			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On the heels of Marlin Jackson&#8217;s season/career-ending Achilles tendon tear, the Eagles couldn&#8217;t be happy to see other starting players be helped off the field and/or miss time at this week&#8217;s voluntary OTAs due to injuries.</p>
<p>The good news is that none appear to be serious.</p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 250px"><img alt="" src="http://thephillyphour.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/in_herremans_080619.jpg" title="Herremans" width="240" height="320" />
<p class="wp-caption-text">Todd Herremans visited a foot specialist for a check-up on Thursday. Everything looks OK.</p>
</div>
<p>Stewart Bradley tweaked a calf muscle on Wednesday, while LeSean &#8220;Shady&#8221; McCoy dinged his ankle. Neither appears to be anything remotely long-term, especially since both players have seven weeks until training camp.</p>
<p>Starting offensive guard Todd Herremans injured foot, which required surgey a year ago, was the most serious. However, after seeing a foot specialist today, <a href="http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/dneagles/Reid_Dr_Thinks_Herremans_Will_Be_OK.html#axzz0pqXiMULN">his prognosis seems positive.</a></p>
<p>Herremans himself took the trip to the doctor in stride. </p>
<p>&#8220;Just got back to Philly,&#8221; he tweeted after returning from the specialist in Charlotte. &#8220;All is well&#8230; except the plane smells like fart.&#8221;</p>
<p>Thanks for sharing that tidbit, Todd.</p>
<p>Herremans wasn&#8217;t the only one to alleviate fans&#8217; fears via Twitter the last two days.</p>
<p>&#8220;All is well,&#8221; Bradley tweeted on Wednesday after sustaining his injury. On Thursday, he shook off the injury enough to participate in the team&#8217;s annual playground building project.</p>
<p>&#8220;Just finished the playground build!&#8221; he tweeted. &#8220;Great except for the sunburn ha ha.&#8221;</p>

<p>Brad &#8220;Vegas Strip&#8221; Lidge and Scott Eyre will have loose particles removed from their elbows &#8212; Lidge from his right arm and Eyre from his left arm. Hopefully, the surgery will lessen any pain felt by Lidge and he can regain his old form next years.</p>
<p>Raul Ibanez will also have surgery to repair a sports hernia. He was not the same player after a mid-summer stint on the disabled list. Maybe the injury had something to do with that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;This is my fault; I need to put my players in a better position to make plays.&#8221;</p>
<p>For more than a decade, Eagles fans have been subjected to that patronizing statement from coach Andy Reid after every loss.</p>
<p>This is one week we must accept that line simply because it&#8217;s true. Sunday&#8217;s embarrassing 13-9 loss the the Raiders &#8212; a team whose only other win was against a winless Chiefs team &#8212; started with Reid the GM and ended with Reid the coach.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 463px"><img title="Andy Reid" src="http://blog.nj.com/eagles/2008/05/large_Andy%20Reid%20Grabbing.jpg" alt="Coach Andy Reid is to blame for Sundays 13-9 loss to the Raiders." width="453" height="290" />
<p class="wp-caption-text">Coach Andy Reid is to blame for Sunday&#39;s 13-9 loss to the Raiders.</p>
</div>
<p>From purely an Xs and Os standpoint, the Eagles were not ready to play. Granted, the Raiders have talent on the defensive side of the ball, but their offense is putrid.</p>
<p>Outside of Justin Fargas, Michael Bush and Zach Miller, they don&#8217;t have an offensive player who would play a prominent role on the Eagles, the Giants, the Saints or any other winning franchise. Even Fargas and Bush are pushing it.</p>
<p>Yet, the Raiders beat the Eagles.</p>
<p>The Raiders don&#8217;t have a legitimate NFL quarterback or receiver.</p>
<p>Yet, the Eagles were so bad that Raiders signal caller <a title="MMQB" href="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/peter_king/10/19/week6/2.html" target="_blank">JaMarcus Russell was one of Peter King&#8217;s offensive players of the week</a> in his Monday Morning Quarterback column.</p>
<p>On defense, the Eagles&#8217; ineptness at covering the tight end was again demonstrated when Zach Miller shaked-and-baked his way past the Axeman and the Eagles defense on the way to an 86-yard touchdown.</p>
<p>The offense couldn&#8217;t do anything because the offensive line looked like Hiroki Kuroda pitching against the Phillies line-up. Jason Peters left the game with a knee injury in the first quarter and didn&#8217;t return.</p>
<p>King Dunlap replaced Peters and the Raiders took the Santa Monica freeway to Donovan McNabb the rest of the day. The Eagles offensive line at that point had just one projected starter playing &#8212; center Jamaal Jackson. Peters was out of the game and Todd Herramans has yet to suit up this season.</p>
<p>Then, there are the Andrews brothers &#8212; Shawn and Stacey. This is where Reid went wrong. He counted on Shawn who has been bothered by back injuries and depression the last two years. We all know that Shawn is in Los Angeles right now. Stacey was coming of of ACL surgery, yet Reid signed him to a six year, $40 million contract. Stacey started the first game, but then was relegated to the second team because he couldn;t get his blocking technique down.</p>
<p>Reid the GM is responsible for the Eagles lack of depth on the line that resulted in yesterday&#8217;s loss.</p>
<p>Reid the coach was responsible for not having his team ready, and not taking advantage of the one thing that did work &#8212; the running game. Brian Westbrook rushed the ball six times for 50 yards, an eight yard-per-carry average.</p>
<p>Reid is quoted on PhiladelphiaEagles.com as saying they should have run more.</p>
<p>&#8220;Coming out, I thought we could have run a little bit more, yes,&#8221; Reid said. &#8221;I think we had 14 runs, we could have had a few more than that. But we did what we thought would help us win the game. But looking back we probably could have run the ball a little bit more.&#8221;</p>
<p>Not running the ball is purely the fault of coaching; personnel is purely the fault of the GM.</p>
<p>For the Eagles, they are both Reid. They are both why the Eagles loss to an inept, inferior organization yesterday.</p>

<p class="wp-caption-text">Starting left tackle Jason Peters should be OK after sustaining a knee injury on Sunday.</p>
</div>
<p>Since we all know coach Andy Reid is the only person in the world who is allowed to discuss injuries to his players, we&#8217;re left to take <a href="http://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/news/Story.asp?story_id=19117" target="_blank">his word on the status of four of his guys who got banged up</a> in Sunday&#8217;s humiliating 13-9 loss to the Raiders.</p>
<p>According to Philadelphiaeagles.com, Victor Abiamiri (knee sprain) and Brodrick Bunkley (rib contusion) are day-to-day and will be fine.</p>
<p>Starting left guard Jason Peters, who left with a knee injury early in the first quarter and did not return, also has a sprain and should be ready to play next Monday night in Washington. A long-term injury to Peters would have devastated the offense. King Dunlap proved himself unfit for duty on Sunday.</p>
<p>Linebacker Omar Gaither sprained an ankle and is being evaluated later in the week.</p>
<p>With the number of Eagles who went down on Sunday, the team is lucky to have no apparent season-ending injuries.</p>
