Brian Westbrook

So…yesterday the team addressed a glaring hole in the back field of this west coast offence….they signed a real full back.

Fullback Leonard Weaver has agreed to a one-year contract with Philadelphia, giving the Eagles a much-needed blocker in the backfield.

ues to play up to its excellent level, the progression of DeSean Jackson continues and running back Brian Westbrook can stay healthy a full season, then the Eagles can easily return to the top of the NFC East. If the Eagles are able to land a top-notch wide receiver in the off-season or make some other key moves, then a return to the Superbowl and possibly a win becomes more likely.

are some 30+ million under the cap, have an aging offensive line, and all-everything running back, Brian Westbrook, seems to be getting more fragile by the year.  With the progression of the defense over the last year, it would seem that even a mediocre offense would make the Eagles immediate Super Bowl contenders.

The Philadelphia Eagles are dependent on Brian Westbrook. The Detroit Lions are dependent on Barry Sanders, oh yeah, he is retired. That might explain a few things.

      So here the Texans are-trying to figure out which way to go. If there is any hope for this season, the Texans will have to dispose of the Baltimore Ravens this weekend. The hole that they dug themselves early in this season may be insurmountable. The dedicated fans would like to think not. However, in the end, the Texans may find themselves exactly where they should be. They are a 7-9 or 8-8 team with depth.
