by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles placed DeSean Jackson on injured reserve on Tuesday. While he could potentially return during the playoffs, should the Eagles make it there, it's not looking good. His regular season is definitively over.

Eagles power ranking roundup: Week 10

by Jimmy Kempski

Are power rankings completely dumb and meaningless? Yes. Yes, they are. However, personally speaking, whenever I see them, I click. And now that I've sucked you in with promises of many power rankings, you'll read it and like it.

by Jimmy Kempski

Week 9 of the 2019 NFL regular season is in the books, and this is the time of year when teams start dropping from contention like flies. This week, we have our fourth obituary of the season. That would be the New York Giants, who we easily could have killed off weeks ago.

Andrew Sendejo or a fourth-round compensatory pick: Which should the Eagles choose?

by Jimmy Kempski

Howie Roseman, Doug Pederson, Jim Schwartz, and the Philadelphia Eagles have an interesting decision to make this week. (In Monty Hall voice)... "Howie, you can either have safety Andrew Sendejo, or an extra pick at the end of the fourth round in the 2020 NFL Draft. What's it gonna be?"

Eagles-Bears inactives, with analysis

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles will be getting a slew of players back from injury this week, including DeSean Jackson, Avonte Maddox, Timmy Jernigan, and Darren Sproles, and they avoided missing Miles Sanders, who injured his shoulder last week against the Buffalo Bills. Are their injury fortunes turning around?

Open thread recap: Eagles 22, Bears 14

by Jimmy Kempski

The 4-4 Philadelphia Eagles badly needed to get back in the win column last Sunday in Buffalo against the Bills, and they did. On Sunday, they'll face a similarly desperate team in the 3-4 Chicago Bears, who have lost three straight games.

Handing out 10 awards from the Eagles-Bears game

Week 9 non-Eagles Sunday rooting guide

by Jimmy Kempski

Each week this season we have laid out a rooting guide for non-Eagles games on the NFL schedule, based on the premise that the Birds are Super Bowl contenders. They have not looked much like contenders to win it all through the first half of the season, but we'll see if that changes down the stretch as they get some players back from injury. Anyway, here are the best scenarios for the Eagles this week outside of Philly, with the ideal winners in bold.
