Coaching changes are rarely boring when it comes to the Eagles. Back in 1991, the whole world knew that Jeff Fisher should be the man to replace Buddy Ryan. The problem was that owner Norman...

One of the biggest disappointments for the 2012 Eagles is the poor play of the offensive line. The line took some time to come together in 2011 as they adjusted to Howard Mudd's system and all the...

Andy Reid has been a very good coach for the Eagles. He's won a lot of games. He got the team to the Super Bowl and came close a number of other years. He's got a lot to be proud of and he's ...

Back in October the Eagles pass defense was actually good. The Eagles were first or second in opposing quarterback rating and opposing completion percentage. That seems decades ago, as the...

The Eagles went to the NFC Championship in 2008 and came painfully close to going to the Super Bowl. That was Jim Johnson's last game ever. He died in July of 2009. Since his death, the Eagles...

One of my favorite movies is The Producers. It is the story of a man who scams little old ladies into backing a play designed to fail so that he can keep all the money. There is a scene in the...

The Eagles sit at 3-5. Pessimists see the team ready to fall apart. Optimists think the team has already hit rock bottom and could be ready to go on a win streak. Whether the team finishes 3-13,...

The Eagles sit at 3-4. Who's to blame? Andy Reid? Michael Vick? Bobby April? The offensive line? The defense? There is no way a team this good should be so mediocre. Someone must be at fault. One...

I have been a Penn State football fan for more than 30 years. I've seen national titles. I've seen overachieving teams that made me incredibly proud. I've seen underachieving teams that made me...

It was reported on Thursday that Andy Reid will keep Michael Vick as the starting quarterback. Reid will also continue to have offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg call the plays. I think this is...

Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie made it abundantly clear this offseason that Andy Reid needed to deliver a good season. Lurie didn't lay out specific goals, but let everyone know that 8-8 wasn't good...

The Eagles have a heralded STs coach in Bobby April. They added speedy returners in the offseason. They hoped the coverage units would be improved with experience. Hasn't happened. The Eagles are struggling on STs. Why? What can be done?

This is Year 2 for Juan Castillo as Eagles defensive coordinator. His first season was wildly up and down. Let's take a look to see if things have improved so far this year and to get a better feel for the overall situation.

Michael Vick has led the Eagles to a 2-0 record, but has also thrown 6 interceptions. Let's take a look at how he's played so far and what to expect moving forward.

The Eagles have the #1 defense in the NFL right now. That's surprising after a messy 2011 season for Juan Castillo's unit. Is it too soon to start believing this defense is the real deal?

Run defense was a major problem in 2011. The Eagles worked to fix it during the offseason. How does the situation look heading into 2012? Can the Eagles stop the run?

The Eagles roster is largely set. They may make a move or two, but for now you are looking at a roster with a lot of young guys, both as starters and key backups. Interesting design for a team with Super Bowl aspirations.

Training camp is now over, but that doesn't mean that the roster or starting lineup is set. Let's take a look at which positions are still up in the air.

Michael Vick, LeSean McCoy, and DeSean Jackson were quiet in the preseason opener, but several young players had a big night and really helped themselves. Which players stood out the most?

The starting offensive line for the Eagles could be outstanding in 2012. Four starters return and Demetress Bell is a talented replacement for Jason Peters. The concern is depth. Who will step up when starters go down?

The Eagles were 8-8 last year. They spent the offseason making deals and moves to improve the team. Did they make the right ones? Are there any concerns left as the team heads off to Lehigh?

The Eagles look to be a potential Super Bowl contender. One potential area of weakness is backup QB. The Browns might be shopping their starter, Colt McCoy. If that happens, should the Eagles make an offer for him or should they stick with Kafka?

The Eagles have had great pass rushers over the last 25 years. How do the various players rank against each other?
