What is the deal with Thor? I saw in the first game he caught one pass and last night none. Is he playing or is his time being limited because of his knee scope? Surely he knows the offense and they did spend a bundle to get him.

I haven't heard anything about him being limited due to his knee clean-out. My guess is he's a known quantity and they're trying to get a handle on others who may be on the bubble for making the team. He's been on the field, just not getting the touches. My guess is, once they start putting in the non-vanilla offense, we'll see him get more opportunities (i.e., when the season starts).

Interesting article here about some 4 Tight End packages the Eagles used on Thursday. Sounds like they'll be using Casey a lot, even if they're not necessarily throwing his direction.

I love James, but I could never play on a team with Vick.

Tiki....I'm a huge Eagles fan. I'm originally from Philly and went to many games when I was a kid. In fact it was back in the late 70s when my Dad and I would go to the games. He use to make me smuggle cans of beer into the game in my socks under my big bell bottoms

I could never make sense of bell bottoms, and now it all makes sense. Thanks OwlMom.
