Phils were 1 and done. The Birds were awful till late.  This year I&#039;m much more reserved.  WE NEED THE BIRDS TO GO DEEP. After what the Phils have done to us WE SOOO NEED THIS!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“The Eagles haven’t won a playoff game since 2008″

But they sure have won some regular seaeon games within the division right Eagle fans?

Regular season wins are like championships in Philly. Point out no Lonbardi’s &amp; no playoff wins since 08 &amp; you get “but, but but…we beat the Jints, Cowboys, ‘Skins”. 

“The Eagles haven’t won a playoff game since 2008.&quot;

And lets not forget, or a championship since 1960.

Classic]]></description>

Every other team in the NFC East yes even the skin have multi trophies 

The only Dynasty you will see in Philly is a place in Chinatown Ching Dynasty open tuesday to sunday 12 -11 serving a new dish peking Eagle its a tough bird with a lot of fat and tends to loss its taste when it really matters.

It is the perfect meal prior to killing dogs

		<description><![CDATA[I like the ranking, but a few points:  

1.  Calling Vick a weakness is not just &quot;not entirely accurate,&quot; but absolutely stupid.  True, he didn&#039;t have a great year.  But he was also injured a lot and dealing with a lot of things out of his control (Jackson&#039;s contract, Maclin&#039;s illness, Castillo&#039;s defense, etc).  Based on Vick&#039;s comments about his efforts this offseason, there is every reason to believe he&#039;ll be a strength.  At *worst* he&#039;s an unknown.  

2.  As the previous poster said, how is Shady McCoy not one of the biggest strength.  Dude is a BEAST.  

3.  Jackson is not given enough &quot;strength&quot; credit.  His contract clearly affected him, and both parties handled it poorly.  But there is no denying his talent.  I can&#039;t see him having anything other than a fantastic year.  

4.  &quot;Playing in the NFC East doesn’t make life easy and the rest of the schedule is far from a cakewalk&quot; 

I don&#039;t get this statement.  The Eagles came within minutes of sweeping the Giants last year (@Giants won with VY at the helm), and swept BOTH Dallas and the Redskins...even with their very subpar defense and other personnel issues.  I don&#039;t see that the Giants have improved much despite their SB victory.  The Redskins should be considerably better with RGIII, but they have a long way to go.  Dallas will likely be improved, but I don&#039;t know how much.  The Eagles should be the odds-on favorite to win the division.  Don&#039;t forget, the SB champs were 1 game ahead of them in the playoff race, and finished the regular season 9-7.   

5.  The hatred of the Eagles amongst PFT commenters is pretty stunning.  56% said they were rated &quot;too high.&quot;  Really?  Based on what?  They are EXACTLY where they should be.]]></description>
