Are you ready for some Football

It's been two preseason games, my Eagles are now 1-1 first was a win vs the Baltimore Ravens where the starters quickly marched down the field scored a quick touchdown and sat down, and the second was a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers where the starting offense posted a goose egg and the starting defense surrendered 21 points. Now to be honest in the first game it wasn't actually all of the starting offense because Desean Jackson was still holding out and Jeremy Maclin was still suffering from his then undisclosed but highly speculated disease. It turned out to be a virus and Maclin should be able to practice by next week and hopefully play on opening night. Jackson played versus Pittsburgh and in an example of what SHOULD happen for the rest of the year with no Maclin on the other side he was tripled covered on the opening play just in case the Eagles decided to go for their opening play quick strike(which they unsuccessfully did).

The game of the week

When I heard this billed as the game of the week last week, I was like meh marketing whoopdee how you gonna call a game of the week before a down is played. But it seems to be living up to the billing.

Damn first int by Vick its been a see saw back and for battle both offenses came to play and the defenses ain far behind. Tipped passes happen, nothing you can do about that when they get popped up. So I'm mad we are down by 8 instead of up by 6 but its only one half. We seem to have made the right adjustments on the oline, just gotta change cleats and get the D in better position.

Hopefully we can hold chicago's offense in the second. But this was a great first half for both teams no injury hard hitting play some flags were missing but it wasn't terrible so first half in the books we are down but not out, and save one turnover and we have the lead at the half.

Putting this in the books so I can watch the second half
