Jeremy Maclin - Philadelphia Eagle

I think Mussa was referring to the coaching, which may actually be worse with JJ gone.

this is true

Owens
Pinkston
Mitchell
Lewis
McMullen

Jackson
Curtis
Avant
Baskett
Maclin

Hands down, I take this years group over 04's...The corps is 100X deeper, and each guy plays a role in the offense. Lewis and McMullen were trainwrecks, and Freddie wasn't much better. Aside from Owens, the XXXIX team had an awful roster of WR's.

Yet somehow they made it to the Super Bowl without Me-O.

If that team had even competent receivers it would have likely won multiple Lombardi's.  Sad that it's taken Reid over 10 years to realize that and finally get some weapons on the team.

too bad that by the time he finally did, he's now got an aging qb, rb and revamped offensive line.

McNabb is younger than Peyton. His age isn't a problem. And if by revamped, you mean better, then you're right on point.

[Sgt PSN]

mcnabb's not old, but he's not young either.  and his previous injuries will play a small role in his overall performance from now until he retires.  less mobility, more aches and pains, etc.  and considering that this revamped o-line hasn't played a single down off football together, then i refuse to say that they are any better (or worse for that matter) than what we've been accustomed to seeing for nearly 10 years. 

[Rome]

Pronouncing this offensive line as better than the one that played last year is premature to say the least.    I'm hopeful like I am every other year but let's not go whipping out our dicks just yet over it.

[DH]

I guess I say that because as last year progressed and I thought about what could be in 09' with the OL, I never thought they would be able to replace Tra and Runyan w Andrews and Peters. But you're right; cant say theyre better yet.

But farg you, Ill whip my meatcicle out whenever I want.

[Rome]

Beermonkey's Mom would appreciate that, no doubt.

this is so true and something ive been saying since the day peters was acquired...theres almost no chance the tackles are as good as tra and runyan...why would anyone think other wise...and the line as whole is going to have big time growing pains...hopefully by the end of the year they are solid and next year i would expect them to be one of the best in the league...but for the at least the first half of this season i feel like they are going to be trouble

[General_Failure]

It would be real nice if Andrews the Younger would grow a farging spine so they could actually get some time in together.

Very true.

As long as they are gelling by 11/1 against the Gnats they should be alright.  The first 6 games (with a bye mixed in there) are a cake walk compared to the rest of the schedule.

pinky led philadelphia eagle wr's in receptions for the 2000's

again he led an nfl franchise in most receptions for a wr for an entire decade

if you think he was a piece of shtein or the worst wr in team history or even that he sucked then you dont know football

what he was was a brutally average wr totally out of place on a team that was pathetically weak at his position who got caught up in a perfect storm of hatred by an ignorant section of a fanbase

So what, he was no.1 for the worst wr corps in the league. Name me a single pro-bowl reciever from that era? You'd be hard pressed to find one who would have started on any other team.
