Carson wentz will be the the starting quarterback for the eagles season owner this sunday. Who would have thought it. Its hard to make us more excited for an eagles season but this is the move that will do it. When the eagles gave up the farm to draft carson wentz they envisioned him to be their starter. The birds didnt imagine it would be this soon. Wentz has been named the starter for sundays opener against the browns. That was made possible with saturdays trade of sam bradford. The two questions hanging over the rookies head is he ready mentally and physically . The eagles say yes to both questions. He has a grasp of the offense and his fractured ribs are healed. Theres a ton of pressure on the rookie but hes embracing it. Kind of just is what it is. You inherit the pressure. I really just block it out much its just a game of football and im ready to go out there and play within myself, play wing gin this system and really lead these guys and the pressure and all outside just a game of football. Im just ready to attack it done my best. This kid is ready to go. We drafted him to take on the reigns and, you know, its something now that that were prepared to ton looking forward to cleveland and, you know, one day at a time with him and at the same timely weve got to be, you know, obviously smart in how we handle it. Im just really excited for my opportunity and i feel very confident that we will be successful here this year. Before the eagles decided to elevate wentz the eagles got the pulse of the locker room and heard good things about him. After all this is a move that affects everyone on this team. Wentzs teammates vow to rally around the rookie. This isnt all about carson. We got to elevate our play around him. This footballm isnt going live and die by his play. Its our turn, our play around him so he doesnt feel like he has to carry this team. This doesnt change our goals at all. I dont come to work every day to not win. I think thats, you know, the goals for everybody here is to win a championship and in no way have those plans changed. As for sam bradford hell be playing for his third team in three years but he says hes happy about it. Its another fresh start for him. He has less than a week to get up to speed on minnesotas offense. For that they say they havent decided if hell start sunday against the titans. Bradford knows he has a challenge ahead. I think conceptually there is some carryover, theres some plays that we run that are the same if not the exact same but very similar to things that ive done in the past obviously. The big part is the communication, you know, the line calls, the way we call plays in the huddle the language, you know, its all different. To baseball the phillies are out of town and that might be a good thing. They wrapped up an oh and six home stand. This afternoon they he face the marlins in miami. The phillies fall lined early common theme. Ichiro singles off eickhoff. Phils trail twozip after one. Same county in the top of the fifth, Freddy Galvis dont call him little Freddy Galvis any more. Two run homer to tie the game at two. Thats galvis 16th home run of the season. Big day for Peter Bourjos banks out three hits including this rbi single in the seventh. Phillies win six to two. They snap the six game skid. Getting back to wentz so pumped up for the eagles this season. I bet. No question about it. Thanks.

Very close to the best case scenario. Hermine is churning about 300 miles offer shore creating rough surf some beach erosion but otherwise yeah its pretty nice out there, a good amount of sunshine. Outer bands not able to make it inland. Were seeing a good amount of sunshine especially areas north and west. This is a live sky6 overlooking reading from the pagoda and seeing bright sunshine. Some high thin clouds but really pretty comfortable conditions and our high today on the warm side but with the low humidity didnt feel that bad. 86 degrees if philadelphia officially. The normal high is 82. The low 63 degrees actually 1 degree below normal. Right now 86 in philadelphia, the same in allentown and reading and wilmington. Trenton 85.

Its bring something heavy rain and some high gusty winds to parts of cape cod, nantucket reporting a peak wind gust of 58 Miles Per Hour.

Winds out of the northwest about 10 to 20 Miles Per Hour and then on wednesday, this is when we start to heat up. 91 degrees, increasing humidity. Could get a late day shower west of philadelphia. I think most areas will be rain free and that cold front will essentially fizzle out. So that means temperatures will be rising as we head through the week and the humidity levels will also be rising as we head through the week. If you are down the shore tomorrow, do be careful and yet again we have heavy surf and the high risk of rip currents. The ocean temperature 73 degrees.

On wednesday, it gets hotter. 91 degrees, lots of sunshine. Slightly more humid. Thursday is when the oppressive heat and humidity moves in. 95 degrees, the record high on thursday. 96. Friday likely a record high of 95 degrees. About a 20 percent chance of a late day thunderstorm. Then on saturday the peak of the heat. 97 degrees and then a cold front will move through. That likely will bring us some showers and thunderstorms and then as long as it keeps moving on sunday, temperatures will slide back into the 80s. 86 degrees.
