NFL video tutorial leaves Eagles players confused on new rule changes

by Jimmy Kempski

On Sunday, a few referees stopped by the Philadelphia Eagles' complex to provide a video demonstration on the NFL's rule changes for the upcoming 2018 season. The media was then welcomed to watch it as well. The tutorial did little to clear up the players' confusion about a controversial rule change in which players are no longer allowed to lower their heads to make tackles. Here is what the players and media saw on Sunday, which I shot with my phone.

Here’s what an NFL team of still active ex-Eagles would look like

by Jimmy Kempski

On Monday, Chad Finn of The Boston Globe fielded a team on paper of ex-New England Patriots that are still active on rosters around the NFL. It turns out that you could field a halfway decent team if you did that with the Pats. Naturally, I wondered what such an Eagles team would look like, so I blatantly ripped off The Boston Globe's headline and made one for Philly. Spoiler: The Eagles' version wouldn't be as good.
