Sometimes it can be hard to appreciate the up-and-coming players in Philadelphia when there’s an intense focus on the city’s stars.

But I think now is the perfect time to appreciate what we have for the future with the three teams currently in action.

Quinyon Mitchell, Jared McCain, and Matvei Michkov are all +400 or lower to win their respective Rookie of the Year awards as of Monday morning.

Mitchell’s rise is the most notable of the three because he wasn’t expected to be at the top of the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year conversation.

Philadelphia Eagles news and links for 11/18/24.

Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles links ...

The good vibes are back for the 2024 Eagles - NBCSP
After beating the Commanders on Thursday night, the Eagles gathered in the winning locker room and celebrated together. Nick Sirianni broke down the team, then A.J. Brown presented DeVonta Smith with a birthday cake and the whole team sang — cha-cha-chas included — to the 26-year-old wideout. A bit later, Stevie Wonder played throughout the locker room, a common occurrence during what is now an impressive six-game winning streak since an early bye. The...

The hierarchy of the NFC is taking shape as we enter the 2024 season’s stretch drive.

There’s something comforting about watching an entire slate of Sunday NFL games warm in the knowledge that the Eagles took care of business in a huge divisional match-up a few nights before.

No stress. No queasiness in the pit of your stomach. An opportunity to watch some of the other teams around the league and see how they compare to the Birds.

The Eagles are sitting pretty right now, and when you look around the NFC, it’s obvious they are a cut above everyone...

The Eagles are 8-2, sitting atop the NFC East, and enjoying a six-game winning streak that started back on October 13th.

The offense is playing well, Saquon Barkley is the man, and Jalen Hurts is protecting the ball.

What’s most surprising, and impressive, is that the defense has been lights out ever since the disappointing Tampa game. You put it all together and now they are top five or top 10 across the board in most meaningful statistics (data via Sportradar) –

• 273.1 yards allowed per game (#1)
• 17.9 points allowed per game (#6)
• 99.9 rushing yards...

The Giants have a bye this week but they benched Daniel Jones for Tommy Cutlets. The Cowboys, meantime, lost Dak for the season and play on Monday night with Cooper Rush expected to start for the second week in a row. That means:

Out of the bye week, with the team 2-8, Jones now heads to the bench in...

After a 2-8 start, the Giants decided to make a “football decision” and move on from their QB1.

The Giants finally made the decision to bench Daniel Jones, this after watching their QB1 struggle through 10 weeks of the 2024 NFL season.

The final straw came by way of an overtime loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 10. Their bye week followed the international loss, and Brian Daboll and his staff opted to move a different direction for the remainder of the season.

Jones’ stats this season don’t show a significant drop in production compared to the rest of...

Think you can figure out which Eagles player we’re talking about? You’ll get five clues to figure him out in our new guessing game!

We’re back for another day of the Bleeding Green Nation in-5 daily trivia game, and we’re returning to our system of a new article each day for the game.

We tried using a single article for the game, updated with the latest game each day, but it was creating a bit of an unwieldy experience in the comments. So, we’ll have the current day’s game plus the previous three days in each new article. That way,...

Watch SNF here!

The Eagles are holding steady at No. 2 for now.

With 15 of 16 NFC teams done playing in Week 11, it’s time for a look at the updated NFL playoff picture.

The Philadelphia Eagles are currently the No. 2 seed with a 1.5-game lead in the NFC East after beating the Washington Commanders on Thursday night.

The Birds would’ve liked to see the Detroit Lions lose in order to make up ground on the No. 1 seed for a first-round bye. But the Lions absolutely annihilated Doug Pederson’s Jacksonville Jaguars in a 52 to 6 victory.

The Eagles did...

Saquon Barkley had plenty of reasons to leave the New York Giants.

The team constantly low-balled him, and a clip from Hard Knocks even showed GM Joe Schoen claiming that he wouldn’t pay him as much as he wanted.

Add a Super Bowl contender like the Philadelphia Eagles to the mix, and it was an easy decision.

That gave him an opportunity to go back home and play meaningful games, and he would also make a lot of money in the meantime.

The Eagles gave him a three-year deal worth almost $38 million, and according to Mike Garafolo and Ian...
