"Sliding. Getting down," Vick said, interrupting a question about how he might avoid missing valuable time with injuries. "I've made my mind up. There's going to be times when I can't get the extra yards. I gotta get down. I get too... Read More |

Asked after the Eagles most recent loss to the Seattle Seahawks about his play, quarterback Vince Young though he played okay, he just needs to take care of the ball. What? Young threw 4 picks on the losing end of a blowout and he thinks he played okay? Wrong answer.

Sunday's Eagles loss to the Patriots has fans hot...so hot that a "Fire Andy" chant filled the air of the stadium during the game.
Two home wins and eight home losses in the past year. The Eagles are 4 - 7... and will most likely not be in any kind of playoff hunt this year.
Who's the fall guy? Andy Reid? Juan Castillo? A short week and a Thursday night road game in Seattle won't heal these wounds. Can it get any worse?
