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.

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

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

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

[That Guy]

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!

[PWNED]

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

[skinsttw]

If McNabb is healthy, they will be above .500 this year. Don't know how good their D will play though. Also, the running game is still a question mark.

[3rd ID SOLDIER]

they fight remember that they aint no punks they took us to the wire with those so called scrubs

[MTK]

The Eagles will enter the season as easily the worst team in the East, but I think they are still dangerous. Maybe not the yearly contender they used to be, but with a healthy McNabb they'll be able to compete.

They still have major problems at WR and that will hold them back. And then there's the non-existent running game, both in terms of a 20+ carry a game back and a overall lack of committment by Reid to pounding the ball.

[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!
