[ad_1]

Let's go to Philadelphia Eagles connections …

Nigel Bradham explains his absence: "I did not really care about the phone" – NBCSP
"In fact, I had to travel, but after step-by-step procedures, I guess I ate something that does not fit well in my stomach," he said after practice. "So, it just did not work." Bradham acknowledged that he should have contacted Pederson or someone with the Eagles before they had to check with him to find out where he was. "Simply better communicate, of course," he says. "But I did not feel well, so obviously I was not really concerned about the phone and I was not trying to reach out. That's all.

I guess the Eagles will win 13 to 10. I imagine it will be a very defensive game with lots of rockets and potentially turnovers, and I imagine that part of that score will be attributable to turnovers. Otherwise, it's probably not good for Skins. As I said earlier, a scenario that favors each team's passes favors the Eagles. First week games are always the hardest to predict because we do not know who these teams are. This is one of the fun things about the NFL, every year the teams surprise us. As for the season, I would say we're going 8-8, but we could easily exceed or exceed that projection. With Case Keenum at QB, I do not think the offensive will be much worse than with Alex Smith, but not much better either. Case will probably return the ball more often, but it will probably take more than 50-50 shots and open the receivers. I think under him, we will follow especially the model of victories of last year in which the defense can keep the score low and the match on the ground can dominate, but we will let ourselves be carried away in the matches which will become shootings and we will be late. However, the most important factor X is the development of Dwayne Haskins, as he seems to have the potential (if he can clear his mistakes and be more consistent) to win shots on goal and play games on his back.

NFL 2019 Season Forecasts: Playoffs, Super Bowl, Interim Order and Individual Awards – PhillyVoice
Carson Wentz, MVP: Wentz will work with an elite offensive lineup, a talented set of receivers with varied skills, significantly improved halfs and the best tight end duo in the league. Oh, and he is also very good too. It's all for Wentz to post big numbers and do great things in 2019.

Culture and Character of Matter – Iggles Blitz
The Eagles have a strong locker room and a team culture. They keep this in mind when they move in the low season. The Eagles are willing to try their luck with a strong personality, but they make sure that things can work. Michael Bennett was a straight forward player in Seattle. The Eagles felt that it was worth the risk incurred and Bennett played at a high level last year. The Eagles did not want to give him more money, so they treated him in the low season. DeSean Jackson had a difficult time with each of her three teams. Once again, the Eagles felt that the move made sense. The Eagles have wisely limited their investment in these players. Nobody gets a mega deal that the team can not leave. They do not use the key resources to get these players. Even if the Eagles want talent, they believe in the team first and foremost. They also do not want to undermine the coach. This philosophy has served the team well. Culture and character matter.

DeSean Jackson is looking for redemption and this is bad news for the NFL – ESPN
But Pederson has a good idea of Jackson and observed that he was assuming a leadership role. Rookie receiver JJ Arcega-Whiteside said Jackson monitored him daily and stayed after training with him for about 20 minutes to give him extra work or offer him tips. "Everything I need, he's here for that," he says. His former teammates discovered that Jackson was fully engaged and easy to work with. "He's a great guy, and he just came here, he has a great attitude to learn and understand things very quickly," said quarterback Carson Wentz. "And of course, off the field, we might have different hobbies and interests and that sort of thing – he does not come into the woods to hunt with me or anything like that-but we can just talk about life. He has a few children and everything, and we can talk about real life and everything, and about him as a father. So it's good to get to know it on a deeper level than football. "

NFL Pre-Season Power Rankings, Part 4: Philly Special is Back and Ready for the Second Round – The Ring
1) Best Screenplay: The Eagles won the Super Bowl two seasons ago with the best NFL lineup. And guess what? This list is better. While teams around the league are struggling to find running starters, Philly has two depths at almost every position in the depth chart. General Manager Howie Roseman introduced offensive tackle Andre Dillard in the first round in April, giving the Eagles an emergency plan if the tackle needs to keep 37-year-old Jason Peters. The second-round pick, Miles Sanders, is expected to become the team's top scorer, even across a crowded field including Jordan Howard, Corey Clement and Darren Sproles. Rookie receiver JJ Arcega-Whiteside is a clone of Alshon Jeffery – and Alshon Jefffery is still on the list. Roseman has also hired Malik Jackson and DeSean Jackson for relatively inexpensive contracts this season, to further elevate two groups of crucial positions. The amount of talent on this list is absolutely ridiculous.

How a laptop has helped Cam Newton rethink his learning strategy – MMQB
Put early in reserve Howard Jordan and late Miles Sanders. The Eagles love what they've received from the old Bear over the summer, and I guess he's the postman while letting the coaches know to help Sanders get into gear. And I think once Sanders, a staff member, sees him as a real three point back, go ahead, it will be his show. It should be noted that the back field of Philly is much deeper than these two too, with Corey Clement and Darren Sproles in reserve. And yes, as we reported on Wednesday, they pitched Melvin Gordon's tires. But the Eagles were looking for a potential rebate offer – and part of what they are philosophically, a team that plunges right into the pool just about everything (they did it with Jadeveon Clowney, too.) Happy with their backs.

Ranking: 10 offensive lines blocking the race in the NFL – PFF
1. Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles have taken first place in the standings of the offensive line of Senior PFF analyst Mike Renner after the pre-season, and they are able to compare him to the top spot in the league's best blocker standings in 2019. The line is Jason Kelce dominated the center and his score of 92.9 in blocking the race to the top of the league in the past three seasons. His team mate, Lane Johnson, was one of the best attackers in the league, recording a score of 84.7 since 2016, placing him in fourth place on tack with more than 1,000 offensive shots. This group should open many avenues for new additions to the background – Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard.

2019 Personnel Predictions – Football Outsiders
Derrik Klassen: The Philadelphia Eagles face the New England Patriots. Of course, we have already seen this movie before, but some great movies deserve a sequel. The Eagles are ready to return to their 2017 form, while the Patriots are, finally, the Patriots. The plethora of pass collectors and Philadelphia's elite offensive strategy could be enough to knock down Tom Brady and Bill Belichick once again. […] Vincent Verhei: The Philadelphia Eagles face the Los Angeles Chargers. I was in Vegas last month and I put money on the Eagles and Chargers to win their respective conferences. A few days later, Derwin James was injured, of course. But I'll stay with the same two teams anyway – James hurt, they seem to be the most complete and complete lineup of the league.

Bo Wulf and Zach Berman: Predictions for 2018 Eagles – The Athletic
He is more than likely to get his first Pro Bowl sign – In the first two seasons of the NFL, Derek Barnett recorded a bag every 87.7 shots – a better rate than Brandon Graham (105.1 shots) and Fletcher Cox (89.9 shots). That's part of the situation – as a rookie, Barnett did not play as often as the others. It would therefore naturally have more opportunities. But he showed positive signs last season by posting 2.5. the bags in the first four games before the shoulder injury has become a problem. The Eagles are optimistic about Barnett and expect him to make a difference, especially with regards to bag production. (You may have heard that he broke Reggie White's record in Tennessee in three seasons.) Barnett does not have a lot of competition for playing time, and he's in a position for which statistics are playing in the Pro Bowl vote. If he is one of the league leaders in the sacks during the first three months of the season, he will be a legitimate candidate at the Pro Bowl. Last season, there were 22 players with a production of double-digit bags, and 15 of them were invited to the Pro Bowl. In 2017, 14 of the 18 players who registered double-digit bags were successful. And I would have bet on Barnett reaching double-digit bags before Graham, who for nine seasons has never been voted for a Pro Bowl, nor reached double-digit bags. The other players I have considered for this list, such as Nigel Bradham, Ronald Darby or Rodney McLeod, will probably not have statistics that would scream at the Pro Bowl. In attack, I do not think that players like Dallas Goedert, Miles Sanders or Nelson Agholor will have the necessary production. So give me Barnett. (My choice of sleeper is Cameron Johnston.)

And the truth is that the Eagles do not really know who they are. That will take time. "I think all the teams, they could say that they know what they have and I'm just talking to the Philadelphia Eagles, you spend the first two weeks figuring out who you are," said L & # 39; 39 Head Coach Doug Pederson "I heard Tom Brady talk about it, I heard Drew Brees talk about it, I heard other coaches talk about trying to see who their identity is. training camp, even if the starters play (in the preparatory matches), they do not play long enough to really find an identity.

These are not meant to be considered as serious business proposals, but as a starting point for the conversation – simple practical solutions to make us think about the Philly and Washington lists of players before this week's game. I propose 4 simulations of operations.

Philadelphia Eagles cheerleader, Kyle Tanguay, receives all the feelings of fans – Outsports
He was not "the guy with the cheerleaders," he was just a "cheerleader." He was there to celebrate their favorite team, and that's enough for the fans who preceded the season. "One of the things that Eagles fans do well is that they do not want me to be a man or to be homosexual," Tanguay told Outsports. "They are just excited that I'm part of the team."

Brett Toth "very grateful" to the US military for allowing him to play – PFT
Toth had been scheduled to work with the ROTC at Temple University in Philadelphia, but list changes have "launched a whole new process" that has forced the Army JAG Corps to update the movement of staff of the NFL in light of the change of address. Toth is grateful that everything worked for him.

100% correct forecasts for the 2019 NFL season that we will certainly not regret later – SB Nation
The Chiefs were on the verge of participating in the last Super Bowl. Their attack at Madden is pretty much the same, and the defense will be better (not that she has a lot of choice to go anywhere but up). The Eagles have one of the most complete lineups in the NFL and a majority of their players have already participated in this stage before. If you think the leaders are cursed, many people have said the same thing about the Eagles until two seasons ago. It is the year, Kansas City. It's the year!
