The Next Generation Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 is wide open AGAIN for the Philadelphia Eagles! 5th NFC East title in the last 6 years and on a roll going into the playoffs. For all of you that had them buried before the season even started and said that last year was a precurser for what was in store for the Eagles for years to come can come eat your crow now. The Eagles are a solid team throughout and are YOUNG. That's right, the offensive and defensive lines are very young and will be dominating the division for years to come. Eagles window is wide open and looking promising for years to come... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way our division is, the Skins will be the cream of the crop next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_am_the_swammi Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 The way our division is, the Skins will be the cream of the crop next year. "The way our division is?"?????? Are you saying its unpredictable? The NFC East is perhap the MOST predictable....the same team has won the division 5 of 6 times. The same team whose defense was not as tough as in previous years...the same team with a QB who isn't accurate....the same team with an injury-prone RB....the same team with WRs who aren't true "number 1" WRs. The Eagles run as the division's "team-to-beat" will end sometime...probably not until Reid retires, though. The system he has in place speaks volumes...replace QB (several seasons), replace WR (two years ago when Owens got hurt), replace RB (threee years ago)...doesn't matter when the system is is a gem, and more importnatly, the players buy into it. All Eagle players are on board with Reid, and when it comes to team chemistry, everyone is pointed in the right direction. In comparison, ask Barber and Shockey if they buy into Coughlin's system...almost laughable. But Next Generation is right on the money....very young OL AND DL....and RB....and WRs....and CBs. And even LB Omar Gaither is turning into a serious player. Replace Trotter and Dawkins over the next 2-3 years, and this team is built to last.
