Lets have an area to discuss probably the strongest division in the NFL. You have the revamped Redskins, the NEW YORK FOOTBALL GIANTS!!!!!!!!!!, the Eagirls, and the Cowboys.

With guys like Portis, now Eddie George, TO, Eli, Warner, added to the mix, it looks like it is up for grabs.go big blue

Right now though on paper as much as I hate to say it, G-Men 4-life I would have to give the division to the skins.

Go Giants

Giants have an AWFUL season, 'Skins look good on paper but choke as usual, Philly DOESN'T make the NFC Title game and therefore doesn't lose it either, and Dallas does aiight.

I wanna say Dallas wins the division with Parcells winning ahead of schedule and all but I dunno. It will be them or Philly.

if you think any team other than the Philadelphia Eagles will win this divison, you are fucking retarded. the Eagles have a REVAMPED OFFENSE adding TO, regaining Brian Westbrook and with TO on the team, he single handly opens the field for Pinkston, LJ Smith, FredEx Freddie Mitchell and Buckhalter.
The defense which was completely destroyed is healthy and we added the pass rusher threat that we lost when Hugh Douglas left with THE PHREAK, Jevon Kearse. Plus, second year man Jerome McDougle is now healthy along with Jamaal Green, Paul Grasmanis, Hollis Thomas, Sam Rayburn. What we lacked at the end of the year was depth which wore everyone else (LBs and DBs) down. We REACQUIRED Jeremiah Trotter who was made for DC Jim Johnson's scheme. He provides depth and versatitly with the linebackers.
Plus not many people know that Taylor and Vincent were both down for HUGE portions of last season. Only playing together in 5 games! Brian Dawkins also were hurt, which means that Lito Shepard, Sheldon Brown and Clinton Hart (bench still) had lots of playing time and chances to progress... which they did considering we won 9 straight last year.

Also, if you look at the Eagles' schelude... it is unbelieveablly easier than any other team in the NFC East. For example, the Birds HOST Baltimore, Green Bay, Carolina, and others while Dallas plays Baltimore and GB ON THE ROAD!

This team is on a mission. There is no stopping them.

Eagles: Elite
Dallas: (as much as I hate to say it) good, rising, few more years
Washington: Joe Gibbs needs time to get back into the swing of things, plus many unwise signings, many vets
New York Giants: No offensive line, 1 Washed up QB, 1 Rookie QB, 1 TV QB.... no where near ready.... PLUS THE QUIT LAST YEAR AND THEY ARE PUSSYS. NY should be ashamed of them for quitting.

Don't even think anyone other than the Birds will win the Division (4 Straight) and go far.... this time REALLY FAR into the Playoffs.

I am a G-Men fan. I think that T.O. is a bitch. Last time we played his ass we ruled him until the gay defensive coordinator changed to zone coverage on one of the last plays. Our D can shut him down anytime.

Clinton Portis is the real deal, he will win the Skins 3-4 more games than usual.

Dallas repeats last year, either that or worse. There is no way they can do better with their QB situation.

They are pretty strong overall, but no team from the NFC East has a shot at winning the NFL Championship except for MAYBE the Eagles, but I don't see them ever getting past the NFC Championship game.

Cowboys still have a question mark at QB, I just don't think Quincy Carter is really all that good. Plus their RB situation improved, but anything was an improvement over Hambrick or whatever his name was. Redskins have gotten better but I am not sold on Burnell coming it at all, I think they shoulda just stuck with Ramsey. If he had some protection last year things would have been a lot different. Giants aren't going to do shit in the NFC East IMO...Cowboys, Redskins and Eagles are all a lot stronger them

Basically, every team has up and down periods. Giants are heading for a down, the Skins are going to flop again IMO, and the Cowboys and Eagles are a top the division right now. A few years down the road this is going to change. With the exception of maybe the Cowboys still being decent, if Parcells sticks around that long.

I read someone on ESPN actually said that picking up TO changed everything about the Eagles, and changed Andy Reid's philosophy, and altered the team completely, but he was glad.

What happens if Andy Reid can't get to sleep in the bed he's made for himself? What if he CAN'T coach TO and this Eagles team? What then?

It's very easy to do, too. If you can't make it with the talent you've got, then what's missing isn't talent. The Patriots and the Bucs and the Rams did it on their own. The Bucs picked up Brad Johnson who was basically a cast-off... McCardell definitely was; the Rams did it with Marshall Faulk and Kurt Warner, both cast-offs (Faulk was kicked out for being too old, and replaced with Edgerrin James. Good one, Colts).

Redskins have been loading up on imported talent, stealing it from other teams. The players aren't allowed to grow together, so they can't play as a team, and when the sport they're playing is the most dependent on trust and teamwork of any sport ever, then that can lead to a major problem.

We definitely need to look into a new HB and some WR's. Ours are decent right now, but aging. We have a whole new starting linebacking corp and the new MLB Nick Greisen is going to look like a solid starter for years to come. We drafted Reggie Torbor out of Auburn, a specialist on defense that can rush the QB from the OLB spot. I hope Coughlin can take us to the promised land.

I also think that the Eagles are going to blow big dick this year.

Also to add, the Redskins just needed coaching, I think with Joe Gibbs they have definitely found it.

LOL Sensei Of Mattitude. It's like 2001, 2002, 2003 all over again.

Does anyone else remember that in the past NFC Championship games, the Eagles had a less than 100% Donovan McNabb (2002 with the ankle, 2003 taken out due to his ribs), does anybody realize that the Eagles went to 3 NFC Title games with James Thrash as their #1 WR? James Thrash. Are you serious? TO makes the entire offense that much better by getting extra attention his way. Double Teams Galore. Thats how he opens up the field.

Freddie Mitchell totally sucking? 4th and 26.

TO uncoachable? He has already bought into Andy Reid's system. He WANTED TO COME TO PHILADELPHIA TO WIN A SUPERBOWL. Why would he be uncoachable? He wants to do everything possible to win.

All of the other NFC East teams are just jealous that they are not as good as us.

Redskins: Not a Team, too much imported talent. Will eventually become team, but not now.
Dallas: QBs suck, RBs Suck, Old OL.
NYG: NO OL, Washed up QB, Rookie QB, no lines, older LBs.

I think your a bitch, bitch.

Clinton Portis looked pretty stellar last year (with the World Heavyweight Title belt on the sidelines) but lets see how well he does with the Redskins Offensive line thats blocking for him. Denver's line and scheme is unbelieveable. They made 3 or 4 different backs in 1,500 carriers. Portis, Anderson, Davis and wasnt there another one? Denver made the trade because they can make anyone succeed in their offense (Hearst). Lets see how the "Real Deal" Baby Ruth can do it with the Skins OL.

Dallas: unfavorable schelude. 9-7

We drafted Reggie Torbor out of Auburn, a specialist on defense that can rush the QB from the OLB spot. I hope Coughlin can take us to the promised land.

Greisen is the only weak linebacker if Green steps up on the weak side.

I think the o-line will hold up as long as Petigout's back holds, him and Snee would make a good left side of the line.

I've never been sold on Tiki. He's a great guy but the man has the most fumbles in the NFL. 17 in the past two seasons. That one game two seasons ago against the Eagles he had 4. Thats unacceptable and Coughlin knows that. He'll be happy to bench Tiki...leaving us with...Dayne.

Toomer and Hilliard are doing fine. Toomer's numbers dropped off because by week 6 the G-Men had no offensive line. Hilliard is still in his 20's.

As for QB, if the o-line holds Warner will also, making way for Eli.

Julius Jones, rookie, hasnt played in the NFL yet, where did he go to college?, they passed up Stephen Jackson for him?

Bickerstaff: injured

Cason: decent 3rd down speedster

lol. Julius Jones was the ONLY good thing Notre Dame had going last year, you fool! And good job saying the team blows after already saying in this topic that they were "good and rising" and would go 9-7. NICE credibility there. So do you know ANYTHING about non-Eagles football?

Sensei Of Mattitude
07-27-2004, 11:05 AM
I'm sorry #1-wwf-fan....

When I say 9-7 fucking blows, its probably because the Eagles have been 11-5, 11-5, 12-4, and 12-4 the past 4 seasons. We haven't experienced a shitty 9-7 season for a long time nor in the near future.

Oh yes, by the way, lets what what Julius Jones has. If he was so good, then why did Dallas sign Eddie George? Explain that.

Oh and one more thing...... what was Notre Dame's record last year? Yeah, thats what I thought. A great running back could carry his team to a couple more wins (Larry Johnson; PSU)



P.S. you mentioned earlier if Andy Reid could coach TO.... well lets see if Parcells can coach Antonio Bryant. He seems more of a problem than a guy who wanted to play for Coach Reid.

You fucking idiot.

07-27-2004, 02:11 PM
Giants: Really, I would be willing to bet money that the Giants secondary can shut the Eagles WR's down. Easy. Two years ago when the Giants opened up the season with the 49er's we shut T.O. down the whole damn game going man up with Will Allen covering him all over the field. The other WR's did jack shit. Will Allen is capable of covering the best in the game, and he is going to be a shutdown corner down the road in a few years. Will Peterson, is a slightly bigger version of Allen, who is also a very exceptional cover man.

Our LB's aren't old at all. Barrett Green is in his prime. Nick Greisen is only around 25. Carlos Emmons is the only "old" guy of our group. If they mesh well, they will play well. We have a good rotation on our defensive line, and some very good up and coming talent as well as solid veterans. Our defense is going to be head and shoulders better than last year, that is for sure.

The question mark lies within the QB...we have an O-Line. Petitgout and Seubert are a hell of a couple of lineman. We picked up Shaun O'Hara from Cleveland, for center. David Diehl stepped in last year at G and played very well. We need to just fill the other T position.

You need to watch every game of your team to know them, and some of the points you people make are just utterly moronic.

Oh and one more thing...... what was Notre Dame's record last year? Yeah, thats what I thought. A great running back could carry his team to a couple more wins (Larry Johnson; PSU)

They signed Eddie George because Parcells is smart enough not to start a rookie @ RB this year without absolutely needing to. Same reason Marshall Faulk will be starting in St. Louis. It's called depth.

And about a good RB being able to carry his team to a few more wins... seriously... WTF. Did you WATCH the games? Have you EVER seen him play? I'm guessing no. And by that logic, Ladanian Tomlinson must just be awful since his team was so bad last year. If he was good, they would have won a couple more games.

P.S. you mentioned earlier if Andy Reid could coach TO.... well lets see if Parcells can coach Antonio Bryant. He seems more of a problem than a guy who wanted to play for Coach Reid.

Thats the game where Carlos Emmons broke his leg. Where Todd Pinkston was going into the end zone for a TD but fumbled and gave San Fran a touchback.
Whats any of this got to do with this coming season? Just because you dont like the Birds, you like to come up with out of nowhere, no sense comments. You must be super smart.

Considering that the Eagles have been in 3 straight NFC Title games means that the coaching staff knows how to run to a team. Andy Reid has lost veterans every year and replaced them with younger talent and have gotten better each year. Now they bring in PROVEN VETERANS who are DIFFERENCE MAKERS. Thats why the Eagles are ranked #2 in the ESPN Power Rankings only behind the Champs, the Patriots. Thats why the Eagles are picked to go to the Super Bowl this year by a handful of analyists.

The Eagles seem to have a history of injuries. Both of their CBs and their star FS last season, Brian Westbrook, Correll Buckhalter the year before... McNabb frequently is injured... they tend to have a lot of injuries on the Defensive line...

Are they playing on turf? :chin:

Because I get the feeling that Kearse might not make it a full season... and if he ends up slowed by injuries, remember one thing: The Eagles signed him for a very long time for a very large sum of money. :yes:

And when I mentioned Owens being coached by Reid... what I said was, someone on ESPN.com stated that Reid has changed his philosophy to fit TO into the scheme.

If Andy Reid has changed his philosophy to allow TO to run free... how will that affect the team as a whole?

What if he has to let Owens run his mouth and do whatever he wants, which leads to more and more players running their mouth, to the point where Reid no longer has any power?

Lots of what-if's... but we can speculate, because Andy Reid has admittedly changed his approach to coaching. This is not the same Andy Reid who makes it to the NFC championship every year. Oh no. This is an Andy Reid under the thumb of his star receiver. :yes:

AlphaBean..... you bring a good post here. Some questions that I have the answer for.

1) Lincoln Financial Field has natural grass. They do not play on turf like they did at the Vet.

2) Jevon Kearse's contract is a 8 year deal with the last remaining years very backloaded. He agreed to the contract due to the nice $16 million dollar signing bonus we gave him. He played in 14 out of 16 games last year, racking up 28 tackles, 9 1/2 sacks, and 1 Int. And, no NFL contract is guaranteed.

3) When you add TO to a "spread the ball around West Coast offense", things will change a bit. More balls will be thrown his way than there were the way of James Thrash. But TO wont be "RUNNING FREE". At the press conference of TO's signing/trade/whatever, Coach Reid mentioned that he had a talk with TO and layed down how things will be done around here and TO accepted those "rules". San Francisco was TO's team. TO was the leader. Here in Philly... TO takes a backseat to #5. McNabb leads the team.

4) Andy Reid has complete control of the team. He is the GM as well as the Coach. He doesnt hesitate cutting players that are too much money (Taylor and Vincent), too old (Hugh Douglas) and too much of a problem (Trotter when he left). Andy Reid only answers to the higher ups (Jeffery Lurie, the Owner). He doesn't answer to TO, TO answers to Coach Reid and #5.

5) Injuries:

McNabb: Broken Ankle 2002 (threw 4 TDs with, I was at that game). Came back for the playoffs, was not the same. Wasn't the same until 7 weeks into season last week.
Injured Ribs, during NFC Title game, last hit by Panthers D-Lineman (I forget who.... one of the ends I think)

Westbrook: tackled by Trotter, Week 17, fell and tore tricep. Freak landing.

Buckhalter was not injured last season. He was suspended for the Week 16 game (49ers) for missing a meeting. Another example of Coach Reid showing his authority. Buckhalter did tear his quad during the 2002 Training Camp, leading to the Eagles signing Dorsey Levens.

The defensive line got ripped up last season. Hollis Thomas is repeately injured. One year his ankle, last year his shoulder. A big part of this season is for them to be healthy.

Kearse always has nagging injuries, never has been the same since his breakout season years ago. He is overrated. Premier DE should post 15+ sack seasons, which he didn't do.

Injuries are always tough, it happens to every team, it is a toss up and can't be helped I'm afraid.

From all reports (including his physical!) The Phreak is 100% Healthy.

Plus sacks arent everything for DEs. Just like home runs in baseball. It isn't the most important stat. The Phreak has been brought in to provide sacks, command doubles teams to free up the rest of the defensive line (Pro Bowler Corey Simon, Darwin Walker, ND Kalu/Jerome McDougale/Derrick Burgress) and provide pressure on the quarterback to allow the Eagles to blitz less and have the linebackers drop back into coverage. Thats why The Phreak is here.

Injures are toss ups and happen to all the teams. Not a lot of people realize that we have been hit with a lot of them the past 2 seasons and HAVE STILL GOTTEN TO THE NFC TITLE GAME.




By the way... TO has already bitched. The players are required to wear shorts during mini-camps. TO doesnt wear shorts, he likes his tights. Well guess what, after a discussion...... TO WAS WEARING SHORTS DURING MINI-CAMP.

I doubt it, Jim Johnson loves to blitz. The Eagles D will always be a blitzing team no matter what while he is coaching them. Kearse definitely doesn't warrant double teams anymore. He can be blocked by any solid T.

Did I say The Phreak is Invincable? No one is. We have experienced this with McNabb.

JJ loves to blitz yes. But with the younger Cornerbacks (who did play great last year), the Eagles want to keep pressure off of them. We acquired Kearse to provide more pressure on the QB so we dont have to keep blitzing. Our blitzs now will be out of control.

Kearse still warrants a double team. 2 teams who will double team him... Dallas and the NYG.

Thanks, the reserves do step up.

Heres the question:

Eagles win the game, with TO having 2 Catches for 34 yards. Is he happy? He should be because he wants the ring. It isnt about his stats. If he is happy winning the game and having small production, then there is no stopping the team.

That is yet to be determined. But from what TO says, he will be happy. He came here for the Ring.

Gonzo
07-29-2004, 01:19 AM
Nah, you didn't say Kearse is invicible, but he surely won't be 100% healthy the whole season, I can almost guarantee that given his history.

I hate the fact everyone thinks the Giants line is shit, we have good players, just because we haven't had them playing together for some number of years means jack shit, seeing as how that doesn't happen hardly at all in the Free Agency Era.

The NFC is so closely knit that there is no way the Eagles are guaranteed an NFC Championship appearance again, much less a ring.

Sensei Of Mattitude
07-29-2004, 01:31 AM
You cant "almost guarantee" Kearse will be injured. He has played 6 seasons and missed 14 games. Thats not terrible. You can spectulate and say maybe he will. But no "almost guarantee".

The Giants line has not played well. Plus they quit last year as did the team. The Eagles Oline has played together for the past couple of years now and they are a well oiled machine. They know how to play with each other. Now that Welbourne is gone (who was also injured last year, and replaced by Artis Hicks who played well) and Shawn Andrews is in, there will be some learning time for them. But its not as drastic as the Giants line is.

I dont think the NFC is so tightly knit. As I see it, the Eagles and Seahawks are elite teams. With a bunch of good teams in the Rams, Falcons, Panthers, Packers and Vikings. Can the "good" teams win, yeah because its happened. But dont hold ur breathe.

The Vikings improved in every area, you bastard.

Some experts give them respect, others don't. It depends on how you value the talent they imported.

Denard Walker was the reason we didn't beat the Cardinals. I am pretty sure the reason we flopped was coaching inexperience. Majorly stupid decisions.

We don't flop. We choke. In 98, we were injured and the Falcons exploited the injuries by keeping our weak defense on the field longer. By the end of the game, half of our starters had to be carted off.

In '01, injuries slowed us, but a lack of unity killed us. John Randle and Cris Carter were both killing team morale. Our veteran leaders. The captains of both sides of the ball. Nobody wanted to win in 2001, because their leaders didn't want to win. :nono:

Can't forget, the Giants heard the Minnesota huddles. Kinda made for lopsided football, and since the Gints couldn't even manage to whimper against the Ravens in the SB, they proved they didn't deserve to be there.

They had the #1 offense in the NFL last season, despite missing Pep for 2 games, Bennett for 7, and having no #2 WR.

We have a #2 WR, a fully healthy Bennett and Pep... and improved on defense bigtime.

So we are a top-5 team. Patriots own us, but the Eagles are lacking too much talent on both sides of the ball. Do they have a lot of talent? Sure. But they're not stronger anywhere than the Vikings.

Dawkins might be a step up from Chavous, but if Dawkins can stay healthy, he's still not better than both Chavous AND Russell... and the other safety for the Eagles... I forget his name.

Two practically rookie corners...

Actually I think what you have is a better coach, and that makes all the difference.

But if MN isn't elite talent-wise, then the Eagles aren't either.

I didn't say they lost because of the injuries. I said that the Falcons exploited the thin and weak defense. They played brilliant football, and unmasked a very poor defense that used the best offense in HISTORY to pad their leads, so they could blitz and get interceptions.

Chavous made the pro bowl. I GUESS THAT ACCOUNTS FOR SOMETHING. He's constantly billed as one of the smartest players in the NFL. Russell led the league in Interceptions last season. :?: I guess that doesn't matter, since he didn't hold the team together.

Way to evade the question. The Vikings have been rebuilding. Last year they fell apart under a new head coach. If they do the same this year, he will be gone.

Vikings still match up favorably with the Eagles. Better CBs, better offensive line, better WRs, better HBs, the D Lines might be equal if not in Philly's favor, but the LB corps of both teams suck. Both teams have good safeties, with one pro bowler and one solid starter.

I won't make that argument. I don't know who will win. Last time they met, Duce Staley shredded our defense.

But now we have Winfield who will shut down half of the field, and Williams who already has proven he can take Owens out of the game.

Our front 4 will be lacking Kenny Mixon :'( in week 2, but we'll have K-dub, Hovan, hopefully Udeze, and Lance Johnstone putting pressure on McNabb on every play. He should conceivably spend most of the game on his back, if he's not taken out of the game with injuries.

Westbrook is good, but he's not elite. Our LBs are fast and athletic, and Claiborne is borderline elite when he's healthy. By week 2 he should still be healthy, and Westbrook's talent will be matched up with the talent of our front seven.

And as you said, as it stands, the Eagles defense won't be able to touch the Vikings offense. If they execute.

And we all know that added players make your team better. :nono:And according to their QB, they aren't much of "fans" anyway. :(

Eagles fans suck, when they are up they brag. When they are down they throw shit at their own team. Plus they throw shit at the away team most of the time too. Bunch of scumbags. No wonder they had a courthouse under the Vet. They should get one at Lincoln Finanicial if they don't have one already too.

Hey fucktard......

The Linc does have a court room and many holding cells in it. Thats how hardcore we are. If you didnt notice, we like our rep as bad ass, no nonsense, punch u in the face fans. We live for that.

I challange you to come to the Linc wearing opposing teams colors and walk out 100% healthy.

Fucktard.


WORDMUTHA:

I have been a huge Eagles fan since I was born. Born with Green and Silver blood. I'm definitely from Philly. Thank God you are here too.

lol. OOOH SO HARDCORE WE NEED HOLDING CELLS!!!

Glad you're proud of your teams fans being dicks. Raiders fans are more "hardcore" anyway. Believe me.

Raider fans are crazy, Eagle fans are lame. I mean when they cheered Michael Irvin when he got severly injured just proved how stupid and idiotic they are.

Yeah, you should never get your jollies off of something like that.

Notice how I said they should get one if they don't already have one. I never doubted the fact they had one, asswipe.

It isn't too proud when you have a damn court room and threaten other fans. It is pathetic, to think any sort of bullshit like that goes on. It is a fucking sport, not life or death, and if you think it is then you should try joining the army. That is life and death, dick.

Raiders fans play "dress up". How fucking cute. And why in the blue hell should I believe you #1-wwf-fan? What have you stated that I should believe? Um, nothing.

Does Oakland's NAC have a court and holding cells?

We're tougher because we dont need to "dress up" to intimidate our adversaries. Fuck the Cowboys, fuck their players, its pure hatred. That star represents Satan to us. Its the color red in the movie "The Village", its what we hate.

So next time........

Call us Lame to our faces, fuckers.

Godamnit football season, I luv it. Screw you philly fan, the Eagles will be lucky to make it as far as they have , this year. Them signing the 'Freak' will be like the biggest bust of the season, i'll give him til like the 7th week before he tears up a hammy and is out for the season. Ohh and then there's good ole T.O who finally gives the great bedwetter McNabb a weapon. They still have no running game ,Suckhalter and Westbrook couldn't gain 100 yards with your grandma on the opposite side between them. I'll can't wait when T.O goes down the middle and Roy Williams knocks his silly monkey ass out.

Bowdown to the star baby!

TO was signed to do the dirty work because Philly has prima donnas. LOL. Now he's going to tiptoe out of bounds like the rest of them, that will be awesome.

Anyway, Sensei is the first Iggles fan to admit that they are pieces of shit. He says philly fans are proud, but most of the ones I talk to deny being that way.

It's funny.

I did. Giants vs. Eagles

Albeit people yelled down from the top of the stadium to call me a fag and the Giants suck, nevertheless I did walk away healthy.

You don't know hell until you walk through a Philly tailgate wearing a Shockey jersey, having 300-500 people yelling "asshole" at you.

Reading all of Sensei's posts in this topic is a good example of that. :lol:

Oh yeah... and I'm pretty sure the Panthers walked into The Linc last year wearing opposing jerseys, embarassed Philly in the championship game, and they all left healthy enough to compete in the Super Bowl 2 weeks later.

PHilly has always had the worst/classless fans.

Threw snowballs at Santa.
Cheered when Irvin went off in a stretcher.

I'll admit sox/yanks fans can get nasty, but there's still some lines you don't cross.

funny story about the game, my friend was walking to the john and some Eagles fan started yelling at him, "Giants suck go home you ****** etc.", my friend turns around and the guy was wearing an Akers Jersey. My friend goes, "dude, you are wearing a kicker's jersey". The guy walks away

Why do you think Deion was able to dance around the field for a freakin' minute and a half before reaching the end zone on his kick returns. That son of a bitch was all hopped up!
