Birds’ Eye View: The Good, The Bad & The Ugly from the Eagles Win
WIN: Well, it didn’t start pretty, but it certainly ended beautifully. The Eagles are now 4-0 and still sole undefeated team of the NFL since 2004. There was good, there was bad and there certainly was ugly parts to today’s game. Let’s discuss. The Good: Running the Ball Whether wet or dry weather, running the…

Birds’ Eye View: PREVIEW – Eagles-Jaguars
What another week to welcome home a former Philadelphia Eagle. Doug Pederson comes to the Linc this week with his team, the Jacksonville Jaguars, to compete against his former Super Bowl-winning team. Unlike former players, Doug will hopefully be applauded and cheered on upon entering the stadium. The Eagles will face a pretty good team,…

Birds’ Eye View: Maybe it’s time to buy in to the hype?
Victory Tuesday had a nice ring to it, especially when the Philadelphia Eagles comfortably won against the Vikings in a Monday night showdown at the Lincoln Financial Field. The Philadelphia Eagles are really cooking. They’ve got something going and the national media is taking notice. Yes, the Eagles are better as underdogs, but maybe we…

Birds’ Eye View: Eagles ‘Slay’ the day with a win
The Lincoln Financial Field was packed with electricity and the Eagles delivered on Monday night with a hot game against the Minnesota Vikings. The Eagles won, 24-7. It was a hot start by the Philadelphia Eagles with Jalen Hurts moving the ball around to get downfield to strike first. Hurts had a near-perfect first quarter,…

Birds’ Eye View: PREVIEW – Eagles-Vikings
We’re over last week. It’s a new week of Eagles football. To all the Eagles fans who had an extra day to remain calm, I’m right there with you. What a week it has been. Supposed Jalen Reagor revenge. Justin Jefferson being happier in Minnesota than Philly. To top it off, the 2018 NFC Chip…

The Wawa orders I would give to the Philadelphia Eagles
What better way to celebrate the day after National Hoagie Day than with the most Philly article I’ve ever written? With the return of the NFL season – and a string of commercials that Avonte Maddox, Dallas Goedert and DeVonta Smith have created for the popular Delaware Valley convenience store – here’s what I think…

Birds’ Eye View: The Eagles’ toxic trait is giving their fans anxiety
“Oh, it’s only the Lions, this is an easy win for the Birds.” Yeah, last season. It can’t get much easier for the Eagles than a team that went 3-13-1 last season. But somehow, it took one drive (and 61 total penalty yards) early in the game to turn things around. The Philadelphia Eagles survived…

Birds’ Eye View: PREVIEW – Eagles-Lions
Eagles football is now OFFICIALLY back! It feels so good saying that for, like, the third time but actually meaning it this time. What better way to kick off the season than with the team they beat 44-6 last year? Granted, the Lions are not the same team they were last year. The 3-13-1 team…

Birds’ Eye View: Welcome to the Eagles ‘Villain Era’
Oh, I said it. Welcome to the Philadelphia Eagles’ “villain era.” For those who aren’t familiar with the phrase, this “era” refers to a shift in priorities and perspective on society and societal pressures to always play nice. Pop culture accepted this concept way before there was a name for it. Taylor Swift shifted her perspective…

Birds’ Eye View: Preseason – Eagles-Dolphins
Not even worried. And no, I did not watch this game either. Consistency is key. But just like my consistency in not watching Eagles preseason games so I don’t get emotionally invested so soon, the team has been very consistent throughout the preseason. There were some good and bad consistencies, but consistent nonetheless. The Philadelphia…
