Philly.com | September 02, 2010
While waiting for football games that count, it's time to empty out the mailbag: This Stewart Bradley is a savior stuff is really getting silly. If I recall correctly, the last time Bradley played in a game that counted was the NFC championship game against the Cardinals. How'd that game work out for him?

Eagles Notebook: For Eagles, speculation of Stacy Andrews' demise seems premature
Philly.com | September 01, 2010
Reality-check time on the Stacy Andrews speculation. The Eagles are obligated to pay Andrews $5 million this season, whether he is on their roster or not - a $4.1 million bonus that was due back in the spring plus a $900,000 salary guarantee, agent Rich Moran confirmed yesterday. This pretty much means he is going to be the right guard when the season opens, unless he gets hurt.

Philly.com | September 01, 2010

Phil Sheridan: Too many questions on O-line

Philly.com | September 01, 2010

For Eagles' Jamaal Jackson, it's all about regaining his form
Philly.com | August 31, 2010
