Eagles Work Out Runyan; Andrews Doesn't Practice

Here’s a curious – and troubling – coincidence.

The Eagles worked out free-agent tackle Jon Runyan on Thursday, and shortly thereafter, right tackle Shawn Andrews did not practice.

Andrews missed training camp after aggravating his healing back during a conditioning sprint but recently returned to practice and was on track to start at right tackle this Sunday against Carolina.

Especially as Winston Justice would be slotted to replace him.

Peppers could have his 20 sacks by game 1.

Pep lines up on the opposite side of the line 80% of the time. And I have seen him handled by worse anyway (to be fair I've seen him make quite a few great T's look silly).

anyone remember against the eagles in 2006 when they did a quick segment to illustrate how well runyan had been shutting peppers down and he was holding on every single play

the announcers just said "whelp"

Pep is held quite a bit. Not making excuses for him but I do see it a lot.

      Hendon Hooker signed to practice squad

      Well, as far as backups go, Kyle Allen is actually a decent one.  Better at this point than Dalton probably. That being said, Hooker apparently had an atrocious game against the Texans.

      i wouldn't say that yet. I also wouldn't say he's done anything that makes me think he's particularly good. i think that's about right for compensation both ways for thielen considering the state of the vikings and Panthers.  The weirdest thing is that technically the panthers should be adding veteran salary cap right now; they have a high cost first overall qb on a rookie contract; that's the best advantage in the NFL in this day and age. It hasn't worked out because, well, the qb they drafted isn't good and they've ignored other parts of the team to try to bolster him.  so what's morgan really supposed to do? Are they tanking with a rookie qb in year three that the owner probably personally wanted drafted? Are they actually trying to win games this year with 80 career catches between their top three receivers? The defense is probably going to be terrible. What kind of jump are people actually expecting from Coker, Bryce, XL, and performance from a rookie to overcome that? It's not realistic.  At the end of the day I don't think Thielen wanted to end his career here and I don't blame him. Minnesota is going to compete this year and Carolina isn't. I also think this is to toss Bryce to the wolves and be done with him one way or another. There's no way this works. This is not a move you make if you're trying to win football games.

      If he helps them win a super bowl the individual award is irrelevant.
