Apparently, weary from relying on their field goal kicker to win a game with a kick from the other side of the 50-yard-line with a second left and relying on their offense to run out the clock so the defense won’t have to hold, the Philadelphia Eagles annihilated the Arizona Cardinals, 34-7, Sunday afternoon at […]
This is a Sunday the Philadelphia Eagles and their fans will remember for quite some time. Not only did the Eagles dominate their opponent, the Arizona Cardinals at Lincoln Financial Field, but their arch-rival, the Dallas Cowboys, lost to the Green Bay Packers. With the Eagles win and Cowboys loss, the birds have a two-game […]
The last two weeks a fingernail clipper is the last thing you’ve needed if you live and die with the Philadelphia Eagles. Those fingernails have been chewed down to the nub as you’ve watched the Eagles win their last two games on a last-second field goal and the next week have to hang on as […]
There were some close inter-conference games in the fourth week of the NFL season. The Eagles (3-1 and first in the NFC East) held on for dear life in their 26-24 win over the Los Angeles Chargers (0-4) – I almost wrote San Diego – and are now riding high on a two-game winning streak. […]
You could of drove a u-haul trailer through the hole Wendell Smallwood used to score the eventual game-winning touchdown in the Eagles’ 26-24 win over the host Los Angeles Chargers Sunday afternoon in an NFL inter-conference game. More about the hosting on the part of the Chargers later, but as for the game, a punishing running […]
The Eagles visit the Los Angeles Chargers – there I remembered to call them the Los Angeles Chargers and not the San Diego Chargers – in what football forecasters are predicting to be a close game. This is a pick ’em game meaning its even up. The Eagles’ top offensive player is out for the […]
Figure out the number of hoagies that were washed down with an adult beverage and the number of hotdogs washed down with a coke, and you come to a pretty good approximation of how many times you heard the words, “what a kick”! following the Eagles 27-24 victory over the New York Giants Sunday at […]
There were a few inter-conference games that were close in the third week of the NFL season and two of those games went into overtime. The Chicago Bears sent their fans home happy with a 23-17 overtime win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bears led at halftime 17-7 and then the Steelers tied it with […]
The Eagles’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs was a tough loss for sure, but it wasn’t heart-breaking. They didn’t lead the entire game only to lose on a last-second field goal. In my more than 50 years of watching Eagles’ football, that is something they have done. But this time they hung in there […]
The 2017 NFL season is only a couple of weeks old, but in inter-conference matchups, the AFC leads NFC 4-3. After the L. A. Rams crushed the Indianapolis Colts 46-9 in the opening week, the AFC won four-of-six games this week. Starting us off was the closest game, a real-nailbiter between the Arizona Cardinals and […]
