Eagles @ Patriots Preview

The Eagles head into Gillette Stadium to face the undefeated New England Patriots. This New England team is just flat out unbelievable. People believe this is the best team assembled in NFL history. With Tom Brady having the targets at WR, Randy Moss, Wes Welker, and Donte Stallworth, this high dynamic offense is unstoppable. The Eagles still fighting for their playoff hopes to be alive will have more then their hands full.
The Eagles are coming into this game a 24 point underdog. The largest point underdog in NFL history, so no one thinks they have any shot, and sadly to say neither do I. Mcnabb will not be playing and it will leave A J Feeley to start. Therefore they will need to largely lean on Westbrook, who i still believe should be the MVP of the NFL this year. If the Eagles want any shot to keep this game close they need to control the ball and Westbrook will need to go off.
I see this game to be close early on but then a blow out in the second half. Patriots pull away and win this one 42- 17, killing the Eagles playoff chances.

Dolphins @ Eagles Preview

The winless Dolphins, 0-9, come into Philadelphia to face a surging Eagles team. The Eagles need to win this game to .500 for the first time this season. If the Eagles manage not to lose this game, then getting to .500 they should bring up their momentum and possible playoff talk will be in the air in Philly.
The Dolphins are deciding to start John Beck, who will get his first career start. Seems a little silly for his coach to give him his first start in the hostile enviorment of Philadelphia. I believe Jimmy Johnson, the Def. of coordinator of the Eagles will be sending blitz packages all day to shake up the young QB. Therefore, the dolphins will have to lean on their run game with Jesse Chatman. But, Eagles are the 10th best rushing defense in the league, so this could be trouble for the Dolphins this week.
The Eagles looked the best they have all year in the game vs. the Redskins last week. If the Eagles can keep playing at a high level like they did, they should manage to pick up a wild card spot. Mcnabb looked great, and hopefully is finally back to 100%. Westbrook looked like the MVP which he is, but he is a little banged up and questionable for this week, but should suit up and play. He needs to play since he is the engine which runs this offense.
Look for the Eagles to get back to .500 this week in a blowout, 31-10, and Mcnabb having a second straight good game.

Eagles @ Washington Review

The Eagles go into Washington and come up with a huge comeback win. The Eagles manage to get their first win within the division, winning 33-25. The eagles needed this win to get back to 4-5, but more importantly get their first win within their division, which could be crucial when it comes to tiebreaker time. The Redskins drop to 5-4 and look to be on a downward spiral.
The Eagles showed a little sparkle of what we remember them as when they went to the NFC championship game 3 years in a row. Mcnabb looked the best he has all year, going 20-28 for 251 yards and 4 TD's. He was also able to scramble much more and ran for the most he has all year going for 37 yards.
Westbrook once again looked great. He rushed the ball 20 times for 100 yards and 1 TD, but he also caught the ball 5 times for 83 yards and two TD's. He caught a late screen pass from Mcnabb and took it to the house, giving the win to the Eagles.
Eagles get back to one game under .500 and welcome the winless dolphins into town next week. They should be .500 after that game and the playoffs will be back in the mind og the Eagles and their fans.

Eagles @ Redskins

The Philadelphia Eagles head into Washington, where the two bottom dwellers of the NFC East will be facing off. The Eagles come into the bout at 3-5 while the Redskins are 5-3. The redskins still have some hope at winning a wild card spot to gain a post-season berth. Therefore, they have a lot to play for at home and will try their best to come out with a victory. The Eagles otherwise look like they have no shot in getting a playoff berth. They have looked horrible this year and most likely will have a tough time with Washington.
If the eagles can not get the ball moving through the air this game i believe it is time to sit Mcnabb and look forward to the future, and put in Kolb. The Eagles know that Mcnabb is pretty much done here, with the fans all over their case, and Mcnabb making the most money in his contract next year. They need to look forward to the future and let Kolb get the experience for next year.
The next question of the Eagles mind is the coach Andy Reid. He is under a lot of pressure because of his kids, and I personally think if the Eagles lose the next few games the blame will start to fall intensely on him and he will step down from the head coaching position due to family reasons.
The Eagles I believe will lose a close one to the Redskins this week, 17 -13. I think once again Westbrook will be the only bright spot rushing for 120 and 1 TD. But the Eagles drop to 3-6.

Dallas @ Eagles Review

Once again the Eagles look terrible in prime time TV. The Eagles lose a horrible game to their division rivals, the Dallas Cowboys, 38-17. The Eagles fall to 3-5, while the Cowboys improve their record to 7-1. With this loss the Eagles look like they are defiantly out of playoff contention. The Eagles had that 5 year window to win a superbowl, but it looks like the window has finally shut, and we will have to deal with a rebuilding, mediocre team for the next few years.
Brian Dawkins came back to the Eagles secondary this week, but it didn't help one bit. The Eagles allowed Tony Romo to throw for 324 yds and 3Td's. They allowed the dreaded Terrell Owens to catch 10 balls for 174 yds and 1 TD. The secondary has slowly been looking worse each week, and needs to pick it up a notch if they want any chance to win a few more games.
Mcnabb look pretty bad once again. He fumbled on the first play of the game, while dancing around in the pocket. That is one thing that annoys me, he never make a quick decision to scramble or to throw the ball away, he just dances around in the pocket and 9 times out of 10 it turns into a bad play. I believe this is def Mcnabb's last year unless some how the Eagles can go on a crazy run and make the playoffs. The only bright spot the Eagles had once again is Brian Westbrook. Brian Westbrook is flat out a beast and I believe they should start building the team around him.
The Eagles head into Washington Next week for another divisional game, a must win, since every game from now on out is a must win.
