Here Today... Gone To Hell!

 ;D I think theyll come back better than ever because there is a better vibe and everyone is getting along.      GO EAGLES!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think that the TO thing was as much of a factor as the media made it to be...McNabb was hurtin all year...if he can stay healthy and play consistantly then they will definately improve IMO

look what they did after they suspended him; no running game and no receivers=no offense :hihi:

Eh the Eagles are destined to slump for a few years.  They were so close for a while, but they're going downhill.  I say it'll be a while for them to rebuild with a great team.  As much as I like McNabb, I dislike him also.  I'm 50/50 with him.  He can be great, but it seems like he doesn't give 100% sometimes.  He made some very bad moves during the last few playoff games from the past seasons.

I respectfully disagree 100% on the mcNabb dissing.  The guy is a winner.  He's actually very gutsy.  If you want to ding him on any one thing in particular, it's that he's not the most accurate downfield passer.  I'd say he's average to slightly above average with downfield accuracy.  The west coast offense tends to skew completion % upwards with easy dunks and dinks.  Also, the guy is not a Randall Cunningham who choked under pressure.  His playoff game record is fantastic...just go back to the "4th down and 26" play vs. the Packers.  The guy has guts.  He's been playing very hurt with a major injury.  If he is healthy, the Eagles offense will be just fine.  The Eagles will live and die with their defense this season.
 :peace:

Eagles aren't going anywhere this year. That division is too strong this year for mediocrity to prevail. The Skins will most likely win it. If not, the Giants. Then you have Dallas right behind them in the hunt.

The Eagles will NOT make the playoffs this year. You heard it here first, unless someone else already said it. :hihi:

the eagles will bounce back strong this year. they're not going to the super bowl, but a playoff birth is very possible.

the first half of their schedule is easy, second half is insanely difficult. they should rack up some wins over the first 9 games,  then they will have all the confidence back as being an elite team.

they're in the toughest division in the league, but they have BY FAR the best qb in the division (and i'm not even a mcnabb fan).

They can have the best fucking QB in the NFL but if they got noone open, noone that can catch, and no running game to take pressure of the best QB in the division/NFL, their still gonna suck :hihi:

The Giants, Redskins, and Comgirls all got better thru experienced NFL players......

The Eagles went thru the draft..... ???

Return with a bang?? -- No.

Return and be OK?? -- Yeah.

Being a diehard Eagle fan here in Philly (I bleed Eagle green) I will vouch for TO. He made that 2004 season. We even had a song for the guy and yes, he is THAT GOOD. The poster was right Mcnabb - TO = No offense.

I'm not trying to bash Mcnabb, he does have guts, and is still one of the top QB's in the league. However he has his faults. Mostly as a passer, both downfield accuracy and on short throws he throws at their feet ALOT!!

They should make the playoffs, maybe make a run, but don't look for them walking all over everyone else like they did before. I think they made a huge mistake in not signing Lavar Arrington and letting him go to the Giants!??

As for the Skins being the team to beat, nahhh, it's the Cowboys. Believe me, TO is THAT good.


Ahhhh, football season... the greatest time of year. Let the trash talking begin.

Hey, a Eagle fan with a touch of reality ;D

but I think the Eagle's will finish last in the divison :o because of the strength of the division

Thanks, I like to think of myself as pretty rational.. until gametime.

Oh it'll be a tough division, and they could finish last, and could finish first. It's gonna be a crapshoot in the NFC East. Tough teams though.

Worse. Dallas Cowboys will win the division. Parcells has built a great defense, and the offense will be better with TO.

the eagles made it to 3 nfc champ games without TO. made it to the SB without him (TO was injured).

they were 6-10 last year and were getting blown out at the end of the season. they will definitely improve this year. they still have a great core group of players. and i like the additions on D.

i think it's much more likely the skins take a step back this year. they won alot of close games last year and their offense is limited with brunell.

It's doubtful they'll make the playoffs; most teams have a 4-5 year window and theirs past them buy; the only weapon they have on offense is McNabb and the midget running back and he's been fragile and their defense took 2 steps back last year

not that it really matters but the Football yearbook i just bought predicts them to go 7-9 and be 3rd behind WSH and DAL...also they predict them to miss the post season :-\

hiow the hell are you gonna follow a book?....look at the bengals last year...i bet your lil book said they would go like 1 and 15 or somethin...noone knows whats gonna happen

relax....first ff I'm relatively new to football and secondly i was just saying what the book said in regards to the Eagles performance this year...which was the point of the thread...nobody can predict how teams will do.  not even you Mr Madden :P

im not yelling...im debating...you need to relax...if your new to football expect alot of yelling/debating...but its all in good fun :beer: but if your gonna get into it...get into it...ya wont regret it...c'mon now..how can ya beat sitting down on a sunday watching at least 4 games and gettin drunk as hell...CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha...yeah i started following last year...it is good fun...i never realized how exciting the game was...but unfortunately i prolly still can't name every team in the league :-[ and i bought the mag to kinda get familiar to the league and teams and somewhat projected outcomes...

man there are so many things to take in at once :confused: hopefully by mid season or the playoffs I'll have more of a clue :peace:

I think the Eagles will be lucky to win 7 games this year....personally, I think McNabb may be a little overrated, what is he,1-3 or 1-4 in NFC championship games and the Eagles were favored in all of them :hihi:

I think they will have a problem sustaining long drives as their running game has been non-existant which is esential in controlling Timoe of Possession and they don't really have a quick strike offense

haha...yeah i started following last year...it is good fun...i never realized how exciting the game was...but unfortunately i prolly still can't name every team in the league :-[ and i bought the mag to kinda get familiar to the league and teams and somewhat projected outcomes...

dude...i started following about 4 years ago and still cant name all the teams...nevermind the teams, i can name about 3/4 of the eagles!!! so relax and take it in as it goes along not so much at once or youll be lost.

I try ;D I can name about 1/3 of the starters for my team...the pats :nervous:

yeah I'm working on the teams and who belongs to what conference...and what teams suck and which ones are good..

I know Peyton Manning sucks under pressure :rofl: ;)

anyway with the Skins and the Cowboys in the same division then that don't look to good...the Eagles 2nd half is gonna be tough but the first 1/2 is relatively easy...if they can roll through the first half and get 5 or 6 wins then they might get alot of confidence to get them some big 2nd half wins...and philly fans can alway hope that TO causes strife with the Cowboys...that will help their cause for sure :hihi:

ya NEVER know whats gonna happen...look at the colts last year, and look what happened..anything can happen, but dont concentrate on who sucked last year or the years before cuz teams like the bengals will come out of their shell and whoop some ass...so just follow your team for now until pre-season then look at the others...

yeah...also though if tiki barber and Eli Manning play huge then you gotta worry 'bout them too...

I know preseason was devastating for the pats last year....so many injuries...hopefully they can stay healthy this year..specially Harrison cuz their backfeild sucked last year without him...also the loss of Vinatieri is gonna hurt :'( and they need a good cornerback too :-\

yea...every team has a peyton and harrison...well the eagles were like that with mcnabb and t.o...now its brown...but like rothlisfaggot to hines ward...uhhh...i dont kno just look at each team and youll see their all strong it all has to do with how their feeling and if everyone is healthy.

Eagles will find a way to squeeze out 9 or 10 wins. That may not be enough. That division is loaded.  How can you look at the Giants and not put them in the playoffs? Dallas? They can either dominate or fall flat. Skins? This may be the biggest bust of the year right here. Brunell takes one hit and Campbell has to lead them? Shaky, very shaky

I think Redskins fans are in for a big let down.
