There weren't very many casualties in survivor pools last week, whether you made early picks on Turkey Day, or saved them until Sunday, most of the anticipated big winners pulled out the win. The Philadelphia Eagles didn't win very convincingly over the Washington Redskins, but between the Eagles and Bengals my picks were 2-0 last week . For this week, three double-digit favorites are starring us in the face, so depending how deep you are into...  

The Geoffrey Pope experience is no more. Pope, in his second year with 12 career games under his belt, was signed to the Philadelphia Eagles' 53-man roster, writes Jason at Bleeding Green Nation. Pope, typically a third or fourth cornerback when the secondary sustained injuries, is the second Bengals player taken off the practice squad in the past month. Chris Pressley was pulled from the Bengals practice squad onto Tampa Bay's 53-man roster...

We tracked down Bob Brookover, who covers the Eagles for the Philadelphia Inquirer, to talk about this Monday night's opponent. 1. How has the defense adjusted to the departure of longtime star safety Brian Dawkins to free agency, the death of ...  

Wide receiver DeSean Jackson and three other Philadelphia Eagles have been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Jackson, who leads the Eagles with eight touchdowns this season, suffered a concussion in last week's win over the Washington Redskins. "He felt pretty good today, but he's not all the way back yet," Eagles coach Andy Reid said.  

It looks like the Eagles could have Jordan, Hanson, Jackson, and Westbrook all back for this week's game against NYG. They'll all be needed for the tough road game against a division rival. Maybe the injury luck is starting to swing back in our favor.  

This game will be decided by who's not on the field.Falcons are missing their starting QB and RB. Eagles are missing their primary playmaker DeSean JacksonCan McNabb make it 3 straight in 4th quarter comebacks? Will he have to?The key for this game will be who wins the turnover battle. Our defense needs to collect a bunch of them (Chris Redmond is primarily involved here) and our offense needs to grind out a decent game.  

This game was all about the W. W as in Weaver. Oh my freakin goodness. Are you allowed to have a player this good at the FB position? That one handed catch over the middle for big yardage was one of the better catches I've seen this year. Maybe he's been watching our WRs recently. He also had a couple decent runs.For the haters out there, this was not a perfect game. Let's just say that a 27 point win on the road to a team in the...  

There's something about December that brings out the best in the Philadelphia Eagles. After two straight comeback wins in the fourth quarter, the Eagles kicked off their favorite month by routing the undermanned Atlanta Falcons 34-7 on Sunday. The Eagles improved to 8-4 with their third straight victory and are tied with Dallas for first place in the NFC East heading down the stretch.  

Running back Michael Turner and receiver Michael Jenkins are inactive for the Atlanta Falcons and the Philadelphia Eagles are without receiver DeSean Jackson and running back Brian Westbrook. As expected, Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan is inactive with a turf toe injury after not practicing all week. Chris Redman is making his first start since 2007.  

While Andy Reid is hopeful of getting several injured players back for Sunday night's game against the Giants, including wide receiver DeSean Jackson, running back Brian Westbrook and linebacker Akeem Jordan, one player he definitely will have available is cornerback Joselio Hanson. Hanson, the team's valuable nickel corner, sat out the last four games serving a suspension for testing positive for a banned diuretic. Under league rules, he was...

ATLANTA - When Michael Vick finally made it back to the end zone, a place he hadn't been in more than three years, he was torn about what to do.
