"It must just be the uninformed dolts in the national media who haven’t bothered to look at what’s going on with the Eagles this year. All they see is that Andy Reid made the playoffs last year and they love kissing his big fat ass. I, on the other hand, have been watching the horror show unfolding this entire off-season up until the eve of the start of the regular season. The Eagles have been affected by death, injuries, free agent defections, bad personnel choices, stupidity and arrogance. I’m just waiting for the locusts. I don’t think the Eagles will beat the Panthers in week 1. Here’s why:....."

Hmmmm...don't know what to say to that. It's odd because it seems like a Homer Panther fan when in fact it is a bitter Eagles fan. And what do they have to be bitter about 5 NFC Championships in 10 years is pretty nice, they are always competitive. Oh well I thought it was a good analysis of both teams' strengths and weaknesses and as I've been saying all day if we DONT get pressure on McNabb with their oline situation it will be VERY disappointing.

He has legitimate concerns but I hate listening to bitching and whining, it gets in the way, the team is not as bad as he says.

And Andy Reid is a great coach, his teams are great in the playoffs and after byes.

it's not as good as everyone else thinks either.

this team is not as good as the team they had last year and last year it was rough for them. they struggled all year up until playoff time, just like the cards.

their oline is in rough shape.

westy is already beat up.

they lost a ton on their defense in leadership and talent over the offseason and they didn't do much to rebuild it.

yeah nobody is paying attention to that at all, that situation could implode but they are not doomed by any means. Good coaching can fix plenty of ills.

I can't stand fans that give up like that, "waiting for the locusts". Opinions are fine but i don't see what's so hard about having a little hope.

Damn....

The real problem for the Eagles offense and one of the main reasons why I don’t see them winning this game is their offensive line. RT Shawn Andrews is busy “Getting his Michael Phelps on” while dealing with a back injury and that fact that his friggin insane - so he won’t be playing this week. That means the Winston Justice starts at RT. That’s the same Winston Justice who has one career start in which he gave up six sacks. Todd Herramens is out with a broken foot; so backup Center Nick Cole is filling in at LG. Jason Peters hasn’t played much in the preseason and he’s coming off a season in which he gave up 11-1/2 sacks. RG Stacey Andrews is coming off knee surgery and has hardly played so far. And the only guy who’s been there all along, C Jamal Jackson, is the worst starter. What could possibly go wrong?

Expect more screen passes to Brian Westbrook and LeSean McCoy than anything else.

I can't wait to see it. "Westbrook meet Thomas Davis." "Your turn, Sean? Thomas, Sean. Sean, Thomas."

Peppers will be moving around the line and terrorizing Donovan McNabb all day long.

I soooooooooo hope so!

GO PANTHERS!

    • Yeah exactly. Nothing as formal as a list but say DM was advocating for Stroud and Fitt Bryce. DM Puka and Fitt Mingo. That would probably stick with Tepp
    • Canales not having experience with College QBs shouldn’t matter. A QB is a QB. Say he can only work with already NFL QBs is not a trait I want in a HC and would be damning.  For me it is Ward over Sanders. So I would hope that is who they aim for and we can an avoid the potential drama drafting Sanders may bring. But I have been impressed with Sanders play, too bad about that attitude.    But if Bryce continues to improve this may be a moot point. 
    • If Cam Ward can be anything like Lamar Jackson it's not even a conversation if you should move on from bryce. Thats who he reminds me of in the league right now.
