What We're Watching: Eagles-Jaguars
Les Bowen, Daily News Staff Writer
Five things to watch tonight when the Eagles open their preseason against Jacksonville:
1. Will Jim Devlin show up in his McNabb Redskins jersey? And how long before he gets tased if he does?
2. New era, Kevin Kolb, blah, blah, blah. Preseason really isn’t going to tell us much there. But it will give talk radio a viable weekend topic.
3. Nate Allen, rookie starting free safety. Don’t want him looking confused or lost.
4. Brandon Graham: Can the world’s most exuberant first-round pick shake hands or at least fistbump everyone at the Linc? And can he maeuver around tackles who don’t work for the Birds?
5. Chad Hall returning punts: This is how the little lieutenant makes the team. He needs to look very, very, good.
I want to see how the offense does because they are playing the entire 1st quater and they should score alot of points. I cant wait to see Nate Allen and Graham together and if Chad Hall wants to make the team, he better catch everything that goes his way and have some very good punt return yardage. Devlin better not show up with that jersey either. He needs to wear that Red Kolb jersey he said he bought.— briandawkins20
Thank you for the "new era, Kevin Kolb, blah, blah, blah." Best Kolb writeup I've seen.— tacklinjoe- first preseason game....it will be sloppy and look bad.....but that is why they play it....it is only a acrimmage so they can work out the kinks....and the owners can collect fees......— nuggett
- I'm gonna be watching the linebackers, I want to see if Bradley is getting to full strength and I want to see if the stories about Sims being a real heavy hitter with great speed are the real thing.— CoolRunnings
- Can Brandon Graham maeuver through spell check?— moraviacats
- I'll be watching the Phillies.... Just sayin.— Jimmy2times
Comment removed.- Comment removed.
- What about the golden toe of David "Mr. Automatic" Akers? Is he seeing action at all?— krh66
- I'm worried that when the Eagles make the superbowl, Stacy Andrews will give his brother a ticket. Can we stop that from happening?— dragoon6
- Thank you, Briandawkins20 for re-stating everything in the article to make it your own thoughts. Lol btw Dawkins is gone. Let's move on.— KannonWithaK
- Les Bowen: "blah, blah, blah." What a waste...— dawk2020
- Looking to see in AR & MM have an inkling of a running game between the tackles. Running the ball will help starting O-line gel. Can Reid actually run a trap, draw or a counter--or will Kolb be stuck with same-old, same-old, slap-happy, pass crazy offensive playcalls?— Smashmouth
- You got paid to print this elementary garbage? How does it feel to get worked over like UDFA every day by the 1st round talents of Sheil and Moving the Chains? And there's two of you bozo's....— Bleue
- The same slap-happy, pass crazy offensive playcalls that had the Eagles scoring the most points in a season in franchise history? Those? Because I'm not finding any others laying around.
