Eagles News: Frank Gore opens up about his time with Philadelphia

Let’s get to Philadelphia Eagles links…

Frank Goure finally explains why he chose ponies over vultures – NBCSP
Gore spoke with The Associated Press’s Rob Maddy this week and was asked about that fateful decision, and his answer will infuriate Eagles fans who really wanted the veteran back to sign with the Birds: “Nick Foles called me, I stuck with him and he said I’m coming in. Congratulations,” he said. He called me, I can’t wait to get on the field. And then the next day he traded. And then I saw Jeremy McClain, he went to Kansas City. And then I was like, “Man.” At the time, 10 years, 11,000 yards, I was trying to win a championship . I tasted the Super Bowl with San Fran but we didn’t win, so I’m looking to go to the championship. I see Nick Foles being traded, I see McClain go to Kansas City, and they’ve already let DeSean Jackson go [to] Washington. I love the trainer, that’s my dog Chip Kelly, we’re still talking. But I felt like when I saw the pieces leave, we couldn’t win a Super Bowl there.

That’s why I went to Indy.” [BLG Note: Mandatory related reading.]

Looking at how Nick Siriani’s attack has evolved during the season – BGN
In short, I was really impressed with what Sirianni has done since week 8. I wasn’t impressed for the first seven weeks. The defenses are smart and the teams will adapt, so it will be interesting to see how the Syrian attack has evolved over the past few weeks. I asked Ryan for some final thoughts on what we could do to improve, and he said the following, “I like to think the focus of farewell week is looking for ways to incorporate more pass-through concepts from their looks. I like how they mixed in some nice quick and easy things outside of the movement and they’ve done Great job integrating screen game lately. Hope they use goodbye to focus a little more on serving Hurts with more quick options outside of running action… That’s what he did so well in Oklahoma. He’s not there as a deep runner and struggles to get past his lead and doesn’t throw in anticipation. And they need To spend the entire farewell week planning better ways to ensure DeVonta Smith gets 8-10 goals per game. Unforgivable. That off-court play was a good example.”

Fantasy Football: 5 WR/CB Matches for Goal and 5 Dodges in Week 15 – PFF
WR Deandre Carter, Washington FC vs CB Darius Sly, Philadelphia Eagles. The last team to be decimated by COVID foul is Washington, although the team’s #1 receiver Terry McLaurin is also recovering from an injury he sustained in Week 14. Carter would have recovered if McLaurin couldn’t play, but he doesn’t have the upside needed to start this one. the week. It’s less favorable when we consider Curtis Samuel’s recent return from injury as well. The Eagles, Carter’s opponent, are among the toughest teams to face. They’ve shut receivers in a great clip all season, and the unit leads the fourth-highest rolling angle for Slay’s PFF. This is a defense that awarded the fourth-lowest number of points to recipients.

Washington’s glass slippers are starting to slip away against Dallas because the football team’s strengths are no longer a strength. COVID-19 has destroyed their brand’s line of defense. Injuries destroy their skill centers. The offensive line has surpassed achievement all year, but injuries and a lack of talent will show a good defensive front. While the eagles don’t have cowboy depth there, they are close enough.

3 years after injury, Al-Nusour medical staff changes made the team head in the right direction – Inquirer
The 2018-20 Eagles couldn’t avoid them, or most injuries for that matter. But the soft tissue kind hit them and it was one of the many reasons for their regression after the 2017 championship season, but the numbers have changed. The Eagles, who have lost their third-most-adjusted games to injury in the previous three years, are on track to be one of the healthiest teams in the league this season. Through 13 games, the Eagles have had 18 players from their 53-player roster for a total of 66 games due to injury. Last year, they had 34 players in 152 games during the same time period. And the soft tissue shapes of the lower body are good too: The Eagles had just six players who missed a total of 11 games this season versus 17 who missed 43 games last season. The practice and prior restrictions the pandemic has imposed on NFL teams played a role in the high numbers a year ago. Injuries increased across the board. But this year has also presented challenges, and the main reason for the vultures’ overall health improvement may actually be to reduce training time.

Fletcher Cox’s message to the team: Everything that matters in December – PE.com
Fletcher Cox has a message for any of his teammates who aren’t familiar with what December means in the NFL. It’s in its 10th season and it’s been about the teams that have gone every where in that last full month of the regular season – the teams that jumped to the playoffs and found success after the season and the teams that failed to finish strong and didn’t make it out of their goals. So, his message is very direct and simple: Everything matters in this month. Every little thing matters. “December is very important to me,” Cox said Thursday at the Novacare complex. “I tried to assure a lot of the players in the room, to the team, how important December is. Whatever happened earlier in the season, I think people forget about it, but you go into December and you know how important it is. Especially for this team, knowing how much Its importance, you just have to keep stressing it. Just punch it in their brains and make them believe it. The veterans who’ve been around, the players who’ve been around the league know what December means. You can’t fake energy. You can’t fake intensity. Control everything, in Your emotions, just put it all in the ballpark.”

The NFL is returning to improved COVID-19 protocols for all teams; Allows easier return for asymptomatic players – Hogs Haven
A rule change that will interest Washington fans is adjustments to the requirements for players who have been vaccinated to return to their teams after testing positive for COVID-19. This may be possible as soon as the day after the player tests positive if they are asymptomatic. The problem still is that many players keep testing positive, and they won’t be cleared until they come back with a negative test.

Giants Cowboys Injury Report 2: DeMarcus Lawrence added to injury report, limited in practice – Blogging The Boys
The Dallas Cowboys are a relatively healthy soccer team right now, especially for the month of December in the NFL when the list of injuries and the IR list is usually long. The Cowboys will miss their first left streak, Tyrone Smith, on Sunday. But about the only other major contributor to the active roster fighting to play through injury is undoing Tony Pollard. Or so we thought. Now, DeMarcus Lawrence’s name has appeared on the injury report. But it looks like Tank will be fine.

Cowboys giants injured: Giants hope to get Xavier McKinney on Sunday – Big Blue View
Cornerback Adoree’ Jackson (quad) is also now on the Reserve/COVID-19 roster, along with linebacker Aaron Robinson. Defending back Stephen Parker missed training due to illness. This likely means second-year corner back Garen Williams, who is still technically in the coaching squad, could be a start on Sunday. Williams has played 48 shots in the past two weeks. JR Reed, who has safely played 56 defensive tackles this season, could be in line for extended service in the sub-packs.

Urban Meyer Launched: Potential Candidates to Replace Meyer – Big Cat Country
Doug Pederson. Pederson is the former coach of the Philadelphia Eagles and won the Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2017, and was the offensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs from 2013-2015. As a head coach, the Eagles ranked 17th in EPA/play, and 18th in EPA/play in passing game. Additionally, Pederson has experience working with young QB at Carson Wentz, but arguably most of the credit for Wentz should go to new Wentz coach and former Eagles OC Frank Reich. Pederson said he’s looking for another opportunity, and it could provide the Jaguars with the stability the franchise and Lawrence need.
