Eagles injuries hopefully help us.

DT and monster Fletcher Cox seemed to have been limited in practice leading up to Cowboys game, then suffered a stinger in the game. Hopefully hes out.

DE Derek Barnett was out vs Cowboys, hopefully stays that way.

WR Desean Jackson has been nursing a sore foot but played vs Cowboys, caught 1 target for an 80- plus yard TD, summersaulted into endzone .. then left game bc of sore foot. Never change Desean.

CB Slay (darby's very expensive replacement) was on the week 16 injury report but played vs Cowboys, got an int. No Slay would be huge.

LT Jordan Mailata, who very well may have taken former first-round pick Andre Dillard's starting left tackle job, suffered a concussion when he was hit by Cowboys linebacker Jaylon Smith in the fourth quarter.

^^ video of the off ball hit by Jaylon Smith. Odd looking play by him. His actions/movements were intentional but what was the intent? to head butt the guy? I could see Jaylon busted for PEDs one day (pure fan speculation).

we knocked them out in week 17 years ago .... i doubt the org. has forgotten.

If i'm Philly, why would I play Slay and Cox in a meaningless game? I'd let them start the rehab process asap

Alex Smith says he's "right on the doorstep" of returning. He's hoping to continue to progress this week

I think Slay will play, but I doubt we see Cox. He was already dealing with a neck injury and then suffered a stinger versus Dallas, and never returned. I have a feeling he will not risk it on Sunday.

Re: Let's try this "Win and in" again. Eagles Pregame 2.0

Man, I've been reading up on the Heinicke dude. He seems like one of those players that lit it up in HS and College, but wasn't the prototypical QB that big College programs and NFL teams are looking for. All state as HS Junior; National Player of the year for Georgia as HS Senior; almost 15,000 passing yards passing with 132 TDs in 4 years of college at ODU (+22 rushing TDs); owns virtually every QB record there...He had one opportunity in 2018 to start for an injured Cam Newton in 2018, and he himself got injured during that game and went on IR. Never saw the field as a backup in the XFL...

What an opportunity for this dude. It would be Cra-Cra if he starts and leads this team to the NFC East championship.

There is a reason Heineke didn't even start in the XFL. My guess is he will come back down to earth if he has to play a game from start to finish.

I wouldn't use the XFL as much of a yardstick. They only played 5 games before suspending operations.

Not bigging up Heinicke but plenty of QB's have been journeymen etc. and still produced good games/seasons later in their career. We won't really know until he plays Sunday (assuming AS isn't good to go), but I see no reason to be down on the guy at this point.

My hope is that he, RR, and Scott Turner are all on the same page about where he is. I don't care so much that they tell us fans, but I don't want to see the AS from the SF game. And only he really knows how much he is "manning" up to be ready, and how much is true recovery.

I am sure Heinicke will throw a pick or two if he plays. He could have thrown two against Carolina but the defenders whiffed. But even with that, he seems (from the CY clip and some other short pieces) that he has more of the Brett Favre style picks, meaning the other team will get theirs but overall he won't let that stop him from going out and making plays. And just the energy he brought into the huddle seemed to be the spark the offense has needed all year long (no offense Alex)

Agreed except for the ending part. The most important thing is we now have a backup QB who is capable of moving the ball down the field with support from the team. I saw a clip of Young talking about Heinicke during the game last Sunday, Young said that it is obvious Heinicke paid attention during the practices. This statement alone makes me to feel better about Heinicke.
