Should Nick Sirianni Be in Consideration for Coach of the Year?


It seems so long ago but when Nick Sirianni gave his awkward introductory press conference as Eagles head coach it seemed like things were not going to go well. It was hard enough for him to fill in the shoes of Doug Pederson, the first head coach to deliver a Lombardi trophy to Philadelphia, but […]

Devonta Smith Was The Right Pick


If nothing else, every season the Eagles bye week reminds me of one thing about Philadelphia fans and media alike: If they cannot find drama, they will create it.   Imagine #Eagles didn’t project Micah Parsons as rusher, otherwise decades-old philosophy would have likely resulted in taking him over DeVonta Smith at 10. Unless they […]

The Flyers Find Themselves Lost In The Wilderness . . . AGAIN


Before we get started with this article I think we need to watch this video:   https://youtu.be/M7gcoNn8shY   That right there is a security dog on the Flyers ice who needed to go while standing in the middle of the Flyer logo. And when a dog’s gotta go, the dog’s gotta go regardless of when […]

Call Me Crazy, But…The 5-7 Eagles Can Still Make The Playoffs


Let’s start this off with a quote from the Philly Sports Bible that is completely real and definitely not made up.   “As thy fans of Philadelphia sports garner confidence and expectation in a beloved team, thou must be reminded of what it means to be humble. The only way to do that is with […]

Week 12 Preview: Philadelphia Eagles (5-6) at New York Giants (3-7)


In the wise words of Heath Ledger’s Joker, “And here…we…go.”   The Eagles improbable run to the postseason has begun. Every game from here on out is essentially a playoff game for the young Birds if they hope to get one of the seven postseason spots in the NFC. The stars seem to be aligning. […]

Week 11 Preview: New Orleans Saints (5-4) at Philadelphia Eagles (4-6)


If the Eagles win this game, we’re back in. That if is a big if, but it’s certainly possible.   “But Matt, all you’ve said over the past few weeks is how much this Eagles team sucks!” First of all, how dare you take my words and use them against me. That’s right, I said […]

Just When We Thought We Were Out, The Birds Pull Us Back In!


Over the past two months the Eagles season has been fairly up-and-down. One week they look dominant and are a well-balanced machine and the next week they fall flat. Motivation to watch them has been low been this season since it’s been more about seeing what they have in their young quarterback and new head […]

Week 10 Preview: Philadelphia Eagles (3-6) at Denver Broncos (5-4)


I tried to tell ya. I tried my best to explain to you all that this team Is. Not. Good. Granted, the Eagles played a lot better last week then even my most hopeful thoughts anticipated.   The offense looked good. A heavy emphasis on the running game with a young quarterback, young receivers, and […]

Week 9 Preview: Los Angeles Chargers (4-3) at Philadelphia Eagles (3-5)


Did I miss something?   Has everyone forgotten that this Eagles team is bad? Am I supposed to forget that people were calling for Nick Sirianni’s head exactly one week ago? Hell, was I supposed to forget the whole flower thing that happened last week?   All of a sudden, after one beatdown of a […]
