NFL football fans throughout the country are wondering whether the Eagles did the right thing in trading one of the NFL’s top quarterbacks, Donovan McNabb. and replacing him with Kevin Kolb, who is now a question mark.
How Kolb plays is the 900-pound gorilla in the living room. Despite all the fascination at the [...]
During this past off season I heard people comparing Eagles new starting quarterback Kevin Kolb to Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers. After six quarters of preseason action, I’ve heard his detractors comparing him to Bobby Hoying. It’s way too early to give the thumbs up or thumbs down on Kolb.
It’s too early to say he’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…
-Brandon Graham continues to look good. He is starting now and should [...]
This is a game which Kevin Kolb would just as soon forget, but he’d better not forget it because he’s need to learn from it. Losing DeSean Jackson after the first play of the game, changed the offense which limited what the Birds were able to do the rest of the way.
Kolb played poorly but [...]
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 [...]
While thinking about what awaits Andy Reid’s football team and his young quarterback Kevin Kolb, I thought about which quarterback currently playing in the NFL that I would like to see him emulate and the guy that jumps at me isn’t Peyton Manning, Brett Favre or Drew Brees, it’s Tom Brady.
I’m always surprised when I [...]
The Eagles coaches have been studying this young football team and seeing if they have one important quality. Do they have the ability to respond to adversity?
How does the offense play after a bad series? How the defense respond to a turnover by the offense? Does the defense step up after giving up a big [...]
Michael Vick’s roll out to his left this morning in the red zone drill, looked a lot like the play he scored on, in the game on Friday night. Vick has his legs back, but he still has a way to go in developing his quarterback skills in the west coast offense.
Yes, he did turn [...]
I think we got a good look at what lies ahead for Andy Reid, Kevin Kolb, DeSean Jackson and the Philadelphia Eagles this season. They’re explosive offensively but Kolb will be challenged to throw the football a great deal, yet stay away from turnovers.
He’s got to make good decisions and take care of the football. [...]
There were good plays by Kevin Kolb and the Eagles offense and there were bad plays by Kolb and the Eagles offense but all-in-all the Birds got off to a good start.
Kolb got the offense moving from his first snap and didn’t look back. He hit DeSean Jackson for a 21-yard gain on the first [...]
