Sat, 20 Sep 2003 10:08:06 -0700

Bob Kent, of PhiladelphiaEagles.com, reports Philadelphia Eagles FS Clinton Hart, who is starting in place of injured FS Brian Dawkins, is looking to improve his technique and understanding of the team's defensive scheme. Dawkins is assisting Hart with tips on how to handle the free safety position. "I have 'Dawk' by my side," Hart said. "'Dawk' has really given me some input as far as in meetings, constantly reminding me of things to do and things not to do in certain situations. I'm really getting a grasp of everything."

Updating previous reports, Mark Eckel, of The Times, reports Philadelphia Eagles CB Bobby Taylor (foot) will not play against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 28, and could miss the game against the Washington Redskins on Oct. 5 as well.

Updating previous reports, Mark Eckel, of The Times, reports Philadelphia Eagles S Brian Dawkins (foot) said the Lis Franc sprain in his foot is feeling better, but there is no way he'll be able to play against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 28. In fact, Dawkins said he would likely miss the games against the Washington Redskins (Oct. 5) and Dallas Cowboys (Oct. 12) as well. As of right now, the Oct. 23 game against the New Orleans Saints is the most likely date to see his return. FS Clinton Hart will continue to start in his place.

You guys are very lucky you don't have to play against Taylor and Dawkins. Those guys and Vincent ARE their defense, and two of the best at their jobs.
