My DeSean Jackson Blog

For the first time in over a decade, the Philadelphia Eagles enter the season with a new quarterback at the helm, and sports a list flush with young talents. As usual, I have some concerns about team this year. You will be surprised that was removed from the list.

This is correct; I am not worried about Kevin Kolb. No. a. all. If you know me or have already visited the site, you know that I am a Christian apologist of the McNabb. However, I am a total believer in Kolb. Of course that will sometimes fight and make stupid mistakes. That is what makes the quarterbacks of young (and old) too if you haven't seen the Eagles.However, don't think of Kolb growing pains will cost the Eagles to the extent that any problems I listed below.(Here is hoping that you'll get all be overcome or avoid).

High school. Yes, the Eagles entered the 2010 season with an untested quarterback (only two NFL starts) and my concern is the secondary defensive. Why? Since the version 2009 of the Eagles defense was the worst I've seen since the days of Mike Mamula and high school was a large reason of why. Sheldon Brown and Asante Samuel continually fell victim to the dual move and were object of abuse in the final two contests for Dallas. The peloton (Quintin Demps, Macho Harris, Sean Jones) trying to replace Brian Dawkins at free safety offered zero support coverage (or anywhere for that matter) and severely paralyzed the work of former pro-bowler Mikell Quintin.What is worse, as a collective unit, the secondary addressed envelope as well as Bobby Taylor.Sí, I'm a little apprehensive. On the other hand, I loved moving the overrated Sheldon Brown, using three draft for improving high school and giving novice Nate Allen every opportunity to win the role starting free safety.

Health. I know, I know. You're probably thinking, Duh! Normally, do not include the such an obvious concern, but the Eagles are especially vulnerable in key positions.Middle Linebacker is one of ellos.Como witnessed in 2009, Miss Stewart Bradley at middle linebacker, would be a crushing blow. While the addition of Ernie Sims had added some much needed talent for the linebacking core, replacing Bradley in the medium still would be impossible. If Bradley falls again defence is in deep trouble.

If it is not too painful to make you think again in consecutive massacres in Dallas, may remind the McNabb trepada life in almost every abajo.Parte this was due to the moronic Reid's game plan. The other part was the result of the injury of Center Jamaal Jackson. Jackson is still recovering from this same knee injury and depth in the rest of the line is questionable at best. Serious injury to any of the starters could cost Kevin Kolb a limb or two.

The Outlook running back isn't much better. Behind LeSean McCoy, depth chart reads; "you're screwed." OK, not really but makes reading; Mike Bell (injury prone), Eldra Buckley (situational later) and j. j. Arrington (seeking a home). If McCoy cannot remain healthy, Eagles may be just out of options. This leads to my next concern...

Run the game. Will have even the Eagles game execution? LeSean McCoy is young, so there is not much time to improve, but I am not convinced yet is a back each one below. What even if McCoy is capable, Reid included consistent attack yards rushing on offense? (Story says that no).It is one thing to Reid ask a veteran 11 years to tape at 30-40 times by partido.Pedirle of a first year starter is flirting with disaster. The Eagles will absolutely have a ground attack this season to Kolb help development and bail him out a rough outing, which is bound to happen at least once. Unfortunately, I am not convinced that 1. Reid is invested in a running game and 2. That Reid will even draw it if required by the work of Kolb. (Unless something changes drastically, or Reid leaves the city, only I will copy and paste this section on an annual basis.)

Experience. Young talent brings explosivity, enthusiasm and excitement. Unfortunately, young talent also brings the inexperience. Never before in the era of the Eagles Reid introduced a season with so many youth in critical positions. It will be interesting to see how young players respond to situations of great game, especially in the offensive where Todd Herremans and Jamaal Jackson are the voices only veterans in the huddle. What is most important, that encourage young players on tough losses when veterans tested as the McNabb and Westbrook not around the team rally?

Receivers.There is little doubt that Kevin Kolb is a more accurate than Donovan McNabb, passer but even not complete accurate passes if your recipients are not in places adecuados.Yo I'm nit-picking here, but receiving Eagle, especially DeSean Jackson, immensely fought against the physical cornerbacks Dallas Cowboys last season.Jackson and Jeremy Maclin are smaller recipients who rely more on speed and agility that the brute force.Because of this, Dallas corners were able to interrupt the Eagles offensive by Jackson and Maclin bumping line.By call me crazy, remember that the Eagles will play in the NFC East physical.Dallas is the same team who had abused the Eagles last three times temporada.Secundaria NYC (injured all 2009) pass rush will be, without a doubt, bounce off year and the Redskins have improved as well.All three will be to achieve the same; Eagle bump line receivers and disturb their timing with Kolb to allow the defensive line for pressed to you errores.Una time more, is not the most critical concern, but that Kolb survive in the NFC East he will need their receivers to reach places suitable at the right time.

Pass peak .to what feels like the millionth time, Eagles are convinced, an acquisition of preseason (project/trade/free agency) is the solution in the defensive end opposite position of Trent Cole.Me Love Brandon Graham and difficult don't believe is the real deal, but I have seen this Act antes.Jerome never Pan McDougle, Victor Abiamiri cannot get healthy, Darren Howard and Jevon Kearse were both disappointments, and after only seven sacks in two years, Chris Clemons has gone. forgiveness by not declaring Graham Savior of far left yet.

Football starts exactly three weeks from today. More to come!
