Capturing moments. Trying to do better. He/Him. Taiko in the FGC.
The Eagles had two spots Saturday where they could've gone back to Jake Elliott for the kick and Nick Sirianni chose not to.

They won and clinched the NFC East, but they showed that their confidence in their kicker is shaken.

That's a problem.

Jake Elliott is struggling, and the Eagles' confidence in him might be shaken
The Eagles beat the Commanders on Saturday and are on their way to the playoffs, but maybe not without having shown lost faith in their veteran kicker.

"No one could've seen this coming!" said Washington fans, the only ones who couldn't see this coming.

The arguments surrounding Jalen Hurts as an elite QB are never-ending and ever-shifting.

The Eagles' slide brought them back in force, with many ready to jump on him.

Then he responded big time, like he always does.

Heavy is the crown.

Brandon Graham is moving quicker.

Part of it's fully shaking off the retirement rust.

The other part is adjusting to the interior D-line.

"You gotta make your move faster," he said after making 2 sacks against the Raiders.

Old man's still got it.

Sunday at the Linc went exactly how it should've, and for the Eagles and everyone watching who just needed an easy one, that's a major breather – if only for a week.

The Flyers hung around with the NHL's best this week, and that does mean something.

But the wins were right there for them, and instead they got burned.

They're young, they're learning, but the thing is, it can be painful sometimes.

The Flyers are getting better.

They can skate with the league's elite and battle them beat for beat, but it's a matter of figuring out that next push now...

And not flubbing on the puck in your own zone while skating back toward your own net...

The Flyers are tougher to shake away, but still need to learn how to make that next push
The Flyers matched another NHL juggernaut in Vegas nearly beat for beat. They just need to figure out that next push, plus make sure to take better care of the puck.

A couple of Flyers fans were holding up these signs in warmups on the Vegas side.

They're not thrilled to see Carter Hart in an NHL uniform again, and the kind of message that sends.

But they do hope donations and awareness toward WOAR is their way to at least help.
December 12, 2025 at 12:22 AM
The Flyers lost, but still chased after the NHL-best Avs on Sunday.

They have Vegas tonight. What if they catch them?

"We've shown we can compete with the best teams," said Konecny. "So why not start believing that we should be right there with them?"

The Eagles plummeted into a third straight loss on Monday Night Football out west.

Jalen Hurts threw a game-sealing interception.

This was Week 15 at Seattle in 2023, and now it's Week 14 in 2025 at LA.

It's happening again.

Whatever extra Nick Sirianni brought to planning, and whatever boost a giant inflatable Easter Bunny in the middle of the room offered, that's out the window.

Saquon Barkley and the Eagles still think they can fix the offense.

But it's still easier said than done.

"Practice can be great, gameplan can be great, [but] you gotta go out there on Monday and do it. That's where we're at."

The Flyers are different this season.

They haven't let the bad pile up and snowball like they used to.

If they fall, they get right back up.

They're learning. They're growing. They're getting better.

Rick Tocchet stacked the Flyers' power play with all his offensive heavy hitters, and they jumped on the Sabres for a bounce-back 5-2 win.

The Flyers haven't lost consecutive reg. games since the start of November.

They stumble, then get right back up.

No Tyson Foerster for the next 2-3 months hurts, but the Flyers have to make do now.

They're in next man up mode, and Rick Tocchet's challenge to them is to 'give themselves 5 percent better.'

The Eagles stood in the locker room staring down the same offensive problems they've been struggling through all season.

They couldn't get anywhere against the Bears on Friday, and they're 13 weeks into the season now.

It's too late to fix the offense.

It's how you thought it was gonna go.

The Bears have their statement win.

The Eagles dropped their second straight in absolutely infuriating fashion, and now they're in 2023 implosion mode.

This is how the Eagles continued to spiral:

The Eagles imploded yesterday, for a lot of reasons.

But one of them was the run game. It didn't just disappear again, it hit a new low.

And it left Saquon Barkley at a loss.

"Didn't play even close to good, to be honest," he said.

Saquon Barkley, Eagles' run game struggles hit new low in Cowboys loss

The offense was moving, A.J. Brown was involved, the defense was dominating the turnover battle...

And then the Eagles just tossed all of that and lost.

That was embarrassing.

Last night, Flyers-Penguins felt like Flyers-Penguins again.

Better yet, when frustrations grew and tensions brewed, the Flyers battled through it together and won.

That's promise. That's progress.

Brandon Graham is back.

He had the perfect ending to his career, but the itch to play is still there, along with the belief that he can still help – and the Eagles do need help.

Who knows how it goes. But at the least, BG in the locker room is a boost.

Sean Couturier said he doesn't struggle to put his socks on anymore. All those back issues are behind him now.

With his skates on, he looked like the shutdown, two-way center of old Monday night.

And maybe he can be something better.

He laughed.
