If Jackson leaves, expect the Eagles to draft a wide receiver or attempt to sign one in free agency. Their current corps of DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Jason Avant, and Riley Cooper is an above average group of targets, but would immediately drop to...
The Eagles already have a pretty good red zone receiver in Jeremy Maclin, and tight end Brent Celek and running back LeSean McCoy are viable receiving options close to the goal line. Still, the team will need to replace Jackson with someone better than...

Yeah, it's definitely an uphill climb
Popular concensus is: the Eagles need to get a jump-ball wide receiver to help them score more touchdowns inside the 20. Jeremy Maclin would be the Eagles' number one wideout if DeSean Jackson is gone, but winning jump balls is about the only thing...
If you do not remember Pool from that video, then maybe you will remember this one from the regular season when he was abused by New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw. Over the last few seasons, Pool has been a backup for safety Jim Leonhard,...

Riley Cooper starts on the other side because there's no Maclin. They have an answer for Riley Cooper in Seattle, his name is Brandon Browner
Limiting his playing time to the red zone will pay dividends for a team who hasn't had a fade receiver since Terrell Owens. As controversial as Owens was, the Eagles last shot at a Super Bowl was when T.O. lined up out wide. Now, Philadelphia does...
The (multi) million dollar question, however, is whether or not Philadelphia feels the same way about Plax as he feels about them. Do they “like” Burress or do they “LIKE LIKE” him? Philadelphia is definitely in need of a threat inside the red zone, as...

Riley Cooper starts on the other side because there's no Maclin. They have an answer for Riley Cooper in Seattle, his name is Brandon Browner
I was up for the challenge ... I was up for the task. I came into the league wanting to be a starter. So like I said, everyone's time comes, and you just have to make the best of your opportunity. And I don't know what the deal is this Thursday, but if I'm the guy, I'm ready to go.
Riley Cooper starts on the other side because there's no Maclin. They have an answer for Riley Cooper in Seattle, his name is Brandon Browner
I don’t know Maclin’s deal but I’m willing to step up and help this team win as much as I can ... There are so many aspects of this game I can get better at. Have I done a decent job? I’ve been decent, but I need to get better.
Maclin is listed as doubtful. His injured hamstring tightened in practice Wednesday, and Maclin hasn’t been on the field since. Riley Cooper will take his place if Maclin can’t go.
In the course of a game, there's always bullets flying
Bottled in the whole day ... But that’s cool. They want to do that, that’s fine. We’ve got plenty of playmakers in this locker room who can make plays. DeSean Jackon played outstanding. Riley Cooper came up big. Vince Young played good. Whatever a defense gives, that’s what we’ll take.
I heard it, everybody heard it ... That's our coach and he's been here a long time and he's obviously one of the best. He's not suited up. He's not out there in pads. We are, so ultimately, it's the players' responsibility.
He’s not the one out there playing. We are ... He’s not in pads. We are. Ultimately, it’s the players’ responsibility.
I was the first read ... It was just a slant from the inside. It was off coverage, and he was head up, and I just stuck him off the top and Vince put it right there.
We just knew we had to dig deep ... We knew we had to dig deep and put the ball in the end zone. Everyone contributed, and it wasn't just one big play, it wasn't just a 50-yard bomb here. We pieced that drive together in the run game and pass game.
We just dug deep and got after it ... Everyone contributed. ... It wasn’t just one big play. We pieced that drive together.
He's just got that 'it' about him ... He's just got that 'it factor,' that will to win and do whatever it takes. Is it always going to look pretty? No. But 4-1 as a starter? Man.
I think so many people hate on him just because of the amount of publicity he gets and the amount of times people hear Tebow's name ... When someone is so liked by so many, obviously they're going to have haters, too. It's not his fault.
Everybody contributed ... It was not just one player, not just one long play. We pieced that last drive together piece by piece.
I just ran a quick slant, stopped at the top, and Vince put it right on the money
It was one of those drives where everybody dug deep and found a way to push through it
It definitely feels good to have a good game
They were getting tired and we were digging deeper ... I think that was the biggest difference.
We just knew we had to dig deep and put the ball in the end zone ... I’m so proud of all of these guys.
I think he has a lot of confidence in me, and I’m glad he does ... He kept coming to me, kept putting the ball up for me to make a play and go up and get it, and that means a lot.
It wasn’t just one big play ... It wasn’t just a 50-yard bomb here. Everybody contributed. We pieced that drive together.
He's looking more confident
He’s looked great ... He looks more confident and he has some swagger and confidence about him.
