About me

Hi, I'm Zach, creator of the Weapon E blog! I currently live in Ohio, where I'm a Ph.D. student. Though I now live in Ohio, I'm originally from the Harrisburg, PA area. When I was 6 years old, I decided I was going to be a fan of the Philadelphia Eagles.

In college, I transformed from a casual fan to a rabid enthusiast of all things football, and especially, all things Eagles! Though I'm short and skinny and never played organized football in my life, I came to admire the mental aspect of the game, thanks in no small part to the late Jim Johnson, master of the famed zone blitz, and free-safety Brian Dawkins. The title of this blog should clue you in to the fact that, in true Philly Phaithful fashion, Dawkins remains my all-time favorite player!

I've created this blog to advance the discussion and provide a fresh view of the Eagles and relevant stories from around the NFL. Join me in the quest to better understand the Eagles (and, of course, get a couple Super Bowl rings)!
