Les Bowen   

Les Bowen has covered the Eagles for the Daily News since 2002. Before that, he spent nearly 13 years covering the Flyers. It took Les only a few seasons after the switch to figure out that there was no penalty box at the Linc, and that the time really wasn't his, despite what Andy Reid kept saying. Les came to Philadelphia and the Daily News from Charlotte in 1983. In the intervening years, he has pretty much lost track of NASCAR, and his accent. He, his wife Barbara, and their two sons live in Haddon Township, New Jersey.

I'M PRETTY MUCH with Donovan McNabb on this one - nothing that happens in Week 2 is likely to define a team's season, either way. An Eagles win would certainly restore the Birds to their accustomed spot among the top NFC contenders - with nearly 4 months remaining, for whatever that's worth. The giddiest of optimists - and we do have them in Philadelphia, despite everything you've heard - would start looking at Sunday's date with Pittsburgh as a Super Bowl preview.

STEWART BRADLEY, the Eagles' new middle linebacker, played every snap Sunday. The coaches' film review credited him with nine solo tackles, four assists, a sack, a tackle for a loss, and two pass breakups.

Les Bowen: Further Review: Eagles linebacker Bradley manages speedy defense
I'M PRETTY much guessing every week, but in an opener, I'm really guessing.
THERE'S A LOT better chance of Lorenzo Booker being the guy who helps fill Kevin Curtis' role than of Anquan Boldin doing it.
JUST A WEEK ago, the Eagles seemed to be sailing so smoothly into training camp, which starts this afternoon with rookies and select vets reporting to the hilltop dorms at Lehigh.
