Nick Foles Goes Berserk For A Seven-Touchdown Day
Michael Vick was sitting with a hamstring injury he re-aggravated last week, so Nick Foles got his chance as Philadelphia's quarterback of the week. It's safe to say he did an acceptable job, throwing an astounding seven touchdowns (along with 406 yards) in a 49-20 rout of the Raiders....

GOALIE FIGHT!

The scamps over at the New York Post's Page Six got ahold of a copy of Julius Erving's autobiography today, and immediately dredged up an unsavory bit of tid.

Kicked-Out Cowboys Fan Gets A Very Philly Send-Off From Eagles Fans

Nick Foles Is Struggling, And Marcus Vick Is Loving It
It's an unexpected defensive showdown in Philadelphia, as the Cowboys lead the Eagles 3-0 at the half.
