It’s Been A Very Easy Week To Be An Eagles Fan In The News

Atlanta Falcons Somehow Lose To Nick Foles<em></em>

The Falcons' Defense Is Finding Itself At Just The Right Time

Their offense, eve...

Why Does Jon Gruden Think The Philadelphia Stadiums Are "Downtown"?
Philadelphia teams have been tanking incompetently since before Sam Hinkie was alive. The 1968 Eagles started out 0-11 and looked like a lock to draft O.J. Simpson No. 1 overall.

Things Eagles Fans Said Outside The L.A. Coliseum About Carson Wentz’s Injury
LOS ANGELES — I knew it as soon as I saw Carson Wentz walking to the tunnel. The Eagles had just scored a touchdown to take the lead. The Coliseum, which had to be about 40 percent Eagles fans, was rocking. But from Row 93 I spotted it. Wentz was walking to the tunnel with a towel over his head....

Carson Wentz Out For Day With Knee Injury [UPDATE]
The Rams and Eagles, two of the best teams in the NFC, have been trading leads all afternoon, but if Philadelphia is going to pull out a win in L.A., they’re going to have to do it without stud QB Carson Wentz.

The Dolphins Were Fed Up With Jay Ajayi And The Eagles Are Going For It
In October 2016, the Dolphins abandoned their running-back-by-committee approach and handed the featured role to Jay Ajayi, who transformed into one of the league’s best backs, kick-started the offense, and helped Miami make the playoffs for the first time in eight years. This morning, Miami shipped...

Eagles Mime Baseball Again With Hit-By-Pitch TD Celebration
Earlier this month, the Eagles scored a touchdown and celebrated with an elaborate baseball-themed celebration. Nelson Agholor threw a pretend ball, and Torrey Smith knocked it over the fence. Today, Alshon Jeffery scored on a long pass from QB Carson Wentz, and teammate Zach Ertz “plunked” him....
