Stacy Andrews a scratch for Bears game
options
 

CHICAGO -- Eagles guard Stacy Andrews will not dress for tonight's Bears game. Andrews wasn't listed on the team's injury report coming into the game, although he has been slowed by off-season knee surgery. This will be the first game in which the Eagles' prized off-season, free agent acquisition has not dressed. Andrews hasn't played much this season. He joins his brother, Shawn, on the sidelines. Shawn is on injured reserve with a back injury and is out for the season.

Sheldon Brown, meanwhile, is active and will play in his 134th consecutive game. The Eagles cornerback hardly practiced last week because of a hamstring strain but will start against the Bears.

There are no surprises from the rest of the Eagles' inactives: RB Brian Westbrook (concussion), LB Akeem Jordan (knee), S Quintin Demps (ankle) are WR Kevin Curtis (knee) injured. RB P.J. Hill and G Mike McGlynn are healthy scratches.

Kevin Kolb will be the emergency third QB.

    How many millions will we waste on the Andrews brothers? Please do not allow them back in Philly uniforms next year. Do they have pictures of Andy Reid?

    Andrews sisters are disgrace to team sports. Jason Peters should be kept away from these pests. They will try to destroy the morale of the team if they are allowed to mingle with rest of the team.

    Julie Andrews and her sister should return to Austria to make their next music video together: "The hills are alive with the sound of music!"

    Come on why are you guys on Andrews? Its not his fault his brother has problems. He's still learning the position and has not been great but he isn't terrible or lazy or mentally challenged. Give him a break.

    BYE BYE after this year so who cares. His contract doesnt hurt our cap number next year anyway, he will be gone with his brother. Everyone hates Banner but his is great with contracts/cap room.

    Jason Peters showed ME (and I hope the other doubters) what he can really do on a football field. Even with an ankle that probably hurt like hell, he kept some very good linemen away from Mc5 tonight. I'm one of the people that had sincere, severe doubts about this guy's heart, his commitment, AND his ability. He showed up tonight ready to win a football game. I have to hope this was not a one-shot deal, as he will be very much needed again next week, and the rest of the season.
