We sat down with @KevinHickey11 of @TheColtsWire for some insight and breakdown on the #Colts going into the Week 3 matchup with the #Ravens on Sunday via @Thacover2NFL
The Indianapolis Colts (1-1) traveled to Baltimore to face the Ravens (2-0) in a battle at M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday for a Week 3 matchup.
Both teams are dealing with serious injuries, and likely will be dealing with impactful weather conditions in Baltimore.
But before they take the field, we caught up with Colts Wire editor Kevin Hickey (@KevinHickey11) to get the latest scoop on Sunday’s intriguing matchup.
With the first practice of the 2023 NFL season fast approaching, we’re looking at the Best people to follow on Twitter for Philadelphia #Eagles related content ahead of training camp #FlyEaglesFly
The 2023 NFL season is quickly approaching, which means the start of training camp for all 32 teams around the league.
The NFL announced training camp reporting dates, and Philadelphia is one of seven teams with rookies and veterans all reporting on the same day.
For the Eagles, July 25 marks the spot, as the Birds will return to the NovaCare Complex for training camp across the street from their home stadium.
The team has already announced the date for this year’s open training camp practice, set for August 6 at Lincoln Financial Field.
Philadelphia will play the host for joint practices with the Browns and Colts in consecutive weeks to close out the preseason.
The Eagles have one of the biggest beats in the NFL, with local media, online platforms, and national experts all clamoring for the best team in the NFC.
With camp fast approaching, we’re looking at the best Eagles-related content on Twitter and who fans and experts should follow.
We’re going Behind Enemy Lines with the Bears Wire to preview Sunday’s matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Chicago Bears
The Eagles remain the top team in the NFC East after a 48-22 win over the New York Giants on Sunday.
Jalen Hurts returned to the scene of his worst game and led Philadelphia with 217 yards passing and the third-year quarterback also ran for 77 yards and the score.
The Birds will now turn their attention to the rebuilding Chicago Bears, who have a young star of their own at quarterback.
Justin Fields is hoping for the same jump in the potential that has Hurts among the NFL’s MVP candidates.
Before the game, we caught up with managing editor Alyssa Barbieri of Bears Wire to get the scoop on the Eagles’ Week 15 opponent.
Here are seven questions with Bears Wire:
The Philadelphia Eagles landed behind the Chiefs and ahead of the Miami Dolphins in Week 12 NFL power rankings.
The Week 12 NFL power rankings are out, and Philadelphia has a familiar face roaring up behind them entering Tuesday.
After a 17-16 win over the Colts on Sunday, Philadelphia will host Green Bay in what is expected to be a black-out celebration of the new alternate black helmets.
The Eagles are the consensus No. 2 two team this week, but it appears the Cowboys and Dolphins are making power moves.
Cowboys cover guy Trevon Diggs gets all the hype, but the Eagles have the top player in an ANYA/CS ranking of the NFL’s top cornerbacks through Ten weeks via @KDDrummondNFL
The NFC East is home to the NFL’s top-ranked cornerback, but based on some advanced metrics and analytics, that player doesn’t currently reside in the Dallas, Forth Worth metro area.
KD Drummond is a podcaster, writer, and managing editor of The Cowboys Wire, and he recently revealed a new formula that helps better evaluate NFL cornerback play.
Hoping to quantify cornerback performances better after Trevon Diggs was ridiculed for allowing chunks of yardage last season, Drummond developed a metric that rates the adjusted net yards allowed per coverage snap.
Adjust Net Yards per Attempt, or ANY/A, is an advanced metric formula that translates touchdowns and interceptions thrown into yardage equivalents and has a ridiculously good correlation to victory. What we did was translate the formula to coverage to better qualify how corners were playing on a per-coverage-snap basis.
The ANYA/CS metric = ((Passing Yards Allowed-Return Yardage) + (Passing TDs Allowed – Return TDs)*20 – (INTs)*45)) / (Coverage Snaps).
Statistics Used:
Pro Football Focus: Coverage Snaps
Pro Football Reference: Interceptions, Targets, Yards Allowed, Touchdowns Allowed, Return Yards, Return TDs
Using this formula, Philadelphia had two players land in the top 10, Darius Slay in the top 7, and James Bradberry as the No. 1 cornerback on the list through 10 weeks of action.
The Philadelphia Eagles tumbled in the Week 11 NFL Power Rankings after suffering their first loss of the season to the Washington Commanders
It wasn’t a Roman Reigns-level winning streak. Still, the Philadelphia Eagles went almost a full calendar year without suffering a regular season loss, which should be applauded.
The Birds are now 8-1 after a shocking 32-21 loss to the Commanders that saw every bad scenario take place, and yet Philadelphia was still in a position to win with under two minutes left in regulation.
Four turnovers and a lackluster performance on defense took the Eagles out of the historic 17-0 sweepstakes, but all is not lost for a team firmly in control of their own destiny.
The Week 11 NFL power rankings are out, and even after a loss, several experts have the Eagles as the top team in the league, with no ranking lower than third overall.
The Philadelphia Eagles are the top overall team in Week 10 NFL Power Rankings after the Buffalo Bills’ loss to the New York Jets
NFL power rankings don’t offer a true barometer of the hierarchy around the league, but it provides exciting banter every Tuesday morning.
After weeks of being the league’s only undefeated team and yet still trailing Buffalo and Kansas City in power ranking, Philadelphia sits alone at No. 1 overall after the Bills stunning loss to the Jets.
The Eagles pounded out a hard-fought 29-17 win over the Texans in Jalen Hurts’ Houston homecoming just four days after defeating the Steelers at home.
With Philadelphia looking ahead to the Commanders, here are your Week 10 rankings roundup.
Philadelphia Eagles nominate assistant head coach Jemal Singleton for USAA Salute To Service Award.
The Philadelphia Eagles named assistant head coach and running backs coach Jemal Singleton as the organization’s nominee for the “Salute to Service Award presented by USAA.”
The award, presented annually by USAA and the NFL, honors a league member who demonstrates an exemplary commitment to honoring and supporting the military community. USAA holds the designation of Official NFL Salute to Service Partner.
Singleton, the son of an Air Force Sergeant, followed in his father’s footsteps when he began his military career at the Air Force Academy. A three-year starter at running back for the Falcons, Singleton’s leadership led him to become one of only six players in program history to be named a team captain twice.
For the first time ever, fans can now vote for their favorite nominee, which will help determine the award’s three finalists.
To vote, fans can visit NFL.com/SaluteFanVote from now until November 30. One vote per day per fan is permitted.
Past recipients of the award include Andrew Beck (2022), Steve Cannon (2021), Dan Quinn (2020), Donnie Edwards (2019), Ben Garland (2018), Andre Roberts (2017), Dan Quinn (2016), Vincent Jackson (2015), Jared Allen (2014), John Harbaugh (2013), Charles Tillman (2012), and the late Tennessee Titans owner, K.S. “Bud” Adams, a WWII veteran (2011).
Finalists for the award are scheduled to be announced in January. The recipient will be recognized at the NFL Honors awards show, which will air during the Super Bowl festivities.
