Just preparing you for the inevitable.


OK OK just kidding but I shouldn't be doing this, joking about injuries is not funny. Back to the WR it sure looks like a good gamble, you need WR help and didn't give up much for a guy with upside.

Wentz took a helmet shot to the ribs. That's a big difference from a major non-contact injury to one's legs/knees.

Regarding the receivers - I agree.

I had been reading that the current crop of receivers are not taking the signing as a signal to them. Are they nuts? Of course it's a signal that they suck as a group right now. This is not a typical signing with regards to this guy's character... but yeah - the current crop of receivers desperately need help.

The fact that Tennessee gave up on him after one year is a red flag to me. But there isn't much risk as far as compensation at least.

All true. Worth a shot though, current receivers are bad.

Another good defensive effort last night. Any shutout is a good shutout. 9 turnovers in two games.

Offense still needs work - but was better than last week. 298 total yds. this week. Bradford was very accurate - even on his incompletions. Need to finish drives.

IF the defense can play that well in the regular season, the offense won't need to score that many points - BUT this is still preseason.

All Philly QBs continue to put up poor YPA's, but this game was an improvent over the last game.

I saw a lot of the first half and Bradford was mainly doing dink and dunk and check down passes. I don't know if it was Philly not wanting to show their hand before the season.

The four turnovers, take those with a grain of salt. I think Landry Jones may be the worst backup in the NFL. He has no arm strength.

Combined with 5 turnovers from last week, there seems to be trend that's occurring.. I hope.
