C.J. Mosley had another decent preseason showing in Philadelphia. The D-lineman was credited with a late pass defense at the line, played an early screen pass perfectly for another incompletion, and chased A.J. Feeley out of the pocket and forcing the Eagles' third QB to unload a pass that was picked off by Abram Elam.
If that's how he feels for the fourth preseason game of summer, how will he feel for the opener at Miami? In a lot of ways, he said he'll feel like his friend of the previous several seasons will feel at the Dolphins' offensive controls.
Pennington left the Jets the day after Brett Favre arrived in trade from the Packers, and one of the messages he imparted was that he wasn't looking for an AFC East landing spot so he could face the Jets twice.
As it turned out, something did happen with the Dolphins, and Mosley thinks Pennington will feel just the way he did back in 2006.

"You just want to get in the game and make a play any chance you get," said Mosley, who a year earlier had those three sacks of Feeley. "I was a little nervous early, but you just kind of get used to things. Your blood flows, your heart starts pumping, and you play like you know how to play."

"I would be a bad friend if I said yeah," he said when asked if he would try to put a hurtin' on Chad Pennington. "But my job is my job and his job is his job. His job is to make us look as bad as possible. My job is to say hello to my old friend ... as much as I can."

"I can say without a shadow of a doubt that I have no feelings like that whatsoever," Chad said then. "If something happens with the Miami Dolphins, it would be because I feel good about the situation and good about the opportunity. It won't have anything to do with the New York Jets or me trying to prove a point."

"This'll be his first game at home, and he would love to beat us more than anything," Mosley said. "I know how that feels from when I got traded from Minnesota and we played them later that year.
"I'm pretty sure Chad is going to bring his 'A' game. ... He wants to beat us very, very bad. But we can't let that happen."
