Why Eagles fans shouldn’t panic if Eli Stowers needs more time to develop
Eagles assistant GM, Jon Ferrari, was recently on the New Heights Show with Jason and Travis Kelce to talk about some of the more misunderstood officiating calls — and about how the Michigan game clock got so messed up.

Eagles News: Jeffery Simmons says the Titans “just need to make Jalen Hurts be a quarterback”
Welcome to The Linc, the daily Philadelphia Eagles links roundup at Bleeding Green Nation!

Eagles Film Review: A very good defensive performance against the Commanders
The Eagles’ defense was very good against the Washington Commanders. It wasn’t an elite performance, and the final two drives left a slightly sour taste, but the unit held Jayden Daniels to 18 completions on 34 attempts for 164 yards and limited Washington to 4.4 yards per play. Given the number of new pieces in […]

Eagles vs. Commanders: 14 winners, 5 losers, 5 IDKs
The Philadelphia Eagles are 1-0 after beating the Washington Commanders to begin the 2026 season.

Eagles create cap space by converting Nolan Smith’s salary
The Philadelphia Eagles created some cap space in 2026 and 2027 by converting portions of Nolan Smith’s salaries over the next two years into bonuses, according to Spotrac. Gasp! What does it mean?

Eagles-Commanders Film Review: Offense did some good things but must improve
It’s easy to look at the Eagles scoring 24 points, averaging six yards per play, and conclude the offense played well in the first game of the season. Unfortunately, I don’t think it did. The Eagles generated 318 yards, but 180 of them came on four plays. They finished with only 10 first downs, punted […]

NFL Week 1 overreactions and exaggerations
Last season in Week 1 the Raiders beat the Patriots. They then went completely separate ways, the Patriots going 14-3 and to the Super Bowl, the Raiders to 3-14 and the #1 overall pick. Also that week the Vikings beat the Bears, with JJ McCarthy throwing 3 TDs. The Bears went on to win the […]

Stout (adjective): Strong, thick Stout (noun): Legendary former Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland The Eagles’ offensive line struggled against the Commanders in Week 1, and after the game, Jordan Mailata was talking to reporters and might have had a bit of a Freudian slip. “I just think we need to be more stout.

NFL Week 2 odds: Eagles open as big road favorites against Titans
The way I’d frame the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 1 win over the Washington Commanders? I’d say it’s a performance to build on. The offense as a collective clearly needs to be better. They only managed 10 first downs on Sunday … the fewest of any team in the league so far. Maybe Sean Mannion’s group […]

Eagles News: Jalen Hurts starts the season strong
Welcome to The Linc, the daily Philadelphia Eagles links roundup at Bleeding Green Nation! Jalen Hurts looking good was my biggest takeaway from the Eagles’ Week 1 win. The offense as a whole was … uneven … but QB1 made big plays to carry the team to victory. His run to pick up a first […]
Eagles vs. Commanders: The good, the bad, and the ugly
Let’s see this through midnight green glasses: The Eagles won. Jalen Hurts took snaps under center. He threw down the middle of the field.
