Today we conclude our weekly roundup of how various media

Philadelphia Eagles in their NFL power rankings. It’s always interesting to see how the Birds stack up from an outside perspective. But first we’ll start by revisiting mine.Bleeding Green Nation10 - Malcolm Jenkins said it best: “We ain’t sneaking in [the playoffs] Andrew Sendejo Jerseys 2019 , we kicking the motherf***ing door down!” It was a mistake to let Nick Foles and the reigning Super Bowl champions into the playoffs. (LW: 12)ESPN12 - New Year’s resolution: Make the most of their second chance. The Eagles rallied late and got a little help to break into the playoffs. The defending champs have a shot to defend their title, and they plan to make the most of it. (LW: 15)NFL.com12 - The Eagles punched their playoff ticket Sunday ... with aplomb. What part of the 24-zip win over Washington convinced you? You knew Philly was all business when, up by that very score late in the fourth quarter, Fletcher Cox tore through his assigned blocker and pancaked a poor Josh Johnson for a sack. The concern now rests with Nick Foles (who left the game with bruised ribs) getting ample rest before the wild-card matchup vs. the Bears, with no break coming against perhaps the most talented front seven in the NFC, if not the NFL. If the Eagles’ defense can play like it did Sunday at FedEx, it might not matter. Against defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz’s unit, the Redskins gained 89 yards. Total. (LW: 15)CBS Sports12 - Nick Foles has this team back in the playoffs. Can he do it again and get them into the Super Bowl? It won’t be easy, that’s for sure. (LW: 14)Yahoo! Sports12 - Doug Pederson did a great job down the stretch, after all seemed lost. On a day with so many firings, many pointed out that of the seven coaches hired in 2016, only Pederson remains. (LW: 15)Bleacher Report12 - Well, the Eagles did it. Despite a roller-coaster season of wildly inconsistent play, Philadelphia’s blowout win over the Redskins (coupled with Minnesota’s splatfest against the Bears) means the Eagles won’t become the first defending champion since the 2012 Ravens to miss the postseason the following year. The question now is whether the Eagles will be in any kind of shape to make noise in the postseason. The Eagles have peeled off five wins in six games and three victories in a row—the latter with Nick Foles in at quarterback. But in Sunday’s win, Foles spent part of the second half watching the game after taking a shot to the ribs. The injury didn’t just give fans of the team heartburn ahead of next week’s trip to Chicago. As NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported, Foles would have received a $1 million bonus had he played in 361 snaps for the Eagles this season. Thanks to that injury, he finished with 357. Oof. (LW: 16)USA Today 12 - Gotta feel for Carson Wentz as he watches another playoff push from sideline while Nick Foles is once again hailed as Philly’s savior. (LW: 14)Sporting News10 - Nick Foles is ready to navigate his team against the odds through the postseason once again, and he has experience after successfully doing so last season. (LW: 15)Pro Football Weekly12 - Will Nick Foles’ strange magic work at Soldier Field? (LW: 15)Talk of Fame Network13 - The Eagles are now 9-2 over the last two seasons with Nick Foles filling in for the injured Carson Wentz at quarterback. He posted a 5-1 record in leading the Eagles to their first Lombardi Trophy in 2017 and has won four of his five starts this season. He defeated two division champions in December Black Jason Kelce Jerseys , the Rams and Texans. He threw for 471 yards and four touchdowns in the victory over Houston. (LW: 15)Sports Illustrated9 - No explanation (LW: 11)...ANALYSISThe rankings range from as high as 9 to as low as 13. The most common ranking is 12. The average ranking is 11.5, which is up several spots from last week’s average of 14.1.The rankings show that there’s a belief the Eagles are the worst team in the playoffs. It’s up to the underdogs to prove everyone wrong once again. Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles links ...2019 Potential Cuts: Running Back - Over The CapLeSean McCoy, Bills. Cap Saved: $6.43M; Cash Saved: $6.43M; Dead Money: $2.63M. McCoy fell off a cliff this season with career lows in almost every category possible. He basically had one game all season where he looked like the McCoy of old. Given that the Bills should be turning over their roster it’s probably best for both sides to move on. McCoy will likely get a look from a playoff type team for a few million in free agency.25 NFL stars who could be cut during the 2019 offseason - USA Today22. LeSean McCoy, RB Bills ($6.4 million) — McCoy remains the Bills’ only offensive weapon but his production is in decline and he’s over 30. If it’s not time to move on just yet, we’re getting awfully close.Debunking myths about Carson Wentz - BGNMyth No. 1: “The offense just functioned much better with Nick at quarterback.” The Reality: Actually, the defense did. The Eagles averaged 22.9 points per game this year with Wentz at quarterback and 22.1 points per game with Foles at QB. The defense was another story. During the 11 games Wentz played, the defense allowed 23.3 points per game. During the seven games Foles started, the defense allowed 18.1 points per game.Bring Back Brandon? - Iggles BlitzThe real key to this situation will be trying to figure out how good Graham will be over the next couple of seasons. His numbers were down in 2018, but Graham remains a disruptive player. He’s just not a guy who is going to take over a game. Graham gets regular pressure, but he won’t pile up sacks. The Eagles will study his player tracking data. They’ll have an idea of whether he’s started to decline or is holding steady. If I’m guessing, Graham ends up elsewhere. He feels like the type of player (respected veteran, Super Bowl hero) that some other team will overpay for. As much as it would pain me to see Graham playing for another team, letting him go is probably the right move.Eagles Mailbag: Still confident Carson Wentz will return to form? - NBCSPI’ll start this by saying I think the Eagles don’t move on from Jason Peters this season. Yes, he has a big salary and he struggled to stay healthy in 2018, but I don’t think the other options are as enticing.As for moving Lane Johnson to left tackle, I suppose that’s an option, but I think it was telling that they didn’t do that for the second half of the 2017 season when Peters went down. They like Johnson at right tackle; it’s where he’s become a Pro Bowler and where he faces some of the top edge rushers in the NFL. I think there’s a very good chance they draft an offensive tackle with one of their first three picks. Bringing in a tackle in free agency is a little harder because teams aren’t normally willing to let them walk, so to get one Jason Kelce Jerseys 2019 , you have to overpay. Think Nate Solder with the Giants. It’s possible, but more cost effective to draft one.Elijah Holyfield Is The Real Deal - The Draft NetworkIs Georgia RBU? After producing the likes of Todd Gurley, Nick Chubb and Sony Michel in recent years, the Bulldogs 2018 tandem of D’Andre Swift and Elijah Holyfield were the only duo of the aforementioned names to both eclipse 1,000 yards in the same season. While we have to wait until next year for Swift to be draft-eligible, Holyfield is part of the 2019 class and its time he’s mentioned as one of the top backs in the class. A four-star recruit, Elijah is the son of former cruiserweight and heavyweight boxer Evander Holyfield. Yea, that Holyfield who handed Iron Mike Tyson consecutive losses after previously boasting a professional record of 45-1. Evander is the only boxer in history to win undisputed championships in two weight classes and the only four-time world heavyweight champion. Like Evander, Elijah is the real deal.From His Hollywood Haven, Julian Edelman Reflects on LIII MVP, His Path and Being a Perfect Patriot - FMIAIt’s late Saturday morning six days after the greatest football day of Julian Edelman’s life, and you can feel L.A. here in his West Coast residence. Through a broad window on the second floor of Edelman’s bright and art nouveau home off Sunset Boulevard, a billboard a few blocks above traffic to the south screams an ad for Sunday’s Grammy Awards. Apt. Edelman would be a Grammys presenter. It’s pretty unbelievable, Edelman being a beautiful person in Hollywood right now, on the red carpet with Drake and Lady Gaga.The 7 best things about the AAF we learned on opening night - SB NationThe AAF arrived on Saturday night and proved that we can’t exist for a week without football. Nobody had high expectations of the upstart offseason replacement for the NFL, then we watched a friggin’ game and were blown away. Here are seven things that made the AAF amazing....Social Media Information:BGN Facebook Page: Click here to like our pageBGN Twitter: Follow @BleedingGreenBGN Manager: Brandon Lee Gowton: Follow @BrandonGowtonBGN Radio Twitter: Follow @BGN_Radio
