All day.

[DieHardPhan]

One game, but I like the young stud..

[electrickeagle]

Goog game from Graham.  Would have liked to see more pressure all around from the entire line, but they were absolutely getting handled out there in the first quarter with no holding calls.

It is what it is, but it doesn't seem this team misses Babin at all - and in the long run its better to have Graham in there to see where he is at - at this point its a win win.

[BillTheButcher]

i liked his energy. i could hear his voice on the TV

[ShakeThatMonkey]

well I certainly hope that is the case. I'm tired of the wasted 1st round picks on "serviceable" guys.

We need playmaking guys on the field

[Devo the Prince]

Guy played great tonight.

[gibsonplyer]

Thanks for catching on.  I've been saying this all friggen season.

[L.E.]

They said Free has been having a bad season.

[eaglesboy12]

He played great in the 1st quarter then never heard his name again.

Cole has been a ghost man. Maybe d-end has become one of the many needs.

Hopefully Curry can be that guy.

Babin vs free in the first game. 0 sacks, 0 tackles, 1 hurry.

But yeh, the pass rush totally disappeared later.

I think graham might be half a sack off leading the team… with 2.5

True Curry, Graham, Hunt they have a few young guys that can play. Hopefully this was a fluke year for Cole too. Man the defense has so many holes I don't even know where to begin. I hope to see one safety and corner picked relatively high and another linebacker in there too. It's bad. I like Kendricks, Demeco, Fletcher Cox, Boykin, and some of the young d-ends that's about it.

no babin had 5.5

On Graham's best game Jim Washburn gets fired.

[Eaglesdude55]

Better all around player sure, but better pass rusher remains to be seen. Gotta like what he has done with his snaps this year though.

[RastaPasta]

You get a sense of who loves the game, by seeing who is still playing when the chips are down. We're seeing who those guys are and Graham is one of them.

We're also seeing who isn't one of those guys....DRC...ahem...

[AY83Eagles]

Brandon Graham looked like the guy he was suppose to be when we drafted him!  I was very impressed with his play.

[DonCornelious]

Good for him.  He doubled his sack total for the year.  Now go do that every game.  Until then it is still JPP >= Earl Thomas > Brandon Graham > Baboon

He wasn't a reach when they drafted him......He had a serious knee injury to overcome which certainly hindered his development. No matter who the team drafts there is no way to predict injury.....Earl Thomas could have blown out his knee with the Eagles with one wrong step in mini-camp...It's just the way it goes.

[Solomon]

Graham has outplayed Babin all season long, he's the only DE to show up this year.

[Ipspots]

Graham had his best game so far and I hope he continues to play better, however, he did very little after Half time, when we needed him most!

I hope he gets better. He needs to be.

[BIGPHILLY]

I think Graham had more tackles last night than Babin did in two seasons.

[ChimpKelly]

Surprised I haven't seen more people talking about it on here. He did well.

[inhumanehuman]

He abused the Cowboys offensive-line franchise player all night long. Brandon made Doug Free look like Demetress Bell.

Every year there are players drafted before other players that work out better in the NFL. Let it go, and be glad that we didn't pick a flat out bust like Watkins. Besides, it's still early in their careers, and Graham has been held back by injuries and lack of PT.

Brandon Graham might end up being as good or better than both JPP and Earl Thomas.

[nipples]

I've been saying all year that he's been playing well, just wasn't getting enough snaps to make an impact. He finally gets his first start of the season and has the best game of his career. Washburn was a moron for not getting him more snaps to begin with.

[IHateDemCowboys]

"The Fastball" strikes!

[Rodney_Zero]

He looked fast off the edge and was relentless IMO
