Question for our Eagle fans

None that I know of. But we do have our share of idiots.

It really hasn't been brought up much that I know of and I listen to Philly sports radio quite a bit but c0r and JGigs would probably know better. It never even crossed my mind honestly. I appreciated what Garcia did for us but never viewed him as starter material. McNabb pisses me off at times but I will always be a fan of his.

My PhillyPhan buddy is WAY more down on Reid than he is on McNabb.

same here......bad thing is that I think it will be Reid that stays and Mcnabb that goes. I think they would still owe Andy something like 11 million if they fire him and the Eagles are to cheap to do that and then pay a new coach. Maybe they will prove me wrong.....

But the next question is.....who would you want to replace him?

Despite his failings to win the "big game", he is a very successful coach.

And if you unload McNabb....same question.

The grass isn't always greener.

Personally, I would love to see Spagnola from the Giants come back to Philly. I also always hoped Jim Harbaugh would get promoted to the job when Reid left but Baltimore signed him away. I also have always been a Gruden fan and think he would be a great fit for the team and something tells me he would love to come back to Philly. No way it will happen because he would butt heads with the Eagles president too much.

Reid has been a successful coach and I appreciate what he has done for the team. It has been 10 years and his bone headed game time decisions, refusal to run the ball, or admit that the lack of a #1 receiver has been an issue that needed to be addressed has taken it's toll on me. Bottom line, when the game is on the line the last thing I want is him making the decisions. I know the grass isn't always greener but I am at the point where I really want to find out.

And worst part is the one year you did have a no.1 reciever (Owens), you guys made it to the Superbowl. But he left a sour taste in the organization's mouth.

      TE group

      What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)

      Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
