Eagles getting read yeah read yey to face one of the best teams in the nfl. And coach kelly believes in sam bradford. When bradford struggles so do the eagles. And a couple of weeks ago bradford was healthy and started playing well. And against the cardinals looking for the first threegame win streak of the season. And throwing just one interception in the last games and if he keeps it up he probably will look for a longterm contract from the birds. The question is does he want to stay . I do like it here. It is obviously a lot different than anywhere i have been before. But i really do enjoy it i will think of that in the offseason but i am not worried what will happen she or four months down the line. We have a big game against arizona this week and thats all i am really focused on. Injury updates,
Jordan Matthews<\/a> limited in practice today with a back issue. Cornerback
Byron Maxwell<\/a> did not practice at all, he has an ankle injury. Telling you all week if the eagles win out they make the playoffs but chip not focusing in on that. It is not three games, the task at hand is yesterday was really having a good tuesday and today is really having a good wednesday and preparing for one of the top teams in the whole nfl in terms of how well arizona is playing. This is a weekly thing. We have so bring it this week like last week and the week before. We cant let down. And everyone knows that. The sixers havent tasted victory in about a month. They have not won on the road all season. Story spoil the suspense, that streak does not end in atlanta tonight. Confession, the empire strike backs. And first quarter, holmes all over horford. The sixers down by 9 after one. The hawks dominate the rest of the way. And the sixers lose 126106 falling to 126 on the season. Still ahead, we hear from one of the flyers promising young stars.
