Nelson Agholor isn't going anywhere for a while

by Jimmy Kempski

Nelson Agholor isn't a good NFL receiver. You know it. I know it. The Eagles' coaching staff (probably) knows it. People who don't ever watch football and casually take in a game on occasion know it.

Here are 24 Eagles drops in 65 seconds

by Jimmy Kempski

After watching incomplete passes literally all day (I may need a girlfriend), by my count, the Eagles have dropped 24 passes so far this season, which account for roughly 22 percent of Carson Wentz's incomplete passes. Dropped passes are of course a subjective statistic, so those numbers may vary from others', but here's the final tally.

Does Jason Peters have another year left in him in 2017?

by Jimmy Kempski

A couple weeks ago, we took a way too early look at the Philadelphia Eagles' offseason needs, and determined that offensive tackle was at the top of the list. The premise for that assertion was that Jason Peters will turn 35 in January, and this could be his last season in the NFL. But what if Peters can play another season? The question was posed to him post-game after the Eagles' win over the Atlanta Falcons.

Live updates/open thread from the Eagles' 24-15 victory over the Falcons

by Jimmy Kempski

Doug Pederson described last week's matchup against the New York Giants as a "must win." And win they didn't. This week, sitting at 4-4 at the bottom of the NFC East, the Eagles will take on the Atlanta Falcons. Seeing as the Birds will travel to Seattle next week and have the hardest remaining schedule in the NFL, there is no longer all that much room for error if they are going to be playoff contenders.

Handing out 10 awards from the Eagles-Falcons game

by Jimmy Kempski

At 4-4, facing the prospect of being 4-5 and making the trip to Seattle to face the extremely tough Seahawks, the Philadelphia Eagles absolutely had to take care of business at home and beat the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. And that's exactly what they did.
