Embed from Getty Images Who doesn’t love a good quarterback legacy debate? Following a 2015 season that saw passing numbers rise to an all-time high – and a year capped by Peyton Manning winning his second Super Bowl title and then metaphorically sailing off into the sunset, it seems like a good time to rank my top 100 quarterbacks to ever play the game. What I Looked At to…
Embed from Getty Images When the Philadelphia Eagles sent Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso to the Miami Dolphins, it was more than just a salary dump and moving on from an oft-injured ex-Oregon player of Chip Kelly’s. It was general Howie Roseman’s way of moving the Eagles from the 13th overall selection in the first round to the Dolphins’ eighth pick – a move more necessary considering Roseman says there…

Embed from Getty Images About exactly one year after Chip Kelly went on a spending spree to make the Philadelphia Eagles’ 53-man roster exactly what he wanted it to be, Howie Roseman is doing what he can to eliminate any evidence of the Kelly era. Two of Kelly’s most notable signings – $40 million running back DeMarco Murray and $63 million cornerback Byron Maxwell – are gone, each just…
Embed from Getty Images You’re a new NFL general manager. You’re starting a team from scratch and can pick one quarterback to build your franchise around. Ignoring existing contracts, who do you want? Do you want a 26-year-old Cam Newton, a 26-year-old Andrew Luck, or a 27-year-old Russell Wilson? Do you want to bet on at least six or seven more years from a 32-year-old Aaron Rodgers? Or do…
Embed from Getty Images During the fourth quarter of the Denver-Carolina Super Bowl, Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch made his announcement regarding his status for the 2016 season.

Per Adam Schefter, Ertz and the Eagles agreed to a new five-year deal that keeps the tight end around through the…
Embed from Getty Images The Philadelphia Eagles have named Doug Pederson as their new head coach, according to a report from The Philadelphia Eagles’ Daily News’ Les Bowen. It’s a surprise move from the organization, and perhaps it’s owner Jeffrey Lurie’s attempt to bring in a low-profile coach after three years with Chip Kelly. Pederson’s ties to Philly perhaps made him the most comfortable choice for Lurie and general…
