The Philadelphia Eagles might not need to be without one of their best players for much longer. They may have dodged a massive bullet.
As reported by Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer, Lane Johnson will not have to be placed on Injured Reserve. He won’t require surgery, and he might be back within four weeks after suffering a Lisfranc injury to his right foot on the team’s win over the Detroit Lions.
#Eagles didn’t place Lane Johnson on injured reserve today because he won’t need surgery and there’s a good chance he could return within four games after...
A storied NFC East rivalry is renewed as the Eagles travel to Jerry World to face the Dallas Cowboys in a pivotal divisional showdown. This matchup presents a fascinating clash of offensive philosophies, with the Eagles building their success on discipline and efficiency while boasting an impressive +7 turnover differential and a clinical 75.0% red zone conversion rate. With premier weapons like DeVonta Smith and Saquon Barkley, the Birds excel at capitalizing on every scoring opportunity.
On the other side, the Cowboys field a high-octane offense that puts up a potent 29.0 points per game. The connection between quarterback **Dak...

The Philadelphia Eagles sit atop the NFC East, yet their path has been anything but straightforward. Much of the scrutiny has centered on quarterback Jalen Hurts, who faces criticism from various angles, including some within the organization.
Despite the pressure, Hurts maintains composure and appears unfazed by external noise. Former defensive end Chris Canty believes the Eagles’ concerns about Hurts go beyond surface-level frustration. He suggested the franchise itself harbors doubts about its signal-caller’s standing within the system.
“Jalen Hurts is a top-five quarterback, in my eyes. I don’t know if the Philadelphia Eagles view him that way,” Canty...
Who says the Eagles and Cowboys rivalry has been dead for the last decade? Don’t tell that to the schoolchildren of Philadelphia. This is a bizarro world episode of Abbott Elementary:
George Pickens gonna have a worse headache than waking up after a bender in Vegas. HEYO!
This is awesome! I love this city. Where else can you get the news showing up to an elementary school with pictures of Cowboys players taped to punching bags so children can unleash right and left hooks on their faces? Nowhere. Screw math, these kids are going to remember this day for the...

The BOYS at 105.3 the fan think it’s gonna be a close game between Dallas and Philly this weekend. They’re pointing out a stat you may have heard 47 times this week already, that Dak hasn’t lost an NFC East home game since 2017:
That 2017 game wasn’t even close. Dak threw three picks against a team that would go on to win the Super Bowl a few months later. The Birds put up 215 rushing yards in a 37-9 win. It was a total blowout.
The thing about the Eagles and Cowboys is that they typically split the season...

CeeDee Lamb confirmed he and George Pickens got drunk in Vegas and missed curfew before the Cowboys/Raiders game and that’s why they were benched for the first series on Monday night. Lamb didn’t puke though. He wants to set the record straight. Everyone knows CeeDee Lamb knows how to handle his liquor:
You know what makes me think someone can’t hold their liquor? Being the guy who has to put it on record that you can hold your liquor. We all knew that guy in high school in college that told everyone they can outdrink anyone and then they’re curled...

The Eagles led off practice with “Hate Me Now” by Nas, seemingly being a shot at all the haters and doubters for which there are many in the media locally and nationally:
“But Kyle this is probably just a playlist some intern cooked up you’re looking to much into this?“
Oh am I? Does anyone remember last year when they started off with this little number:
That was following AJ Brown mentioning “passing” needed to improve after the Panthers game while Brandon Graham went on his show and said “1 is trying and 11 could be better with...

Jalen Hurts has a career 54-22 record as the starting quarterback. He is the reigning Super Bowl MVP who has outplayed Patrick Mahomes on the biggest stage twice, led the team to the playoffs every year he has been the quarterback, and the Super Bowl on two occasions. The Eagles are off to an 8-2 start this season with Hurts at the helm, with the quarterback throwing for 16 touchdowns, rushing for six, and having just one interception on the season thus far.
By any objective measure, this is about as much of a glowing success as possible. Franchises across...

Over on Kalshi they have an interesting event involving the next NFL coach fired. One of the juiciest trades involves ex-defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon who helped lead a unit in 2022 to the Super Bowl before taking the Cardinals job. Now I still think the reports of him having more focus on his next gig than the impending Super Bowl are some of the dumbest things a reporter has ever written in this city, especially after reports of Kellen Moore becoming the Saints coach leaked BEFORE Super Bowl 59, but if it still sticks in your crawl you can at...

The Philadelphia Eagles continue to win games. However, they don’t look like the offensive juggernaut they were last season.
Some claim that new offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo is to blame for this regression. Others, however, blame quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Notably, that includes former NFL wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh, who said the Eagles’ star “has to get better.”
“[Jalen Hurts] has to get better. If he doesn’t get better, the Eagles aren’t winning the Super Bowl. They’re just not going to be able to shut everybody out on the defense,” Houshmandzadeh said.
"The Eagles won't win another Super Bowl...
Cam Skattebo up to his latest offseason shenanigans: hanging out with streamers in the mall and getting chirped by Eagles fans:
“If you see me in public and you say “Go Birds” it makes no sense.”
What is he talking about? I think that “Go Birds” might’ve legitimately broke his brain. This guys streaming and he doesn’t know what trolling is? I’m old as fuck in Internet years and I understand what trolling is. Have the hits to the head already developed side effects? If anything this just opened up the floodgates for more “Go Birds” to be shouted...

The Philadelphia Eagles prepare for Sunday’s matchup against the Dallas Cowboys while navigating significant depth issues along their offensive line. All-Pro right tackle Lane Johnson missed Wednesday’s practice after suffering a Lisfranc injury during the team’s Week 11 win over Detroit.
Johnson was limited to 14 snaps before Fred Johnson took over at the position and has remained there since. Head coach Nick Sirianni has publicly backed his replacement at tackle. The confidence extends beyond the current circumstances, with the coaching staff viewing Fred Johnson as a capable starter when called upon.
“Nick Sirianni emphasizes the confidence in Fred...
