But how much is Andy Reid playing with fire?
Sunday’s afternoon practice was as intense and physical as we have seen in some time – a three-hour slugfest that exhausted the players. Reid, known for maybe the toughest training camps in the league, is delivering on his promise to turn this puppy up a notch from last season.
