Problem with that logic is it is also the coaches job to figure out where they went wrong and correct it. The fact that they have been there three times and not won, shows that Andy has not figured the problem out and therefor cannot correct it, and that is just poor coaching.

i can agree with that to a degree..yes if the coach has been there that many times and haven\'t won the "big one",he\'s got some issues to dissect, i still give him credit for gettin them there tho, that\'s what so many teams play for. some teams even know that they won\'t go to the super bowl, but are just happy to make it to the post-season...same thing happened with the bills back in 90\'s. i think they went to tha super bowl what? three times in a row and lost them all...

I\'m not an Andy hater or even an Eagles hater, but I don\'t think they have a chance in hell of making it to the "big one". They will make it to their division title again and I suspect they\'ll lose it, yet again.

yea i agree they\'ll make it,..but terril owens may make a difference here...as far as him takin\' the pressure off other receivers,..but eh who knows..it also helps that the east division is weak...*dallas* (my team) giants, wash..probably the weakest division...

Philly is a 12-4 team who I picked to go to the superbowl, unfortunately I do think that both the Falcons & Vikings are potential threats.

Tonight we see our first preview.

Three reasons to go against Reid...the three NFC losses? That is, to put things bluntly, horse shit.

He took a 3-13 ball club and turned them into not only one of the most respected franchises in football, but one of the most respected franchises in professional sports. Period.

What is he now? 57-33 with the Eagles? Coach of the year in 2000 and 2002? He\'s made teams that played good in the present, and at the same time were being shaped for the future.

Well, then again, I guess the argument isn\'t that he\'s not a great coach...that would be rediculous. The argument is that those three NFC Championship losses reflect upon his coaching...and possibly his tenure ending should a fourth one occur. That\'s insane. He was just signed to a four year extension simply because he\'s such a great coach, and he (along with joe banner and jeffrie lurie) are doing such a great job with the eagles.

But let\'s relive those three NFC Championships. Three years ago. Eagles vs. Rams. The Eagles were overachieving, they shouldn\'t have gotten their with the roster they had, but REID got them there. Very few expected to see them come out of that one with a victory. Tampa Bay...alright, this one I will put some blame on Reid. He backed off his offensive gameplan and played conservatively...which isn\'t what got the Eagles that far. Last year...there\'s no question...with the roster that we had, and all the injuried coupled in (namely those to our offensive and defensive MVPs come playoff time), we shouldn\'t have been there...but got there through REID\'S coaching. Once there, there\'s not much the coach can do about his WR\'s being manhandled at the LOS...which really wasn\'t a problem before then.

This year...this year we\'ve got the talent AND the coaching to go all the way.

As for the Monday night game...the Eagles played great on both sides of the ball. Just some key things...

*LJ Smith: Is he making any strides in making a believer out of any of you?

*The defense was amazing. The line was getting pressure all game...our secondary kept Moss in check. And our "bend but don\'t break" philosophy worked to a T. Minnesotta wasn\'t comfortable all game, and we used that to our advantage.

3-0 next week in Detroit

The Eagles are a good team, but I really don\'t think they are going to make it all the way. I think if nothing else, they will have to overcome the mental aspect of the game and in my opinion, that may be enough to hurt them. Also, another factor is depending to much on T.O . You cannot base a team around one player, the 49\'ers learned that. Hell, even the Vikings have learned that with Moss and that is why you see Moss not making as many plays and doing more things, such as blocking.

On a side note, we are just not approaching week three, I don\'t think we can really make guesses on who the big two teams are going to be. It\'s still way to early in the year. All I do know is, my team, the Colts are not Super-bowl bound, due to a slacking defense..

heh if it\'s one thing i\'ve noticed about the colts is that they\'re defense is really lacking...if it wasn\'t for manning & james & harrison lighting it up on the offensive side of things..the colts would be in trouble...but yea it\'s way to early to start predicting...*thinks of what happened to pittsburgh last year* started off strong and towards the end just went into a complete slump..
