Here are 10 things to know about how the Eagles’ offense matches up with the Falcons’ defense. If you missed the first cheat sheet, click here.
It will probably come as a surprise to Philadelphia Eagles fans to hear that quarterback Michael Vick is overrated. After all, they’ve spent this season […]
When asked to describe the performance of Robert Griffin III Sunday, Giants defensive lineman Osi Umenyiora offered an honest assessment.
“I’m not even going to lie. That’s the best quarterback we’ve played this year, for sure,” Umenyiora said, per the Giants’ web site. “It’s just unfortunate that he’s a rookie, because he’s going to be around here forever, doing stuff like that. That’s just crazy.”
The Giants have played both the Eagles and Cowboys already this season. In fact, they lost both those games. But Umenyiora will take Griffin over both Michael Vick and Tony Romo. And it sounds like he’s not alone.
Why aren’t the Eagles hitting on more big plays? Michael Vick still has a big-time arm. They still have an outstanding vertical downfield threat in DeSean Jackson and other options like Jeremy Maclin and Brent Celek.
The way I see it, there are three factors. Let’s knock them out, one-by-one, with a little help from the All-22.
Even during the bye week, Michael Vick can’t catch a break.
The Eagles quarterback was headed home to Virginia Beach Wednesday but had to make an unexpected stop in Berlin, Md. because of a flat tire, according to the Salisbury (Md.) Daily Times.
Luckily for Vick, he sustained the flat right across the street from an auto body shop. As he was waiting for his car, Vick, his wife and his two daughters were invited into a nearby gymnasium.
Philadelphia’s starting(?) quarterback was on his way home to Virginia with his family when he got a flat tire in Maryland. Luckily, he was right […]
Donovan McNabb knows what it’s like to hear the whispers. Has felt the sting of getting benched. And experienced the joy of proving his coaches wrong when he was inserted back in the lineup.
With Andy Reid loose in his commitment to Michael Vick lately, McNabb — a guest on Daily News Live Thursday — was asked about his benching against Baltimore in 2008 and high-end play upon his return.
“Well I played pissed off. I played pissed off because I felt like I was the Juan Castillo of the football team,” said McNabb.
Here’s what I saw from the Eagles’ offense after having reviewed the All-22 tape.
Andy Reid, upon completion of his bye-week cell toss, may very well come to the conclusion that the Michael Vick Experience is a flop.
He knows the majority of the 17 “ridiculous” turnovers fall on the quarterback’s shoulders. Reid said Tuesday that he was in the process of reviewing all the season’s offensive miscues. It will be a reminder — as if he needed one — of just how many points were sacrificed and how much momentum was handed over because of carelessness with the football.
Reid also may have thrown on some preseason tape of ol’ Nicky Foles and spent the afternoon daydreaming of a rhythmic, steady and opportunistic offense that would take the Eagles off the high wire.
Tempted as he may be to get off the Michael Vick roller coaster, Reid will almost certainly come away from this evaluation period having determined that he is stuck with Seven. At least until things get truly desperate.
