As we rise to the news that the Cowboys have cut Terrell Owens, it just begs the question: could he reunite with McNabb? They have texted and made up, traded barbs and traded compliments and generally acted as a couple who has gone through a rough patch (as do all QBs who have come into contact with...

Andy Reid is certainly built to survive in cold weather, but unfortunately his Eagles couldn’t make the same claim. Days before the Arizona Cardinals nearly applied a death blow to Steeler Nation, the Pro Football Hall of Fame, in conjunction with Coors Light (for when you feel like having a p...

The enlightened and rational fan understands that the Eagles defense gave up 32 points to the Cardinals in the NFC Championship game, allowing 24 first-half points to leave them buried in a hole. The irrational fan screams that Donovan McNabb can’t win the big game and blames him for the team&...

John Cole passes on a Cold, Hard Football Facts essay arguing that Ben Roethlisberger is, despite the naysayers, an elite QB.  The essence of the argument is that, hey, he wins a lot of games so he must be good.

Six years ago my cousins in South Jersey told me a little joke:  "Why do the Eagles eat their cereal from the box?" Answer:  "Because they choke when they get close to the bowl." It does seem that way, doesn't it?  Analysts argue endlessly about whether clutch performance actu...

Great day of football yesterday. Sure, our Eagles lost, but they got more post-season play than any Eagles fans expected until perhaps the final moments of week 17. And now, how can you NOT root for Kurt “The Phoenix” Warner? With his merry band of fractured-faced receivers (Boldin), uni...

There’s a lot of stuff going on in the NFL this week. Coaches getting fired (Jon Gruden [should have been fired 2 years ago] was fired from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers) and coaches getting hired (Steve Spagnuolo, the defensive coordinator of the New York Giants). But the real question and the r...
