May 8th, 2002. That’s when 6’0″ (probably a little shorter) 76ers guard Allen Iverson made the now infamous quote. Fast forward 6,450 days and we’re still talking about practice with an under 6’0″ Philadelphia athlete, except in a different tone. Former practice squad player Boston Scott has been electric when given the chance this season. […]
Read more "Miles Sanders isn’t the only Eagles RB making history this season"It’s been an adjustment season for the Eagles. The 2017 Super Bowl season has proven to be a blessing and a curse for the birds. They tried their best to stick to the formula that once worked for them. It was all about the veterans back then, but something had to change. The Eagles coaching […]
Read more "Miles Sanders shined brightest when the Eagles needed him most"All seems to be going swimmingly so far for Jordan Howard’s tenure in Philadelphia.

As advertised, he’s been a physical presence on an offense that has needed a shot in […]
Read more "What Ajayi’s contract means for Jordan Howard’s future with the Eagles"With Jordan Howard being limited in practice this week, there may be a chance that the Eagles hold him out for precautionary reasons.

Read more "Miles Sanders could be the Eagles’ most important weapon against the Patriots"After an up and down start for the Philadelphia Eagles, rookie tailback Miles Sanders is finally beginning to hit his stride and could be primed for a second-half explosion just like Alvin Kamara’s in 2017.

Read more "Is Eagles RB Miles Sanders following in the footsteps of Alvin Kamara?"It’s been an unusual rookie season for Miles Sanders. The Eagles running back has flashed the highest of highs, but they’ve mostly been overshadowed by errors and teething problems. Those concerns were put to rest on Sunday, at least, for now. Sanders entered the week eight matchup against Buffalo averaging 3.5 yards per carry, ranking […]
Read more "Eagles running back Miles Sanders is beginning to hit his stride"The Eagles left Buffalo on Sunday with a huge victory against a team that only had one loss prior to the game. The 31-13 score was no fluke at all, but it was a score that few expected because of the lack of consistency the team’s passing game has shown. Behind the mess of dropped […]
Read more "‘Thunder and Lightning’ backfield provided Eagles with the perfect storm against Bills"It seems like it’s everyday that the Eagles are putting out news of yet another injured player. This time, it’s Corey Clement being sent to the IR for the second year in a row. In a corresponding move, Boston Scott was called up from the practice squad to take his place. With Darren Sproles “week-to-week” […]
Read more "Potential Running back additions who could help ease Eagles injury woes"This Sunday, the Philadelphia Eagles will face off against the New York Jets in what seems on the surface to be quite an inconsequential contest.

Read more "How the Eagles’ Ground Game can fly high against the Jets"Not only did fans demand a win from the Birds against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers but they also requested that Jordan Howard would get the ball more than Miles Sanders. The die-hards were treated to both on Thursday night. Head Coach Doug Pederson must’ve dusted off his old playbook from 2017 because the running […]
