Handing out 10 awards from the Eagles-Buccaneers game

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles have lost a game, and are not invincible. Obviously, Doug Pederson should be fired, Howie Roseman should board a space shuttle destined for the sun, and Jake Elliott should stand in the middle of the city so that everyone can spit on him for having the audacity to miss a field goal. As always, win or lose, we hand out 10 awards.

Week 2 non-Eagles Sunday rooting guide

by Jimmy Kempski

In past seasons, Philadelphia Eagles fans generally rooted for their own team, and kept an eye on the rest of the NFC East. In 2018, with the Birds being favorites to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl, it's perhaps worth keeping tabs on the conference, as opposed to just the division. And so, each week we'll lay out a rooting guide for non-Eagles games on the NFL schedule, and yes, I'm aware that most of the below is obvious.

Eagles-Buccaneers final injury report, with analysis

by Jimmy Kempski

The banged-up Philadelphia Eagles picked up a win Week 1 against the healthy Atlanta Falcons, despite a long list (relatively speaking for Week 1) of injured or suspended players. This week, the Birds will face a team in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that is similarly handicapped due to player absences. Here's the Eagles-Buccaneers final injury report before game day.

NFL Films names Eagles No. 1 touchdown celebrating team of 2017

by Jimmy Kempski

Apparently, NFL Films recorded a show to run at some point on NFL Network on the Top 10 list for end zone celebrations of 2017. The Eagles were the clear and obvious choice for the No. 1 spot. It was fun watching the following clip of the Eagles' many, many celebrations last season.

Pederson: Nick Foles will start Week 2 vs. Buccaneers

by Jimmy Kempski

The weekly question of, "Who will start the next game for the Philadelphia Eagles" has been answered. On Wednesday, Doug Pederson said his Week 2 quarterback against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be... (drumroll)... Nick Foles. But you already knew that, assuming you read the headline. Carson Wentz's 2018 debut will have to wait at least another week.
