Could the Eagles cut both Matt Barkley AND Tim Tebow?

by Jimmy Kempski

In 2014, there were 15 teams -- Bears, Bengals, Bills, Broncos, Browns, Chargers, Colts, Dolphins, Jaguars, Jets, Patriots, Ravens, Saints, Seahawks, and Vikings -- that kept just two quarterbacks on their roster. That is almost half the league.

Would Robert Griffin III interest Chip Kelly and the Eagles?

by Jimmy Kempski

Robert Griffin III is probably going to be released by the Redskins, seeing as Washington named Kirk Cousins the starter, and Griffin's $16 million-plus roster option in 2016 is fully guaranteed if he gets injured.

Five things to watch in the Eagles' third preseason game against the Packers

by Jimmy Kempski

The third preseason game is the "dress rehearsal game," and the best look at the Eagles' starters that we'll get before the regular season begins. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear as though Aaron Rodgers will play much, if at all. He would have been a great test for the Eagles defense. Still, there's plenty to watch tonight. Here are five things I'll be watching.

Nolan Carroll volleyballed Walter Thurmond's INT vs. Ravens

by Jimmy Kempski

As a defensive back, there's more to having good ball skills than just getting interceptions. In the last preseason game against the Ravens, starting CB Nolan Carroll showed excellent ball skills when he was able to deflect a deep pass intended for Kamar Aiken that was intercepted by Walter Thurmond.

by Jimmy Kempski

While OL, safety, and OLB depth is concerning, the Eagles have good-to-great depth at QB, RB, WR, TE, DL, and ILB. In some of those cases, their depth is outstanding.

A recap of the opposing players the Eagles won't have to face so far in 2015, updated

by Jimmy Kempski

Many of the Eagles' opponents in 2015 will be missing key players due either to injury or suspension. Let's recap the player they will not be facing.
