines League strikes again!!!! In a league which once fined Micheal Vick, then playing with the Falcons, $15,000 for socks that weren’t right because his out side socks fell down. The fact of the matter was Vick had two pairs of socks on the team socks and one’s underneath for his own comfort. The team socks fell down or were slouched by Vick himself, neither of which is important. He was fined because his socks weren’t pulled… Finish Reading

Who are the Eagles Really????

Marc Fanelle — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 03:24:16 +0000

The Philadelphia Eagles are a marvel in this short start of the NFL season. With a 4 and 2 record, they seem to be in control of the season. There are other questions that arise though. Is it all smoke and mirrors? Is the NFC really a true litmus test? Is the Eagles defense and special teams just young and need time to gel? I remember when Jim Johnson first got here with Andy Reid, Troy Vincent being interviewed and… Finish Reading

What should we expect from Michael Vick?

This has been a question asked by Eagles fans since Michael Vick was first acquired by the team last preseason. The question has had different values of significance placed during that time. Last year, fans wondered if Vick would, or should even see the field at all. With Donovan McNabb set as the starter and Kevin Kolb as the backup, fans didn’t have to expect much from Vick.

Now with McNabb in Washington… Finish Reading

The Eagles did a few things right and a few more things wrong in a 27-20 loss that leaves the team still searching for answers at several key positions.

Are the Eagles suddenly booring?

Eric Schwartz — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 20:07:26 +0000

Many Eagles fans have been excited about the ongoing training camp do to the fact that the team that will take the field on Sundays starting in September will be vastly different than the ones that have proceeded it for the better part of a decade. We don’t know if it will be better, but right now the word “different” also stands for “hope.”

Then there are those who are not so excited about training camp. Without McNabb shooting off… Finish Reading

Eagles give Kevin Kolb extension

Eric Schwartz — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 23:03:24 +0000

Not that there was any question that Kevin Kolb was the Eagles leading man after the team traded Donovan McNabb to Washington earlier this month, but Philadelphia reinforced the point today signing Kolb to a one-year contract extension.

The deal gives Kolb a guaranteed contract of $12.26 million over the next two years.

This was a move expected by many. When the team trades away a player like McNabb it has throw some dollars to the new QB and that’s… Finish Reading
