Nevermind; Starters Don’t Play

Published by Jim Vassallo at 7:37 pm under Games, Pre-season, Training Camp Edit This

Andy Reid was saying over the past week that the starters would play longer and more often in the final pre-season tune-up against the Jets.

Well, Big Red went back on his word and the starters weren’t even in there tonight.

The game, for some stupid reason, began at 6:30pm. It was right in the middle of rush hour on the Thursday of Labor Day weekend…not a good idea.

The Birds lead 13-3 over the Jets at Lincoln Financial Field at 7:30pm.

Kevin Kolb has looked sharp so far and so has running back Lorenzo Booker.

If the Eagles coaches utilize Booker, Brian Westbrook and receiver DeSean Jackson properly, then this Eagles team will be very successful.

Check back on Saturday for the updated final roster and a position by position breakdown of the roster.
