Well, they lost ugly to the Saints as most of us figured they would, but not because of Kolb. I think Kolb earned another start if McNabb can't go. How do they use Vick? Not sure KC does anything to scare anyone, although if the STs and defense play like they did against the Saints, they'll probably lose.
I agree about Kolb, unless McNabb is close to 100% why chance making it worse? Kolb played a lot better then I thought he would. Sit westbrook and go with McCoy.
Kolb will look even awesomer against the Chiefs than he did the Saints, which will make McNabb's return all the more entertaining.

Quote from: PhillyPhanInDC on September 20, 2009, 04:13:44 PMHow do they use Vick?
The best use of Vick would be to have him stand on the sideline and shove his wang in Andy's mouth any time he looks like he's going to challenge a play.

or when he wants to pass on a 3rd and long pinned deep into their own redzone, already down, and with less than 2 min to go. AWESOME COACH!
I think the smart money is on McNabb sitting it out this upcoming week again too. They can incorporate more wildcat with Vick being eligible to play next week. I much rather have McNabb on 3 weeks continuous rest and be available for the remaining 13 games of the season than to not let it heal as best as it can and risk it being a huge issue every week.
If they can't handle the Chiefs next week, at home, with Michael Vick being eligible, then this team may have more problems than they displayed today.
Jay Glazer said that not only is McNabb's rib broke, it's broken off. Which means if he gets hit there, it could end his season. Sucks. Balls.

But Big Red said it was sticky!!
Kolb earned the start.
There is no reason these clowns shouldn't run off the next 5 as wins. They ought to be 6-1 after the Washington MNF game.
It probably came unstuck during McNabb's golfclap on the sidelines.
Or grimacing while watching Kolb miss his guys and throw it to the Saints
Or Shawn Andrews sliced him open and ate it.
That would be the best option. Get rid of the rogue broken off rib and get him back on the field.
5-1 Jay...6-1 will be after they smoke the Giants.
lol
they just got rolled and its all peaches and cream
look at the upcoming schedule...im pretty sure i (or phreak) wouldnt say that if they were playing their next 4 games against the nfls best
even so w/ a gimpy mcnabb and westbrook aint nothin guaranteed
cant ask for much better than kc/bye/tb/oak for the next month though...

No way. Not peaches and cream, but no way one of those teams wins. I don't care if Kolb is QBing or you are.
lol @ no way. like the eagles are elite.
Considering the Eagles track record and how they always drop a game they shouldn't, I expect them to lose to the Raiders. It has to happen.
I expect them to lose to the awful, awful taterskins.
OK, I'll go with Tampa Bay. Birds lose on a last second 60 yard FG. Oh, and Kolb pukes late in the fourth.
So, Jay Glazer...doesn't he always make some breaking news nonsense that turns out to be all wrong? Is he the only one reporting this information?
And mds, so not peaches and cream. But the defense isnt' that bad, its somewhere between the Saints and Panters game...the special teams...one big fat solution, get Clemons the farg off the field. His penalties on ST killed them all day. Fumbles happen, Hobbs shouldn't be doing that on a regular basis.
On a regular day with mcNabb, that game is a shootout and the Eagles COULD have won. At home, probably would have.
Kolb has about as much leadership skill as he does talent. There was, at NO TIME in that game, any confidence that they would march down the field and score. For all of those who say McNabb has none of the leadership skills or field general skills, Kolb should have put that into perspective yesterday.
Everyone excited about the annual week-before-the-bye malaise and potential loss to an inferior opponent?
where was i when the eagle became so dominant that you can just chalk up 4-5 wins in a row without even blinking
you were in realityland
is that near Centrallia?
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4491911
kolb will start vs cheifs if mcnabb can't go. i guess kolb might have sort of kind of played ok enough to earn another start but i'm kind of curious what was the point of bringing garcia in. i'd rather still have baskett in this case.
The point is that McNabb is hurt and Vick is ineligible. If Kolb got hurt Jackson would have been wildcatting on every down.
your face is ineligible.
I don't think that's actually written anywhere in the rulebook. May be up for a vote though this offseason.

Think RJS was screwing around.
Peter King FWIW:
Quote
5. I think the one thing all you Eagle/Vick followers need to understand about the quarterback situation in Philly is this: Vick was never, ever signed to be the regular quarterback, isn't ready to be the regular quarterback, and wouldn't be prepared to digest an entire gameplan until at least November. I can guarantee you that Andy Reid, if he needs a quarterback to sub for McNabb this week and/or next, is dead-set on Kevin Kolb. As Reid said to me Sunday night: "Kevin Kolb is the least of my worries. He threw for, what, 380 yards?'' Nope; 391.
6. I think the weirdness of the Shawn Andrews situation in Philadelphia is probably ultimately going to lead to him resuming his career elsewhere. After touting him as their right tackle of the future all offseason, the Eagles put Andrews on injured-reserve with a back injury last week, ending his season. There was indignity added to injury -- Reid said Andrews would not rehab his back at the Philadelphia training facility. Clearly there are some in the organization who don't think Andrews is hurt as badly as he says, and removing him from the building removes a distraction from the team.
It's interesting how teams treat injured players. Bill Parcells used to steer injured players away from hanging out with teammates. It was almost like he felt the injury bug was contagious, and he didn't want the healthy players catching anything.
It even got to the point last week that one of Andrews' friends on the team, Brian Westbrook, had to defend him by saying "he wouldn't fake something like this -- but at the same time, as his friend I'm going to support him. It's been kind of tough, because everyone thinks he's faking ...'' Reid always has spoken of Andrews as a player who could be all-pro at tackle and guard. Now it might have be for another coach.
No surprise Andy figures Kolb throwing for 350+ yards = super victory. BWest's comments about Andrews are eye opening to a degree. I knew that fans thought Andrews was bitchmade, but reading Westbrook say that means the locker room feels pretty much the same way. Hoyda. Glad he was asked to go to his shtein elsewhere.
I don't think the "everyone" means teammates, rather the public.

He still passes the look test.
I'll give Akeem Jordan credit, though, that was a seriously athletic pick. Too bad he couldn't maintain that kind of effort.
Or tackle.
Jordan is a player, he's just not a huge difference maker. Put him next to another good LB and he'll standout more
some people don't get it - linebackers are unimportant in the Eagles defensive scheme.

Chiefs - 0
17-13 Eagles.

This may have already been discussed so I apologize, but when was the last time the Chiefs visited Philadelphia? Was it 1998? Was that the only other time? I can't recall the Chiefs playing in Philadelphia in the 80's.
yeah, i believe 98 was the last time they've been to philly. 92 the eagles went to kc and again in 2000 and 2005. don't remember them being in philly in the 80's earlier. couldn't really tell you about anything prior to that.
Eagles 44
Chiefs 17
last time they were in philly was the second eagle home game of my current season tickets...the first one after the seattle debacle that basically sealed ray rhodes fate

KC and Philly never played at all in the 80s, I believe. The Eagles and Chiefs both finished 5th in their division multiple times in the 80s, and a fifth place finish only entitled you to two interconference games instead of four. The scheduling rules were pretty crazy back in the day.
it wasnt the year the raiders made the superbowl nor did they blow them out but yes gannon did...i thought he was hurt that game for some reason
I was at that Seattle game. I drank a case of Rolling Rock ponies the night before and right through the day of the game. I just remember it was about 100 degrees out that day and I threw up about 12 times.

It was the year before the Raiders went to the SB. The score was 20-10, though it wasn't that close. I remember that game fairly well and the Raiders pretty much controlled that game.

No surprise there. Vick isn't in Philly to play QB. If Kolb goes down, it's Garcia.
Westbrook inactive.
Bowe and Derrick Johnson are out for KC
Sal Pal says Vick will be on the field for 1/3 of the Eagles snaps. Wut

Eject Kolb from that lineup and I think the future looks pretty bright at the skill positions.
Yeah as long as McCoy can learn not to try and bounce every run outside, that's not a very terrible future. Just get rid of Kolb and draft someone else (Or keep McNabb).

Definitely. Although Kolb pretty much ruins the whole thing.
Dwayne Bowe is inactive for the Chiefs.
In other words, a greater percentage of their offense is sitting than the Eagles.
I'm looking foward to seeing what McCoy does with his first start. Or better yet, what Reid does with McCoy's first start.

Mo-Indeed, dude hasn't shown to be too good at holding onto the ball.

1st down-7 yard pass to Celek
2nd down-Hand off to McCoy for no gain, Vick in as a WR fake end around
3rd down-Incomplete to Jackson

Kolb sucks, right?
Its amazing how adequate he looks with real weapons on offense.
I would just LOVE it if they were able to return a punt without an illegal block in the back.

And the obligatory 1st quarter time out used by Reid.
i hate this man so much
According to the radio broadcast, players who were supposed to be on the field didn't notice the personnel swap, hence the timeout.
They go for it on 4th and 1... of course pass the ball out of the shotgun... and Kolb hits Vrabel in the helmet.
4th & 1... incomplete pass. Now THAT'S a bad coaching call.
Hah. 4th and 1 and Reid decides to go for it...and does a roll out pass with Kolb. FAIL.
Guaranteed KC gets points off this drive now.
The play the Chiefs just ran is exactly the type of play that should be run with Vick.

Looks like Kolb's well on his way to another 300 yard game.
HOF Celek for the first down.
Reggie! LOL
Game Center is kinda borked at the moment. Now I don't know what's happening before I hear the radio broadcast.
Celek.
Chuck Norris ain't got shtein on Brent Celek.
He's got the lips of a fat chick but I don't care. He joins Pimp on my mancrush list.
Kolb gets Maclin killed.
That was the first time all season that a team has entered the Chiefs red zone and not scored a touchdown.
lol, Kevin Kolb has a weak arm!
Last Eagle WR to have two 60+ yard TDs in consecutive games: Mike Quick (1985)
Trent Cole is a complete DE
Larry Johnson: 14 attempts, 21 yards, fumble

He needs 16 yards now, and if the Eagles get the ball back you'd have to think they'll be primarily concerned with running the clock down... 100 is within reach.
Jackson is one yard away from 150 yds. 100 yard day for Celek.
Kolb's standing tall with 327 yards and 2 TDs.
Maclin's first start is good, four receptions for 33 yards.
Sheldon Brown ran into a security guard pregame and jacked up his hand, it's all taped up.
Garbage time... Garcia's in.
Garcia in for garbage time (his last snaps as an Eagle?). Buckley also.
Shocking that Kolb is worth benching in garbage time, but he's deserved it.
Cut Garcia.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Garthia

But will he start when McNabb is healthy? :paranoid
The bad part is he's gone from a goat to a legitimate starting option in the view of the talking heads on TV/Radio...
I don't think we should overlook the possibility that he's now excellent trade bait. :deion
Hard to believe that as bad as Kolb has looked in the past he could start today and run the offense with such proficiency. He should buy Celek dinner all week.
I'm starting to wonder.....what if Kolb is that good? I am starting to worry he may be good enough to earn the faith, only to go all Bobby Hoying. I would have been much more comfortable if he just outright sucked.
At least he has been hitting guys in stride.
Tell that to Jeremy Maclin and his back.
What I'm wondering is how much is Kolb and how much is the revamped O-line and the Man Beast© Celek's emergence?

The Eagles might beat the Rams! I mean the Bucs! I mean the Panthers! I mean the Pats! I mean the Cardinals!
Jesus Christ man, what team have you been watching all your life? Stop believing these suckers are any good until they really prove it.
The only way this team ever proves anything will be by winning the Superbowl.
And until then, we can safely assume they never will.
Great game by Shady, Kolb, Pimp & Celek.
The OL was very good as well.
If Andy MUST throw the ball from the shotgun on 4th and 1 can he NOT roll the QB to the right to take half the field away and limit the options?
Kolb had some good passes but his receivers gave him all of those yards. Especially Pimp.
Healso had a shteinload of passed batted down and almost got 3 of his guys' heads taken off with errant passes. He played the farging Chefs. He's not a legitimate starting QB against a somewhat decent defense and I have zero confidence that he can do something with the game on the line.
The Kolb lovefest is really starting to make my stomach turn. The fact that people are calling on him to start over McNabb makes me want to puke.
the only thing i feel good about with kolb is that should mcnabb get hurt during a game, i think kolb can come in and not totally suck. let's be honest, in the preseason if someone told you that kolb would start 2 games this year, you'd mark them both down as losses and would think he'd throw 5 picks, complete less than 50% of his passes and maybe throw for 250 total yards. he's still not starter material for the eagles, or any other team but perhaps he'll make a nice career for himself mostly as a backup qb.....kind of like trent dilfer.
He's better than Romo and Jason Campbell.
they aren't starter material either.

Jackson to Jackson: Stop the nonsense
Jamaal Jackson loved DeSean Jackson's 64-yard touchdown reception during the second quarter of the Eagles' 34-14 rout of the Kansas City Chiefs.
He didn't like the head-first-dive-into-a-front-split celebration so much.
"I told him, 'Great run, but let's try to exhibit some professionalism,' " the Eagles' center said. "There's nothing wrong with a little celebration, but once you put your body at risk, that's when you want to take a step back and look at the big picture. There's nothing wrong with just handing the ball to the ref."
Jamaal thinks DeSean might heed his advice, especially because the receiving Jackson also vomitted on the sideline after his celebration.
"I've been trying to talk to these young guys," Jamaal said. "I tell them, 'Hey man, this is our jobs. It isn't some pickup game. I told him that right after he scored. After that, he was on the sideline throwing up. You run that long of a time, you need to save some of your energy. He was hurling. I might seem like the old guy out there, but my position on this team is to try to lead these guys by example."
Eagles coach Andy Reid didn't make a big deal about the celebration, saying simply that it was a good indication to him that Jackson's strained groin was feeling OK.
Quote from: Sgt PSN on September 28, 2009, 12:40:23 AM

True, but that is exactly my point. What defines a starter in the NFL? If half the NFL has garbage starting QBs, then isn't Kolb a starting QB in this league?
I think Kolb's a lot like Cassel. Last year when Cassel had weapons, he was a pretty good quarterback. Now he's got no weapons and he's horrible. Put Kolb on the Chiefs and he'd probably look like Cassel yesterday.
There are a lot of starting quarterbacks who get by on having talent around them for their entire careers, though. So while I don't think Kolb is any McNabb, I also think it's somewhat ridiculous to continue to bitch about him when he's the first quarterback in the entire history of the NFL to throw for over 300 yards in his first two starts. There are likely quite a few worse QBs starting in the NFL right now.
Jamaal just vaulted into top five favorite current Eagles.
Kolb is servicable, and suprised a few people with a couple of games that were better than anyone would have thought they'd be. Me, with the weapons this offense seems to have right now? I can't wait to see McNabb start in two weeks. No way in hell would anyone with half a brain call for Kolb to start over McNabb. Kolb was decent, but he still doesn't have half the arm strength, experiance, or overall ability that McNabb has, at least when healthy.
Once again Reid in the 2nd half decides to pass the ball and continue to pass when they have a comfortable lead. Meanwhile the just as retarded Chiefs were running the ball all day even when down! The game was so half ass backwards. Kolb did well, but man oh man, the Chiefs are BAD. They might be the worst team in the NFL right now(right there with the Skins ^-^) Kolb has proven to me so far that he can have a ok game against an okay defense in the Saints. He can do above average against a really bad defense in the Chiefs. Kolb has 2 starts and has proved NOTHING. If anything its good to see the guy with his head up and looking to have some confidence in him. We're going to need him playing his best at this point. Vick is far from contributing. We might not see anything special from him til the end of the season I am afraid.
DeSean Jackson - 3 games deep this kid is always in the endzone. i love him. no wildcat looks for him though this week. which I am fine with if he's alittle hurt, but the wildcat seems to work better when he's involved. i agree with jamaal jackson though on the celebration. we need him healthy.
McCoy - Looked down right nasty early. I was really hoping they'd give him the ball all day. Still 20 for 84 yrds and a TD ain't bad for his first start. Hell any Eagles RB near 100 yards is good. Great draft pick
Celek - This guy is Mr. Reliable and Mr. Hard-to-bring-Down! Yes, he awkward, and yes he's white. Yes he gave a horrible first down signal 2 yards shy of the 1st and yes his Eagles wing celebration after his TD was kinda whack, but those things don't matter to me. Like it or not he is turning into a star on this offense and if he keeps getting the ball thrown his way, might deserve a shot at the pro bowl(laugh). the kid makes catches and finds yards after the catch. i havn't been watching his blocking?
Gaither - Had a solid game. 7 tackles and a sack
Killa Cole - 6 tackles and a .5 sack
When they went for it on 4th and short, that was just a horrible call. 4 passes and out. Chiefs scored right after. Horrible. The other thing that drove me crazy all day, other than passing when way up was the Wildcat. Almost every time they brought Vick in, they handed the ball off. I think he attempted 2 passes out of 11 plays. Come on Reid, your not fooling anyone. Mix it the farg up or don't even put him out there! It was so predictable. You knew they were going to run the ball when in that formation. The formation is all about fooling you opponent. Another look into the mastermind that is Reid. Scary.
Good week to rest up. Looking forward to a beat down on the Bucs!

Eagles' defense was so good Chiefs stopped passing
By MARCUS HAYES
Philadelphia Daily News
hayesm@phillynews.com
AT ONE POINT, it got so bad the Chiefs just ran it.
Down by 17 points with 30 minutes to play to a team it showed no hint of being able to stop, the Chiefs chose to not pass the football. They kept the ball on the ground. This served a dual purpose.
One, it kept Matt Cassel, the team's top offseason acquisition, out of harm's way. Cassel was sacked three times and pounded about a dozen others by a voracious defense that led the Eagles to a 34-14 win.
Two, it...well, actually, there was only one logical explanation.
"If you're back there, dropping back every play, and our front four know it's a pass, it's lights out," said free safety Quintin Mikell. "You don't want to get your quarterback injured."
Carting Cassel off the field seemed inevitable if the Chiefs kept chucking it. This was nothing like the defense stung into passivity by the visiting Saints last week. That defense shouldered the blame for the 48-22 loss.
By halftime, this week's version of the Eagles' defense had those three sacks, had limited starting running back Larry Johnson to 3 yards on seven carries, had forced five punts, had allowed 75 total yards and had allowed zero third-down conversions in four such situations. (It would shut the Chiefs out on third down; 0-for-11.)
"It was good to see the defense come out and play exceptionally well," Eagles coach Andy Reid said. "They were flying around, and I thought the third-down defense was exceptional."
So, even facing eight or nine players at the line of scrimmage, the Chiefs ran, and ran, and ran in the second half.
Down by about three touchdowns most of the time.
They ran 20 times. For 71 yards.
Cassel passed it eight times, completing seven of them, for 40 yards.
New Chiefs coach Todd Haley didn't say he feared for Cassel's health, exactly.
"I think, to be the team we want to be, we are going to have to be able to run the ball even when they have too many up there," said Haley, who admitted Johnson's 3 yards of rushing offense in the first half helped spur his play-calling in the second half. "We are trying to establish an identity here."
And, perhaps, trying to convince Cassel not to change his, for safety's sake.
"Honestly, I was surprised a little bit," middle linebacker Omar Gaither said. "They ran the ball much more than I thought they would, with the score being what it was."
True, the Chiefs missed wideouts Dwayne Bowe and Quinten Lawrence but, when you need to score and when you can't stop them from scoring, you'd think, maybe...
"I don't know what the motive was behind that," said defensive end Darren Howard. "I know they were down two of their receivers, who didn't dress this week. We knew they were going to come in and run the ball, but to that extent? We were kind of taken by surprise. I've never seen that before. We were up by that much going into the second half and they don't try to throw the ball downfield?
"You want to pin your ears back and get to the quarterback. We thought, all the way until the end of the game, they would start passing the ball eventually."
They thought wrong.
I'm glad the Eagles decided to blitz yesterday. Just alittle baffled they didn't during Taints game. Ahh well, enough with trying to figure out the play callers on this team.

The Kolb lovefest is really starting to make my stomach turn. The fact that people are calling on him to start over McNabb makes me want to puke.
Until the last two weeks I thought he was a complete bust and totally wasted pick. He's had great protection which obvoiusly helps. Don't know how far his upside goes but he sures looks like great quality replacement if DMac goes down IMO. He does need more work and has to learn not to hang his receivers out to dry with some of his ball placement.
Kolb is what he is. He looked competent but shaky against New Orleans and looked good but not great against Kansas City High School for the Mentally Challenged. He's a backup. He's Billy Volek.
kolb did what he should've agianst two weak defenses. i give him credit for that but what happened when he didnt have enough time to knit a sweater after the ball was snapped again ?

Interesting stuff from Jamaal.
I got worried when he did the splits at the end of his little somersault because I thought he'd end up pulling his groin again. At least he's waiting until he's inside the end zone to celebrate now.

Couple things for ya, mus...
1. Has Pimp proven himself to ya yet? I thought I remember you saying last year wasn't a good measuring stick.
2. Mr. Hard to bring down?! lol I imagined that being said in a soccer mom voice and it's funny.
3. Please don't use the term "kid"...
1. 3 games deep into the season. djack has impressed me much and seems to be making a name for himself as a top receiver, but its still early in the season. ill believe when he stays healthy all year and stays in the endzone every week. so far so good and thank gawd for him at this point.
2. He is! The guy is either dragging linebackers or carrying DB's for extra yards. Plus he took a hell of a hit yesterday, looked alittle shook up, but got up and stayed in for the next play.
3. Your right, Shawn Andrews is a kid. Celek is a man. I will never use that term again
the more celek shines the less we will see avant.

Jury is still way out on Maclin. Have to resist the temptation to use DJack as the measuring stick. Maclin is still adjust to the speed of the game, and that's obvious. Shady is still in the same category to a degree.
there's potential for maclin. as a wideout anyway. have to give fatboy credit on drafting some real good skill players recently in celek, jackson, mccoy and maclin.
DeSean is so much fun to watch because anytime he touches the ball he has a legitimate opportunity to take it to the house. He doesn't look that fast running the ball in terms of his leg movement -- it looks somewhat effortless. It reminds me a bit of Marshall Faulk when he ran -- it looked like he was gliding on the field and that he wasn't expending much in order to blow by everyone else.
Keep that man healthy. This early bye week I thought would be problematic but with everyone banged up so early it came at the perfect time.
Finally the Eagles can say they have a player that was passed up on in Jackson. Oops...I meant we.

seriously
the guy is arguably the best player in the nfl and jamall jackson needs to shut his farging face
I also have ZERO problems with Jackson's celebrations. I love them. As long as he doesn't drop the ball like last year or cause the team a 15 yd penalty for celebration/taunting at a crucial point in an important game...I am all for it.
I love it too...although I found it funny that he went to the sidelines and puked.
Sounds like the author of that blurb tried to make it sound more ominous because I read this:
Quote"I try to talk to the young guys, to try to exhibit some professionalism," he said. "I know you want to have fun, you want to do your touchdown celebrations and whatnot, but there's a time and place - what was that, second quarter? He's a young guy. He'll learn. I was talking to him right after he did it. Interestingly enough, he was throwing up. I was like, 'That flip wasn't warranted . . . See, that's what you get!' The flip actually took more out of him than the 60-yard run."
Trying to keep it in perspective for him, but joking with him at the same time
i don't think jamaal was upset about his celebrations, its the fact that he was throwing up and doing a flying front roll into the endzone could possibly get himself injured. the team doesn't need that happening
Pimp can do whatever the hell he wants as long as he keeps getting his little ass in the end zone.
I get what Jammal is saying, and it annoys me when talentless hacks showboat all over the field, but Pimp is different.
He's ridiculously talented and honestly, it ain't showboating if you're doing it week in and week out.
As long as he doesn't hurt himself or penalize the team when it matters, I like it. He does either of those two things and I go ballistic.
he can do whatever he wants in my opinion also, i just don't want him pulling a gramatica and injuring himself.

I've never been interested in having a high tech phone. As long as I can call, text, and take pictures, it's good enough for me.
I'd much rather spend my disposable income on school, food, drinks, and poker.

Les Bowen: The bottom line: Who gives a flip how Jackson celebrates?
By Les Bowen
Philadelphia Daily News
Daily News Sports Columnist
I SAY, LET DeSean be DeSean.
As long as the Eagles' second-year wideout doesn't hurt himself, incur a crucial penalty, or inadvertently eject the ball before crossing the goal line, I don't care if he performs the balcony scene from "Romeo and Juliet" in the end zone.
I know center Jamaal Jackson was sincere when he went over to No. 10 and voiced his objections to the flip, slide and split after the 64-yard touchdown reception Sunday, but I just can't help but flash back 5 years, when Terrell Owens' post-TD "artistic statements" were just wonderful theater, as far as teammates and fans were concerned. Never saw Jamaal - or anyone else - tell T.O. to cool it. Of course, Jamaal spent the 2004 season on IR, but still.
Maybe the thinking in being concerned about this is that the celebrations are a step along the road to becoming as big a pain in the rear/distraction as T.O. If that really is the case, perhaps an intervention is warranted. (If not an outright exorcism.)
But Andy Reid, a pretty good barometer in such matters, did not seem concerned when asked about Sunday's display, either in his postgame presser or yesterday's day-after recap.
Reid, asked a question yesterday that practically begged him to praise Jamaal Jackson for upbraiding the young wideout, said only that he tells his players to "act like you've been there before." Then he allowed that if he were to say that to DeSean, the Eagles' emerging star might reply that he has indeed been there before - three times in three games.
"I don't mind a little personality," Reid concluded. "Adding a little spice to it doesn't hurt."
DeSean, by the way, said he was more careful with the flip-slide-into-split move than it must have seemed to those of us who might wind up in traction just thinking about trying it.
"It was like sliding into second base," he said last night on ESPN 950-AM's "DeSean Jackson Show." "I'm safe."
Jackson said Reid suggested he "go easy on the celebrations," but "it's really hard to take that out of my game."
QuoteAs long as the Eagles' second-year wideout doesn't hurt himself, incur a crucial penalty, or inadvertently eject the ball before crossing the goal line, I don't care
Money shot
I don't think anyone's concerned with DeSean turning into a T.O.-sized douche, rather I think everyone's concern is more about injuring himself and penalties. The NFL seems more so now than ever to be cracking down on touchdown celebrations, and giving up 15 yards in field position on the kickoff in a tight game is a steep price to pay.
I would love the NFL to back off with its attempt to put a stranglehold on things that always make the highlight reels and what fans ultimately want to see, but until that sentiment changes he needs to figure out where the line is and at least make a conscious attempt in not crossing it.
the problem I had with pimp doing the flip was that he had a groin injury and took a shot to numb the pain before the game. he landed from the flip with his legs a little awkwardly stretched and he's lucky he didn't re-injure himself. that's just plain dumb in that kind of situation.
the guy just sprinted 60 yards at 4.3 speed and everyone is worried about his groin from a baby somersault

i love how people say "as long as he doesnt get any unsportsmanlike penalties" im fine with whatever he does
as if there are people out there that would be ok with his swag even if it hurt the team

There isn't anyone who would be ok with it.
But I say that meaning Pimp has to know when to draw the line and what he can and can't do.
Pimp yourself as much as you want, but don't get stupid with it
Personally I am not a huge fan of it, but this team definitely needs a little "swagger".

thats like me saying i like donovan better when he doesnt throw worm burners
youre either for pimp swag or against it
hes arguably the best thing thats happened to this franchise since buddy was hired
I'm for it.
And I promise not to add the disclaimer any longer, just for you. :yay
i like swagger just as long as it doesn't hurt the opposing team's feelings

all the more reason for him to stop diving into empty endzones. otherwise, in true philly sports fashion, he'll tear his junk off and never play again.
i'd rather see him get a 15 yard penalty for excessive celebrations every time he scores than to ever see him dive in like that again.
I don't give two pinches of owl shtein what he does when he gets to the end zone, long as he keeps gettin' there.
According to NFLN last night Kolb is the first NFL QB to throw for over 300 yards in his first two games started...
Kolb named NFC offensive player of the week according to CSN.

was there an asterisk after that line or small print anywhere that said his first 300 yard game was against the 2nd team defense for the 4th quarter? just checking.
must of been a slow week for the NFC
Brees only threw for 172 yards against the Bills, so yeah.

HOF
lol @ POTW.
I mean, really LOL.
327 yds passing, 3 total td (2 pass, 1 rush), 0 int, 71% comp is very much worth of potw regardless of who it is.
only 2 qb's in the nfc threw for more yardage (warner, campbell) and both lost.
i don't get how you can laugh at and hate on kolb for actually playing well and getting some accolades for his play and still bash mcnabb haters even after mcnabb has a bad game.
PG, i was in the same place 2 weeks ago. I think he's proving with #1 reps in practice, that he's not garbage.

Reps with the first team probably had less to do with it than playing against horrible defenses. Pimp could make any QB look good
i will say cobb has surprised me in that hes actually completed some passes in a real nfl game and overall been not disgusting but if he plays during the giant cowboy at sd at chi stretch eagles go 0-4

probably. but kind of like the saints game, i would say that much of the teams troubles would be just as much on the defense.
all i know is that as much as i've personally hated on kolb pretty much since the day he was drafted, i'm glad to see that he played fairly well for 2 games.
It drives me nuts, more than anything. If McNabb had this kind of talent around him for his entire career, how much better would he have looked? But no, Andy finally gets his offense together just in time for him to want to replace McNabb.

that's pretty much what i've been saying since this years draft. it became very apparent after taking maclin and mccoy in the first 2 rounds that reid is loading up on skill players so that when kolb is given the keys in 2 years, this is what he'll have around him:
pimp entering his 4th year
mccoy entering his 3rd year
maclin entering his 3rd year
celek entering his 5th year
avant entering his 6th year (if he doesn't sign elsewhere)
basically, all of the offensive skill players will be in their prime for kolb to throw and hand off to.
meanwhile, mcnabb gets small, johnson, thrash, pinkston, mitchell, etc, etc for his first 4 or 5 years. farging hilarious.
So what are the odds of McNabb coming back from the rib injury and laying an egg against the ultra-zesty Tampa passing D? WIP's gotta be praying for that.

yep, the days of Torrance Small and Freddie Milons make me cry. Kolb is better than i think i thought he was, but all of this is conjecture until he plays a stud d, which might not happen at all this year. He did everything he could do to calm the masses, and did a great job. 391yds and 350yds, farging Pimp makes everyone look good
Yeah Jackson does make guys look good, but Kolb did put the ball where it needed to be. Clearly it is too early to tell what kind of QB Kolb is. How many times have we watched McNabb complete a pass to a guy that if it were in a better spot it goes for a big gain?
The thing is if this was a guy that everybody was excited about from the jump people would be creaming their farging pants about who well he performed in his first two NFL starts.

half the fanbase is praying for that....and honestly if he does bomb out against tampa the criticism wont be unwarranted
The only people hoping Donovan fargs up are iceholes who aren't real fans to begin with.
Suggesting that number equates to "half" is par for the course hyperbolic silliness, dude.
im talking about the people who will be giddy IF it happens....not people who are hoping it happens...theres a huge difference
id put the number of people hoping it happens at 3% of the fanbase....and the number that will be happy when it happens at about 50%
hyperbole is quite a popular word these days. it gets used atleast a million times a day on this board alone.
If Donovan dying in a fire guaranteed an Eagles Super Bowl Win, I'd gladly douse him with jet fuel and toss a lit flare in his general direction.

I'd put that number at 6.7, and the number that will be happy when it happens around 38.6, and the number of people who would rather not even think about it at prolly around 45.4. Those numbers are based upon a study of the Eagle fan masses by a hungover smelvinator committee of one.
