At last, the preseason is here. Yeah, I know… It’s the preseason. But we are just that much closer to the regular season and we finally get to see the rookies play. Remember last year? Jon Bostic was going to be an all pro linebacker after his performance in the preseason. Well, that didn’t happen. But the preseason gives all of us that false hope that we desperately need. So here we go. On to false hope.
We contacted Todd Duvall from the Fansided site Inside the Iggles to answer our “5 Questions” about the matchup between the Bears and Eagles.
How do Eagles fans feel about DeSean Jackson not being on the team anymore?

"Some fans may feel it was justified and in that regard, relieved. But the overwhelming feeling is the Eagles will miss his deep-threat production. They hope Jeremy Maclin will do well but he’s no Jackson. They feel that Chip Kelly’s additions of Jordan Matthews and Josh Huff along with Darren Sproles will do well to fill that gap."
