2008-05-31 15:25:00 The Eagles 4th round pick out of UTEP signed a 4 year deal yesterday. Quintin Demps is the first Eagle to sign his contract, and he is ready to work. With Brian Dawkins turning 35 this year, it was no secret that they had to look for a FS to groom behind Dawk. Demps had more ...

The Eagles Pick Quintin Demps With The 117th Pick
2008-04-28 10:23:00 This was the extra pick the Eagles got for trading down with the Vikings, and they used it very wisely in my opinion. Quintin Demps is a free safety from UTEP who has a great understanding of the game. He is not the fastest guy, but he is very smart, and is able to cover his ...

Westbrook leads the NFL in total yards from scrimmage(1,896), and leads all RBs in yards per touch(5.6). Brian is having a career year reaching the end zone 12 times, and is now getting the league wide respect he deserves. Shawn Andrews made it ...
Dawkins A Special Player
2007-11-15 19:38:00 The Eagles needed Sunday's win over Washington desperately, and when a team is desperate, crazy things happen.Crazy things like a six-time Pro Bowl safety covering kickoffs.After Brian Westbrook's incredible 57-yard touchdown potentially saved Philadelphia's season, Brian Dawkins didn't want to see the kickoff coverage unit cough up the lead. That's why when they took the field to kick the ball back to the Redskins, Dawkins was with them - for, according to his memory - the first time in seven or eight years."That was just something that was a spur of the moment type thing; something that I wanted to do to help out," Dawkins said. "If I made the play, great; if I didn't, then hopefully I'd be out there to help the guys out and hopefully not allow a big play to happen."Dawkins said that after deciding he was going to cover the kick, there was no way he was staying on the sideline."I just felt like it was something I had to do and wanted to do. I didn't really ask to go in, I ...
Matt McCoy Cut
2007-10-30 00:48:00 The Eagles cut backup linebacker Matt McCoy today. The second round pick from San Diego State has largely been a huge bust. He was deactivated for almost his entire rookie season, and played poorly as a starter last season.The Eagles felt the need to replace him in the off season, by trading for Takeo Spikes. Spikes has played well, and McCoy had been designated to special teams. McCoy has a bonehead personal foul penalty for hitting the Minnesota punter in the back. The play took the Eagles out of Minnesota territory, and infuriated Brian Dawkins on the sidelines. Apparently this mistake was stupid enough for Andy Reid to kick him off the team.Akeem Jordan was signed off the practice squad to take McCoy's spot on the roster.This move means a few things to me. First I think that the Eagles are confident in the play of Takeo Spikes. He has a team option next year, and I believe the Eagles will pick that up.The other thing this does, is send a clear message to the rest of the team. N...
Vikings Preview
2007-10-27 11:34:00 Must Win?:This has been said a lot so far this year. This term gets thrown around a lot, but really a game is never a must win, unless it eliminates you from contention. If the Eagles want to be serious about possibly making the playoffs, then almost every remaining game is a must win. You figure they have to go 7-3 during the remaining ten to do so. Is this possible? Yes it really is. The Birds have to stop stalling in the red zone, and stop giving games away they should have won. Minnesota is a team that a good team should beat.Birds Improved Run D Gets Major Test:One positive of this Eagles season, is the improvements to the defensive front. A run defense that was considered the teams weakness, is now one of the teams strength. Brodrick Bunkley, Takeo Spikes, Omar Gaither, and Chris Gocong are all new starters. They are a huge reason for the run defense being much better. Trent Cole emerging as a premier DE, Jevon Kearse being healthy, and the improved play of Mike Patterson are ...
Birds D Collapses In Final Minute
2007-10-22 02:42:00 97 Friggin Yards:The Eagles defense has been excellent this year. So when Sav Rocca pinned the Bears deep with a minute 52 seconds left, you would think they could be able to hold the Bears inept offense one last time.Well if you saw this dreadful game, then you already know they didn't hold.The Bears had no timeouts, and started off the drive by throwing short underneath passes. 11 yards to Clark, 9 to Peterson, 9 to Hester, and 9 more to Clark.Then with the game on the line the Bears attack changed.On a 3rd and 3 with only 49 ticks to go, Brian Griese Throws a strike to Bernard Berrian in stride. Berrian gets all the way to the Eagles 39 for a gain of 25 yards. The Bears quickly ran down the field, and spiked the ball. The next play was another big one for the Bears. Greise passed to Devin Hester for 21 more yards. Bears ran up to the 15 yard line, and spiked the ball again.Then comes the dagger. Greise floated one up in the back of the end zone, and Muhsin Muhammad out jumped Se... |
