Talk radio filled with people talking about the super bowl. That was me calling in. A lot possible pleased about concerning the eagles without their starting quarterback starting running back and two key line backers they beat the colts yesterday 3610.

After two weeks of practice, chip kelly was pleased to get an opportunity to see these guys in action. The one thing you dont know about any of those guys is what are they going to be like until you get them into a game. Thats the encouraging thing. Sometimes guys stand out in practice. Thats been history and all of a sudden you get in the game and theyre not the same player and then other guys that werent so Good Standing out in practice stand out in the game.

They were prepared and they were motivated and believe me, i covered a lot of games in the preseason in week one. I did not see it acrosstheboard. I asked chip kelly about it and he said the reason is depth. We have a lot of guys competing for roster spots. You know what, it shows the preseason is also about showing up and making plays when you have a chance when you have the ball in your hands and we saw it from three Young Players that chip kelly brought in in the off season. Rookie wide receiver nelson aguilar, not only did he make the catch in a high ball from mark sanchez but then he outran the secondary to the ends zone and then eric row punching that ball out and causing the fumble as the eagles recovered and running back barnard.
