| Week 11: Why the Eagles have crash-landed |

| earlier, the team that was supposed to be the reigning world champions' greatest threat to NFC superiority was coming apart at the seams. It's not just the six-win differential that separates the still-perfect Packers from the current edition of the Philadelphia Eagles, this season's recipient of the dreaded underachiever's label, but the entirely disparate methods in which the two franchises have chosen to assemble their 2011 rosters may help explain how each has been able to get to their contrasting levels of su |

| Philadelphia, PA (MySportsbook) - The Philadelphia Eagles released safety Jarrad Page on Wednesday. Page, 27, recorded 37 tackles in six games for the Eagles this season. The club filled the roster spot by promoting wide receiver Chad Hall, who had spent the entire 2011 campaign on the team's practice squad. Hall made 11 catches for 115 yards and a touchdown in eight games with Philadelphia last season. The team decided to add Hall to the roster because it is uncertain whether starting wide receiver Jeremy Macl |

| Philadelphia, PA (MySportsbook) - One day after another fourth-quarter collapse, Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid announced that quarterback Michael Vick has a couple broken ribs. Reid said that Vick suffered the injury on Philadelphia's second offensive play of this past Sunday's game against Arizona after taking a hard hit. The star quarterback played the rest of the game and there was no mention of the injury during or after the 21-17 loss. He completed just 16-of-34 passes for 128 yards and two inte |

| Philadelphia, PA (MySportsbook) - For the Philadelphia Eagles, it's the same tune. And, unfortunately, they can't find a different station. Larry Fitzgerald caught two touchdown passes as part of a record-setting performance and made an unbelievable over-the-head grab to set up Arizona's go-ahead score late in regulation, handing the Eagles another gut-wrenching loss, 21-17. Philadelphia (3-6) blew a fourth-quarter lead for the fifth time this season in a year that has become far from dreamy. "We have to fix it |

| Philadelphia, PA (MySportsbook) - Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson will reportedly miss Sunday's game against Arizona for disciplinary reasons. The Philadelphia Daily News reported Sunday morning that Jackson missed a team meeting on Saturday. Jackson, Philadelphia's top big play threat, has 29 receptions for 503 yards and leads the Eagles with 17.3 yards per catch. He is also the team's top punt returner. The fourth-year product out of California was a training camp holdout, hoping for a new co |

The Giants have thus far been able to overcome all those perceived negatives, however, in building a 6-2 record that's good for a two-game advantage atop the division heading into this weekend's |

| (MySportsbook) - It is probably fair to say that Kevin Kolb never really got a chance at replacing Donovan McNabb as the Philadelphia Eagles' next franchise quarterback. It's kind of fitting, then, that the former second-round draft pick and current Arizona Cardinal might not be able to play in his return to Philadelphia. Kolb will try to take the field this Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field for the first time since his trade to Arizona against an Eagles team that saw its season of high expectations take anothe |

Allen suffered a concussion in a loss to the Bears this past Monday night. Rookie Jaiquawn Jarrett will make his first NFL start in place of Allen. Mathis (turf toe) will be replaced by King Dunlap, who will start his first game as a guard. Defensive end Juqua Parker is questionable with a high ankle sprain. |
