2:53 pm WR DeSean Jackson on whether he should be more involved in the offense: "It's out of my hands. I can't call plays to myself and I can't throw the ball to myself."

2:52 pm The Eagles shortened practices the last two days and spent more time in the classroom. "It's important to give the players every opportunity, physically and mentally, to be strong," coach Andy Reid said today.

2:51 pm The Eagles had a light practice indoors today. They'll have a short walk-through practice on Friday morning and then in the afternoon, for the second straight week, they'll board a charter flight for Dallas.

2:53 pm WR DeSean Jackson on (does it matter on what?) whether he should be more involved in the offense: "It's out of my hands. I can't call plays to myself and I can't throw the ball to myself."

I like hte fact that this rookie has not shut up all week. Young players who do that tend to have their heads handed to them on gameday, because this behavior is symptomatic of having no grasp or real control over the monet at hand.

Good, they'll be overthinking on the filed, which will only slow them down.

2:51 pm The Eagles had a light practice indoors today. They'll have a short walk-through practice on Friday morning and then in the afternoon, for the second straight week, they'll board a charter flight for Dallas.

Here's to hoping that the snowstorm that is hitting the midwest today and inching upwards towards the east coast disrupts their flight plan and slows them down some more. :laugh2:

3:21 pm Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg on the possible carry-over effect of Sunday's 24-0 loss to Dallas: "The past has very little to do with the future once the game starts."

3:19 pm Coach Andy Reid on his team's attitude: "They've been upbeat. These are competitive guys. They don't like what took place last week and so they get back to business and try to right the wrong."
