Eagles dream team?

This reminds me of a debate I had in Jan of 08 about the Packers/Giants game

People were so dead set the Packers would bounce them out..I wasnt so sure just because of what the Giants were doing in the playoffs.

I was looked down upon and asked why wasnt I in the Packers corner..

I hope to GOD Philly doesnt end up being as good as they appear to be

But dont say I am not a real Packer fan because I think another team might be better

Seems like Neal has issues staying healthy just like Jenkins...

So if he isnt playing he cant be as good as Jenkins

He is psychic, I've tested him multiple times.

LOL!!

My point was that you had an excuse that Jenkins was injured a little to much. and now Neal seems to be getting injured too...

Just cant always say one way is the right way, because you just never know

I thought argument was that on "paper" Philly are champs but chemistry might not be there..Just cuz the new free agents they got are talented, you cant say they push them over the top....

Wasnt that what everyone is saying?

So you or anyone else putting our rookies out there like that, isnt that saying the same thing?

I wouldnt count on our rookies yet..

I think on paper the Eagles have the better defense...Offense we do by a bit..

Just depends on how Philly gels..If we are to met them in the playoffs (if both rosters stay the same as it is now) then I will be very worried

But dont blast me cuz that is my opinion..

If you are talking strictly "on paper" than that narrows the gap between them and us significantly. I'll give the Eagles that, they've put up one hell of a roster in a short period of time ("on paper") but that is where it ends. If we really want to get into this hard core, let's start comparing each position "on paper" and see what we got. That will drive us to madness! When all is said and done, the Packers still have an advantage "on paper", no matter how you look at it. But to be honest, a lot of the times "on paper" proves to be worthless at the end and is often very deceptive. I go by what I see out there on the field. Hard core reality, not something that should be, according to what it written on paper.

I really think we need to give it a rest about these bloody Eagles. Finley hit the nail right on the head. Why are WE even worried about them? They should be worried about us, and according to their owner, they are. How about some confidence and faith in our Packers! Screw the Eagles!

Yes..This is the same coaching staff for most part that got them to how many NFCCG? And a SB, all be it a few years ago..But they are capable...

What is our one weekness, prob s/t???....Can only keep Philly s/t unit down for so long..

It took a interception in the end zone, and a few missed f/g for us to win last year in playoffs...

It wasnt like we were leaps and bounds better then them..And we havent really upgraded our D other then getting some injured players back..Whom btw are not really proven for a whole season..

Our offense played pretty good vs their D in the playoffs....But, Philly's D added proven players..It only depends on if they gel, which I think they will..

Philly isnt ran like the Skins, or other teams that over spend for free agents..

Please dont blast me..That is how I feel..

No blasting, you are making some good points, LTF. Some of them we don't like to think of or admit to. They are perhaps a lot closer to us than we realize but I'm still going with the Pack over perhaps a slight margin. The Eagles went all in this year, they put everything into it just to try to come close to matching us. The Packers set the bar pretty high, and the Eagles and all other teams are trying to catch us. Can we rank them 2nd in the NFC (behind the Packers #1) and be happy with that? I think that would be fair and maybe a good look at how the NFC championship game may go down this year.

Got to add Saints and Atlanta there too..

People can make a case for all four of us when ranking 1-4
