Eagles Receiver Problems I Don’t Think So
The Eagles open the 2008 - 2009 season with a great deal of talk about the abilities of their wide receivers. Well I think we can all breath a sigh of relief. Donavan McNabb connected with DeSean Jackson, Greg Lewis, Hank Baskett and Jason Avant. That’s all 4 starting receivers. To top it off they all had receptions of thirty yards or more! So yes, regardless of what people say, the Eagles receivers have the ability to make plays. Just ask the St Louis Rams. 
Special Teams also looked great! DeSean Jackson who started as a receiver and punt returner had a 60 yard punt return. It looked like he really wanted to take one to the house which is great! There were a few time when he was moving backwards rather than forwards, but no really loss of yardage. I’m sure he will be a threat as the season goes on.
Donavan McNabb made history by becoming the NFL’s top rated quaterback for have the best pass to interception ratio.
Other points, the Eagles Defense had 3 Sacks for a total of 28 yards. After a really bad pass interference call on on Mikell, Sheldon Brown put a great hit on St. Louis’ Jackson. Those plays were followed up by the Eagles D Sacking Bulger!
I’d have to say the season at this point looks pretty good. Now I need to go cheer for the Browns to beat up on Dallas.
Now watch the awsome hit by Sheldon Brown on Steven Jackson!
