Everybody gathered on the football field to spell out this years slogan, all in. Eagles Work Together putting in a game plan for the colts. Im eager to see the plan against the first half or second half. We are focused on the offensive line all week but the defense has a job too the biggest is andrew luck. Coach chip kelly faces the indianapolis colts. He beat luck in stanford the two times they went head to head in oregon. Tom brady and drew brees, he is always on and in that game they always have a shot. A lot of respect for coach kelly, all the inventive things in football. Andrew luck and of course nick foles, they were rivals in college before they came out in the nfl draft, luck first overall and foles in the third round to the eagles. He played well on the College Level and he has a lot of success and continues to do that in the nfl and that doesnt surprise me. Luck says that foles is the better athlete. He has the rare perspective of playing with both guys. They are similar quarterbacks and similar athletes and similar people off the field, i cant say which one is better but im glad nick is throwing to me on the field. Jeff skversky channel 6 action news. Time for ron jaworsky, the former eagle and espn you are going to be embarrassed and humiliated in this league, defenses in this league are good and youll have days like nick foles had and a half like he had against jacksonville, i say amnesia, you have to forget the last play, the last half and the last quarter and the last game. The only thing you control as a quarterback is the next play, nick is good at forgetting about bad plays and good plays because those are gone. Espn and abc are joining forces to bring you the game. Well bring you a count down to kickoff at 7 00 p. M. And it all starts at 8 00 p. M. On monday on phl 17. The phillies look to split a serieses with the pirates. The phils lost last night 63. The pirates belted out six hits. The biggest from andrew mccutchen. He rounded the bases, motored around the bases in 15 seconds. Finally another example of the good in sports. We told but devin still, they kept him on the practice squad so he would have Health Insurance coverage for his cancer stricken daughter. They are donating all proceeds from his jerseys to a local hospital and when Head Coach Sean Payton heard the story, he decided to buy 100 jerseys. Good for him. Thank you ducis.
