Eagles-Chargers inactives, with analysis

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles will head into Week 9 of the NFL regular season reasonably healthy, as they only have one player designated as "out." Of course, they do have four starters on injured reserve. The Chargers are a little more banged up, with some significant issues in their secondary and on their offensive line.

Week 9 non-Eagles rooting guide

by Jimmy Kempski

They'll still do that in 2021 (for now, I guess), but there are even more peripheral rooting interests for Birds fans this season because they own 2022 draft picks from other teams. And so, each week we'll lay out a rooting guide for non-Eagles games on the NFL schedule.
