The final week before the bye may be the most crucial for the Eagles. Divisional games always prove to be the toughest test. The Giants provide a huge test for the Eagles, who haven’t shown the potential they have on paper. This would be a great time to break out of their funk and show […]
For three quarters, the Eagles played a nearly perfect game, especially in two of three areas. But in the fourth quarter, so many things started to go wrong and nearly cost the Eagles a win. Regardless, the win against the Rams brought the Eagles to 4-1. That’s the good news. The bad news is that […]
Slow starts and offensive struggles finally caught up with the Eagles in Week 4. It wasn’t a clean game for either side, but when it came down to the wire, the Eagles simply weren’t good enough to beat the 49ers, not this week. There are still plenty of things for the Eagles to work on […]
The Eagles were one yard away from a potential 4-0 start and had two plays to get it. But inside the redzone, the plays simply weren't there again. That summed up a horrible day for the Eagles offense, who didn't manage a single point as the Eagles fell for the first time this season, losing […]
The Eagles have been the comeback kids. Three strong second-half performances have keyed a 3-0 start for the Eagles in 2014, putting them in the spotlight.

The Eagles third win of the season didn't feature the late-game comeback that the previous two wins did, but it did involve a comeback that starred Nick Foles and Jordan Matthews.

For the third straight week, it was all unfolding the same way for the Eagles. A slow start in the first quarter, a double-digit deficit, injuries continuing to pile up in the places where they could ill afford them. It has not mattered to the Eagles. They have battled through all of the adversity and […]
The highly-profiled Week 3 game between the Eagles and Redskins featured a little of everything. DeSean Jackson had his moment. The Eagles offense was back on point. And there was even a melee in the fourth quarter. In between all of that, the Eagles erased another double-digit deficit and delivered a strong offensive performance in […]
The last time the Eagles were presented with a chance at a 3-0 start was in 2012, the season of the “Dream Team.” The last time an Eagles team successfully started the season with a 3-0 record, the season ended in February. It’s been a long time since the Eagles started a season this way, […]
