trent cole: future nfl sack leader

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I just hope he continually baits Petitgout into false starts and blatant holding in addition to decking Eli at least once.

not that i wouldnt rather this game be for first place but its going to be somewhat of a relief to be able to watch and concentrate on players like trent cole instead of nervously pacing back n forth before every single play...im really excited to see him play

this will be the first game in a long time ill actually sit down during

[Feva]

Jackson will be the shtein if we can get him to actually let go of the ball when he snaps it. 

[PhillyPhreak54]

One big thing I do like about Cole...

He's got an inside burst so he can bait the LT several times by going outside and then bust him up inside and kill the QB.

it's funny but i was thinking the exact same thing.  i'm usually so emotionally involved in the game that i don't get to truly enjoy the game, but the rest of this season is going to be very different.  my blood pressure may come back to normal afterall.

Word life, Wigga.

damn that headline is clever

[Tomahawk]

I don't think that it's technically a headline. Or clever.

[General_Failure]

Just think, if he was a good DE Spadaro would have us believe that calling the defensive line N D's Kohorts would be a good idea.

Trent Cole could be a diamond in the rough. He does have a great inside burst and he is pretty relentless.

[MURP]

"In the first half, I had the most one-on-one blocking I've seen all year," said Kearse, who now has seven sacks. "In the second half, I rarely saw one-on-one blocking."

In last week's 21-20 loss to Dallas, Cole had a strong game when he recorded two sacks. His emergence has taken some pressure off Kearse.

"I think I saw more one-on-one blocking in the first half because of Trent," Kearse said.

The 6-foot3, 260-pound Cole was relatively unheralded as a fifth-round draft choice out of the University of Cincinnati. But Kearse doesn't feel his bookend teammate will perform in anonymity too much longer.

"I'm not surprised at how Trent has played," Kearse said. "He just didn't have the opportunities, and now that he is getting the chance, he is making the most of those opportunities."

Defensive tackle Hollis Thomas went one step further in assessing Cole's development.

"Trent has come on these last few games and has turned out to be a great player," Thomas said.

Cole, who now has five sacks, earned his second consecutive multisack game. It also was the third straight game in which he has recorded a sack. Kearse, meanwhile, has enjoyed 14 multisack performances, including the postseason. His most recent multisack game was last year, when he recorded two sacks in a 15-10 win over Baltimore.

Like the 6-4, 265-pound Kearse, Cole doesn't have the bulk of many defensive ends, but both display a quick first step.

"I keep learning, taking notes, and learn as the plays unfold," Cole said. "It's all a learning process for me."

And one that appears to be accelerating as his playing time increases.

Cole needs to start the rest of the season and get alot of the growing pains out of the way and be ready to be the full-time starter next year

Exactly.  I say we treat him just like Reggie Brown... let him start now, gain valuable experience while there's really nothing on the line... and then he's ready to contribute right from the start as the Eagles reload for next year.
