Yes nittanyliono the Giants went 8-8, and are playing a 3rd place schedule. And now the Redskins are playing a 4th place schedule with a good QB who knows the division in and out. So yes the Cowboys are still the most talented team, and the Eagles even with Kolb are the second most talented. Now its between the Redskins and Giants, and that is at worst a 1-1 split but I’m feeling a 2-0 Redskins sweep. Your division is very strong, and I’m sorry but the Giants will finish last. Don’t take it too hard pal. It’s not your fault.

Duan I am not an eagles fan, but I do live in Jersey 15 minutes from Philly, so I have to see and know everything Eagles.
I’m not disagreeing with you that McNabb played well in Philly. I was merely playing the devils advocate(I hate that cliche). His main problem was that he is not a West Coast Offense QB. He is not consistently accurate enough to play in Reid’s system. I actually do blame Reid for most of the Eagles implosions. I still think he should of went before McNabb, but for some reason he is untouchable.

@ boysroll – check it out,
Dominating the NFC East ok, 2 years ’07 and ’09, whoopty freakin’ doo!
How many playoffs wins have you fake a$$ cowboy fans had, you janky joker?
The team of the 90′s, sure okay – still want to dream about the heyday!
Since you want to talk facts and the past, fine by me, lets do that!
Out of 26 games betweens the Browns and Cowboys, guess who has won 15 of them and holds the lead! The Browns!
Out of the 3 playoff games between the two teams, the Browns have won 2 of them and loss one!
I can harp on the yester years as well, we are talking about the now!
My got dang facts were correct, you were just ignoring and riding on empty gas! You still haven’t been to a championship game nor even made it past the first round in the playoffs, but once and that just happened last year!?
Not another hater, I’m just a real true football fan, that is a Browns fan.
Cowboy, Steeler, 49ers fans are just a bunch of bandwagoneers beacsuse of the 70′s, 80′s and 90′s!
I call it like I see it!

Birdmancometh: “Come on B-Dawk! First you leave Philly for a big payday (the eagles offered you a raise in 2009 from what you made in 2008 yet you chased the money), and then you trash the team for trading McNabb? Don’t forget that Donovan got “the best desired outcome” as has been stated on this site. I loved to watch Donovan, but he and you need to realize that they did right by both of you. Now mind your own business in Denver and enjoy those big paychecks.”
God do you even know what you’re talking about? The Eagles wanted to give him $15 mill for 3 years and the Broncos offered him $17 mil. That’s not a big payday.
Oh wait you’re still annoyed your secondary sucked after you let a great player go to another team. Same way your offense will suck after you let McNabb go. Start crying for the Mike Vick era already.

hey duan…browns fan..enough said as you turd team has won nothing.
Buddy…we are dominating the NFC east the last couple of yrs. We have just as much talent as anybody else in this league and beat the SB champs. We were the team of the 90′s with 3 SB’s and second most in NFL history. I believe we have the most SB appearances too.
So get ya G-dang facts straight before your sorry a throws all this crap onto this site you freaking moron.
HOW BOUT THOSE COWBOYS!!! JUST ANOTHER HATER…LOVE IT THOUGH AS YOU ALL KNOW WE WILL BE SB CHAMPS THIS YR.

Ok. so you just traded a guy with similar numbers to JC’s stats. I can cross the beagles and 4skins off as contenders.
HOW BOUT THOSE COWBOYS!!!!!LMAO ON THESE TWO JOKE ORGS.
——————————————————–
I think you need to be eating some of that humble pie homey, because Romo’s playoff record is nowhere as good as McNabb’s – you guys haven’t been good since 1995! You guys haven’t even been relevant! 6 playoff apperances since 1995, to Philly’s 10 playoff apperances!? How many championship games has your stankin’ cowboys made it to in that period! ZERO! How many playoff victories have you guys had in that period? ONE!!!!
C’mon bruh, like I said – I’m a Browns fan and know that!? I wouldn’t even be talking trash up here, if I was you!
A typical cowboy fan, talking trash with empty rhetoric! Such a typical Bandwagoneer!

He was never the right qb for andy reids offense. You have to be an accurate passer when you throw the ball 50 times a game. As for the redskins, they can have him and let him puke in their huddle in crunch time………

Duan and Gautam
Everyone makes WAY too big of a deal of what race the QB is. Randall Cunningham never won anything in Philly, and he is considered one of the best QB’s in franchise history. And everyone loves Randall whether they are white or black.
McNabb is disliked or even hated because his nonchalant attitude, and for never seeming to care after he threw a pick or a wormball or missed a wide-open receiver. He just smile and do his little my bad chest tap. And that does not fly for a lot of people in Philly.
Andy Reid is white, and hasn’t won a Super Bowl too and guess what! Eagles fans hate him more that McNabb. But by your thinking that can’t be true. How can all those racist Eagles fans hate whitey?

Can’t disagree with anything Dawkins said. Just as Reid had secured his spot as Head Coach with the drafting and success of McNabb, the same job security should be lost if the Kolb experiment fails. Like someone already said, if this team goes south in the next couple years, you can bet you will see the end of the Andy Reid regime.

Let’s keep it real ! First and foremost, I’m a Browns fan!
Donovan McNabb was drafted in the Quarterback Class of ’99! 5 QB’s drafted in the first round that year! Akili Smith, Cade McNown, Tim Couch, Donovan McNabb and Daunte Culpepper!
D-Macs numbers for 11 years, 216 Touchdowns and only 100 interceptions! 86.5 Quarterback rating!
Division Champs ’01, ’02, ’03, ’04, ’06 (5 out of 6 years, 4 years in a row!)
Playoff appearances – ’00, ’01, ’02, ’03, ’04, ’06, ’08, ’09 – (8 times in 11 years!)
Conference Championship Games – ’01, ’02, ’03, ’04, ’08 (4 years in a row!)
NFC Champs in 2004
Super Bowl appearance 2004 (lost to a very good New England team 24-21, in which the defense let Tom Brady & Corey Dillon kill’em)
But Philly people are glad this guy is gone!? Bernie Kosar, never even came close to leading the Browns to those numbers and we freakin’ love him!
D Mac – you are alright with me, Philly Fans are the dumbest fans in the world! You deserve better Donovan – waaaaaaaaaay better!
Kevin Kolb won’t even get you guys close to that glory, EVER!

Aw oneGIANTloss did I hurt your feelings by ranking the Giants last? But face the facts. The Giants finished 3rd last year even with the cowboys beating the Eagles twice. The Cowboys have retained basically every one of their core players, which is essential for continued success. The Eagles have one of the youngest and most talented set of skill position players that they have probably ever had. Also having seen Kevin Kolb play in college, his two starts last season, and even when he came in against a dominant Ravens D two years ago I feel he is ready for the NFL. The Redskins have a great defense, and just added a skilled QB who has beaten the Giants 13 times in his career. The Giants have an aging line, no LB’s, no safeties, and are the least complete team in that division. Therefore, they will finish last. Is that better jackass?
Oh and I hate Eli

Nokoolaid,
Hopkins is an Ass, he didn’t like McNabb because Donovan didn’t kiss his ass when he came to the practice facility to see them practice, so He felt slighted.
As for the rest of your post, Thanks for bieng Honest. I know that The Eagles have not won the Superbowl and it’s been a LONG time since the Boys even sniffed it. just lets worry about the season at hand. The cowboys look pretty stacked for this season , but as you said you still have Wade.

Anyone Realize that Campbell and McNabb had a very similar year last year? Campbell threw for more yards had more completions and 2 fewer td’s. McNabb is a Huge “Name” to add to the roster but he is a fading star. The Eagles saw this and decided to go with the Future Star vs the Fading one. Thats all! Good Luck with the Skins Donnie.

Dawkins should speak with Bernard “The Executioner” Hopkins. Hopkins should be the poster child for why the Eagles dumped McNabb. Apparently, he’s been lobbying for awhile to see this happen. I wonder how Bernard feels about McNabb still being in the same division, lol.
As a Cowboys fan, I wish others would just settle down. Those trophies of glories past are getting dusty up on the shelves. Stop showing them off like the past equals the present. We’re still stuck with that fat bastard Wade Phillips and have only managed one playoff win recently.

will be an interesting season in philly. when teams like the rams, browns, raiders, and lions make decisions to keep them buried in the basement of the NFL for season after season, nobody cares but for their fans.
when a team like the eagles makes a questionable move, their fan base can be a little more vocal come game day. hope the eagles go 10-6 or better this year, anything less is going to cause blood in the water..

dawk is dead wrong. he should worry about his own teams problems. jason campbell threw for more completions at a higher percentage for more yards then mcnabb did last year. campbell did this with far less talent around him and an inferior coaching staff. mcnabb WAS a dynamic player when he was able to move around. unfortunately in the nfl a qb that moves around cant stay healthy. mcnabb hasnt moved around for a few years now. hes a good qb still, but not a dynamic, game changing player.

tighthead — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 06:21:47 +0000

I am sick of fans saying that if the eagles don’t win the superbowl than trading Mcnabb was the biggest mistake ever. Mcnabb had 11 good, sometimes great years in philly. Which lead to several Div titles and 1 nfc championship and Zero superbowl wins. So he had a fair run. The eagles had 3 QBs comming off contract at the end of 2011 so something had to give.There can only be one starter and they all want to start. So one gets the job and will recieve an extention (Kolb) one gets traded for more then market value to a team where he will start(Mcnabb) and the other one is the greatest passing running back of all time and will finish out his deal or be traded for trash like he is worth(Vick).

Don’t know why my posts aren’t showing up but bottomline, fat coach (andy reid) still in love with 80′s offense (west coast) and hasn’t adapted to teams that have countered it by implementing the 3-4 defense equals reason why Eagles will never win.

It’s funny…an Eagles fan posted above that they’ve been calling for Reid’s head since 2002. Yet he’s still there; and McNabb is gone. From what I’ve seen, Reid is the one who should be gone.

Look on the bright side, Vick will be the Eagles QB by mid-season. The ineffectiveness of Kolb or a injury will place the ball in #7 hands. So, when it happens, if anyone of those season ticket holders would like to sell their tix, I’m available.
All those Vick haters that was ready to jump off the bridge because the Eagles acquired #7, will end up rooting for him.

Reid said a couple months ago McNabb was his guy. this seems like a front office move. How many wins does Kolb have in the NFC East? Yeah, he had a couple 300 yard games. The defenses were probably scheming for McNabb. Aren’t they different types of QBs?

No doubt the Raiders are in shambles and will be for quite some time, but, Donavan who didnt want to go to the Raiders was put to shame by the Raiders in Phily during the regular season, the skills are deminishing indeed. The skins had better draft a qb at 4 or they will regret this trade for a awhile. Shanahan up to the same ole tricks that didnt pan out well for him in Denver.

Kolb will have to win a Super Bowl for this deal to be a success for Reid and the Eagles. The guy Kolb is replacing took them to 5 NFC championships and a Super Bowl in an 8 year span and they still thought he was a failure. I wish Kolb luck, he is going to need it dealing with that fan base.

I love when jerk offs like gradkowski have comments like “I hate Eli so the Giants will finish last in the division”. You sir are an idiot. Any true fan can admit when another team is better than the team they like. And I’m sure Eli has more rings than your teams qb.
