Is it me or do the Eagles have no talent?

[GTripp0012]

So the team is 20 million under the cap. Well, here's why:

QB-D. McNabb
RB-B. Westbrook
FB-Josh Parry
WR-Reggie Brown
WR-J. Gaffney
TE-L.J. Smith
LT-T. Thomas
LG-A. Clarke
C-J. Jackson
RG-S. Andrews
RT-J. Runyan (UPDATED)

DE-J. Kearse
DT-D. Walker
DT-M. Patterson
DE-D. Howard (UPDATED)
LB-G. Richmond
LB-J. Trotter
LB-K. Adams
CB-L. Sheppard
CB-S. Brown
S-M. Lewis
S-B. Dawkins

Trent Cole? Greg Richmond? Who are these guys? I'd like to call attention to the offensive line. If they don't resign Runyan, they will have 2 returning linemen from last year, with one who missed the whole year. I wouldn't expect anything from this team...they just seem outmatched by the rest of that division.

Thoughts?

Actually, once last year I was telling a group of Eagle fans that they were gonna finish in last place because injuries were bound to catch up to them and they had no depth. All I got in response was a laundry list of able bodied scrubs. It's so true, they are in denial.

the funny thing is that they always say skin fans are in denial but the fact is it is the exact opposite

They were on top for a long time--it's hard to stay so up for so long. Our competition will be the Giants.

It is also hard to go from up top to the shit hole in one year. Therefore them bitches are in denial.

I think they're better than some people are giving them credit for. Two things can keep you in any game: an elite QB or a great defense, and at times they have both. They eagles draft well and i'm sure they'll bring in 3-4 new starters via the draft.

They definately have some holes right now though.

[BigSKINBauer]

they don't have that great of a d anymore. Maybe if they get a FEW lbs and a couple people on the line and a couple DBs who aren't overrated.

their d ranked 22 last year.

Hey i'd love to have Trent Cole. He's like demetric evans, only cole had 5 sacks in 5 consecutive games last season.

[Pocket$ $traight]

They are pretty talented on defense. Don't forget about Barber and Howard. It will come down to their O-line. I hope Runyan leaves!

[#56fanatic]

I dont think you can say they dont have any talent, I think they have a good bit. Donovan, westbrook, (I forgot the damn TE name) plus they should have a pretty good pick for a WR. decent O line. Their strength is the D. Kearse, now darren howard, mcduggal in the middle. Trotter, now barber, dawkins. They are still talented. Dont ever rule out the eagles, Reid is a good coach. But I do think we will be mostly battling w/ Dallas and New York. Talent wise, us and G-Men stand alone in the division.

[PWNED]

right, theyll be better than last year, but only 8-8 better, MAYBE 9-7 if they find a gem in the draft.

[Master4Caster]

They have emphasized their line and defense in their free agent moves. Maybe they intend to invest cap dollars on the draft.

I am surprised the Eagles did not show more aggression landing a wide receiver. They put up no fight for Randle-El. Right now, Reggie Brown is their deep threat. ?!?

Philadelphia always believed they had the talent to win the division without TO, so maybe they intend to prove it. The entire East is tougher and it seems the Eagles are not doing enough to improve. Time will tell.

Bet dollars to donuts that ESPN broadcasts Cowboys at Eagles on Monday Night Football!

TO (2004):
2 for 24, 1TD
6 for 46

2 of his worst 3 games were against us (and he left the other bad game early due to a BAD injury).

Reggie Brown (2005):
5 for 94, 1 TD
7 for 77, 2 TDs

I wouldn't knock brown so harshly, he had field days on us compared to TO.

In fact, 30% of his yardage and 75% of his TDs came in 2 games versus us. (average yardage/game should be 6.25% of his yearly total, he had 5 times that)
