The Official Philadelphia Eagles Thread

guranteed they got booted. probably had their season tix revoked.

 

as disgusted as i am right now this fanbase went one step closer to being rid of that arrogant fat heck of a head coach.

 

phiges is the andy reid of fans.

 

Just disgusted with this team right now. I really have nothing else to say.

 

Man...you HATE Andy...lol...

 

Greg Mattison at HC and draft Landry Jones in the first and a very big step in the right direction. Vick for as much of a critic as I am, is still a viable QB and will give you at least another good year. You can sit Jones

 

one problem with anything that makes sense even if reid gets canned - we still have a weasely nerd and his boy wonder CPA turned GM making the decisions on who the coach is and the players put on this rostrer.

 

This is true

Fortunately for you guys the talent is there for a quick turnaround.

However, for you guys just like us, its imperative now to find a QB to groom and take over down the line

 

i'd have to disagree on the talent part to an extent.

- the lb's suck
- the oline sucks
- the dline is undersized and exposed by the run game too much
- the DC has no business holding that title

those things can be corrected if the right decisions are made but ............. :banghead:

 

I think one top LB would make the rest better. Mathews isnt ever going to be a world beater, but down the line he should be servisable. The DL will be better once Dixon comes back

No such thing as a complete team anymore. You guys had holes lastyear in the secondary and LB and still won the division

 

that would seem to be more of indictment of the division than anything else.

 

You add some experience to the safeties, a couple linebackers, and a larger DT that can add some run stuffing ability in the middle, and you've got yourself a defense (ON PAPER, OF COURSE).

As long as you either ditch the wide 9 or figure how the heck to stop the run with it.

 

Agreed. Chaney can hold his own in the middle IMO. Get a quality 'backer known for his pursuit and run stuffing.

I was reading some blog that said how much wiser it would have been to spend that $4,000,000 on Stephen Tulloch instead of Steve Smith. Who has been, at best, a complete disappointment.

 

I disagree. Its been that way NFL wide pretty much since they brought back the Browns and add the Texans. The overall talent pool has just gotten too diluted. Just look at the amount of UDFA's that make an immediate impact every year.

Infact I think the NFCE is the most stable. Outside of the Skins, the top 3 teams have been very close in talent level and the division usually comes down to health and who gets hot when

 

Detroit does a pretty nice job stopping the run.

 

Gil Brandt thinks the Eagles and Cowboys are going to trade DRC for Bradie James

 

I saw that too. Here's his quote:

""If the Eagles don't do my proposed deal with New England, they still need to find a way to improve defensively. Philadelphia has already proven the organization isn't afraid to deal with a division foe, so this time, the Eagles turn to Dallas for help.A deal of Rodgers-Cromartie for Bradie James helps both teams. The Eagles fill a void at linebacker. The Cowboys would get a necessary upgrade at corner and will soon have second-round pick Bruce Carter healthy and capable of stepping in for James." "
