Trent Cole told me yesterday that he plans on doing some hunting on Sunday. Brandon Graham said he’s dreaming of getting two maybe three sacks when the Eagles take on the Packers on Sunday. That all sounds good fir the Birds pass rush must do all they can to get after Aaron Rodgers, but they’d [...]

Teams all over the NFL are shuffling rosters in order to get down to the 75-man limit. The Eagles are no different and they made some moves today that aren’t all that shocking.
They put Victor Abiamiri on reserve/PUP, which means that he won’t be available until Week 7 at the very least. It’s [...]

The Eagles failed to impress in their game against the Kansas City Chiefs last night. Sure, the Chiefs are awful and that makes it tough to accurately gauge how the different areas of the team performed, but, let’s try anyway.
What I liked…

The Eagles faced a bit of a test last night as their starters went the full first half and had to play against a nice Cincinnati Bengals team. The Bengals may have fizzled in the playoffs yet again last year, but they are back and will be a tough out this year. I [...]

I can understand why the Eagles rotate at the defensive tackle position and take starting tackles Mike Patterson and Brodrick Bunkley off the field on third down but I think both of these tackles are capable of being good pass rushers. I would like to see them shake up the rotations and have Patterson and [...]

Defensive tackle Trevor Laws came to training camp with full knowledge of what time it was. He had to either step up and prove he belonged in the NFL or run the risk of being given his walking papers by the team that drafted him in the second round.
Laws was ready after working relentlessly during [...]

Philadelphia Eagles DT Antonio Dixon, who emerged as the number three guy in the defensive tackle rotation last year, suffered a head injury on Monday at Lehigh. Right now, the extent of the injury is unknown.
Dixon came off the field and told one of his coaches, “I feel dizzy.” He then collapsed to [...]

First round draft pick Brandon Graham wanted to get into camp as soon as possible but he also wanted a good contract.  Last night he and the Eagles reached an agreement on a five-year deal, so he got what he wanted.
“It feels good, because I really wanted to get to training camp and Coach Reid [...]
