2 minutes ago - DE John Abraham (back) and TE Justin Peelle (groin) were limited in practice on Thursday. LB Curtis Lofton (knee) and WR Brian Finneran (knee) fully participated. All four players should play Sunday against Philadelphia. Falcons RapidReports

13 minutes ago - Coach Mike Smith said Philadelphia's WRs are the best group his team will face to this point, which includes the New Orleans Saints. "And then when you throw in their leading receiver, their RB LeSean McCoy, it's going to put stress on us," Smith said. Falcons RapidReports

30 minutes ago - CB Dunta Robinson on adjusting the defense for either Eagles QB Kevin Kolb or Michael Vick: "We feel we're good enough as a defense where we can go out there and play our defense, and not make too many silly adjustments trying to stop certain guys." Falcons RapidReports

32 minutes ago - CB Dunta Robinson on Philadelphia's WRs, headlined by DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin: "Athletically, they're probably the best group we'll face so far. ... It's going to be a big test for us to go against these guys, probably the two fastest receivers in the NFL." Falcons RapidReports

34 minutes ago - Whether its QB Kevin Kolb or QB Michael Vick starting, SS William Moore said it's still difficult to gameplan for a specific QB with the offensive weapons the Eagles have. "We have to execute the calls we have and play whoever's in there," Moore said. Falcons RapidReports

37 minutes ago - SS William Moore used to play press man-to-man on his former college teammate, Eagles WR Jeremy Maclin, each day in practice at Missouri. "It's hard to stop guys like that," Moore said. "You know his speed, you have to respect his speed and what he can do." Falcons RapidReports

46 minutes ago - With SS William Moore making just his fifth NFL start, the Eagles may look to get TE Brent Celek more involved this week. "(Celek's) a vet, I've seen what he's done, and you can't base anything off of a couple of games," Moore said. Falcons RapidReports

53 minutes ago - The Falcons are holding opposing starting QBs to an average rating of 84.96 per game. "We're not too worried necessarily about QB ratings or receiving yards," FS Thomas DeCoud said. "We're mindful of getting hands on balls and getting the ball back to the offense." Falcons RapidReports

Kolb is going to be forced to throw into tight windows with pressure on 3rd and long situations. We will see a lot of outside runs and zone reads to keep Mccoy from getting banged up in the middle as well as screens.

Even though the Eagles are talented, if we can finally start scoring touchdowns and stopping leaning on Matt Bryant so much this game could be over early.

Eagles Rapid Report

55 minutes ago - Defensive coordinator Sean McDermott on late-game breakdowns: "It's important that we stay on the throttle and stay aggressive. But within that, you've got to execute and play smart football." Eagles RapidReports

Oct. 14, 2010 3:58 p.m. - WR DeSean Jackson on being patient vs. double coverage: "The biggest thing about being a big playmaker is that it's not going to happen all the time. The more you do it, the more attention people are going to have on you." Eagles RapidReports

Oct. 14, 2010 3:37 p.m. - QB Kevin Kolb on getting DeSean Jackson more involved: "Defenses have been doing a good job against him, but I've got to do a better job getting him the ball. He's a dynamic player and we have to get the ball in his hands." Eagles RapidReports

14, 2010 3:26 p.m. - QB Michael Vick said he's not especially upset to the miss game vs. his former team: "I feel like we passed that, got over that hurdle last year," he said, refering to 34-7 victory over Atlanta in which he ran for a 5-yard TD. Eagles RapidReports

Oct. 14, 2010 3:25 p.m. - FS Thomas DeCoud on containing Eagles WR DeSean Jackson: "They're going to try to get the ball into his hands one way or another. He's an explosive player, he makes plays and he's averaging over 20 yards a catch." Eagles RapidReports

Oct. 14, 2010 3:12 p.m. - QB Michael Vick on his improvement from rib injury: "I've made progress every day. Last week, I couldn't brush my hair, but now I can brush my hair. So, that's a good thing." Eagles RapidReports

Oct. 14, 2010 3:09 p.m. - QB Michael Vick isn't practicing Thursday, which makes it highly unlikely he'll play Sunday vs. his former team, Atlanta. Eagles RapidReports

Oct. 14, 2010 2:31 p.m. - Defensive coordinator Sean McDermott on key to stopping Falcons: "You've got to stop the run, because if they get those two running backs (Michael Turner and Jason Snelling) going, that opens up their passing game." Eagles RapidReports

If Mr. Moore does knock someone's head off and they are clearly dead how long do you think it would hold up the game? They could get the corpse off the field quicker than if it was a neck injury. It's not like they would need to immobilize him. A respectful moment of silence, a quick ride in the green and silver wheelbarrow, and bingo bango we're back to the tango.
