Garcia - Eagle WR's seem like clones

[Eagles 3x]

Well I'm not arguing that point. One clearly has more talent than the other, but if the backup QB is making comments about how all of the receiver look exactly the same, Brown obviously hasn't blown past the competition like his fan club would have you believe...

Thats it. One blurb from Garcia is the end all and be all for the Eagles! The season is over! We're finished. I had such high hopes for you Reggie, but Jeff & rjs are the voice of reason. Oh well, what could have been.

This is the problem, you guys pick and choose the things you read and hear and end up believing whatever the hell you want. I WATCHED this team last year, as did all of you. I know what I saw. You guys seem to be of the mindset that last year didn't count. That somehow the injuries and the TO situation make last year's zesty performance by the healthy non-TO players a non-factor. I don't believe any of that nonsense. Last year happened and I don't see anything to make me believe that this team can improve by 5 games this year.

I don't see how you can be of that opinion, when Spads and Co. say otherwise. I mean, come on, what else do you need? They would totally admit that team is in bad shape at a few positions if that were in fact the case.

Totally.

Duh.

[Phanatic]

I am optomistic that the defense will be improved and keep the team in just about every game they play.

I am discouraged by the offensive side of the ball but who knows really.

At this point I am willing to admit that I have no idea how the Eagles are going to do this year.

What I do know is that if they do well I will be very drunk. If they don't do well I will be equally drunk. Just the difference between a happy or miserable drunk.

An extremely reasonable post.

Expect to be banned, or mocked in some way.

I expect nothing less and say... "thank you sir may I have another"

You act like most people here expect this team to win the Super Bowl this season, everybody knows there are question marks with this team.  The reason I believe this team can possibly win five more games than it did last season is because there are still a lot of veterans on this team that know how to win.  Heck if Reid commits to running this team should win at least two more than it did last season.   Bottom line this season getting back to the playoffs would be a giant step in the right direction.

This is the problem, you pick and choose the things you read. I thought we were discussing  Reggie Brown's possible improvement this year. I WATCHED the games last year and was impressed with what he did with the opportunities he had. Unlike a lot of the young Eagles WRs he actually got some playing time, and under the circumstances I thought he did very well. I honestly think that the more playing time he gets the better he will be. I'm hoping that we are all very happy with him by mid-season.
Unfortunatly, the way things are right now, I don't see a 5 game improvement either. Fortunately, I hope I'm wrong.
Whether or not we improve by 5 games, I still think Reggie will have a very good year.

Well, ok then. If you insist, just for you SunnyCakes baby, !!!!!!!!!!!!!

This team getting back to the playoffs would be a HUGE step in the right direction, but I think you're overestimating the mental capacity of the other people on this board. Look at the predictions for this team's record in 2006, I see a lot of 10-6, 11-5 and 12-4 predictions. I'll eat my shoe if this team goes 12-4. Hoenstly, I'd be thrilled out of my mind if they can win 10 games. I expect 9-7. And I expect to be fairly content with that because that's about where they should end up. Can't expect much more and can't expect much less.

[Feva]

11-5 ain't that dramatic a difference from 9-7.

(outside of it probably meaning playoffs or not... but strictly in the numbers sense... not too big a diff.  2 freakin games.)

[Eagles 3x]

11-5, 9-7 two diff speculations on the upcoming year. ehh.
The numbers to worry about are last years 0-6. That HAS to be changed this year. I desperately need someone to convince me that it can be at least 4-2 this year.

so after the superbowl, you did see things that made you believe that they could drop by 7 games in 2005?

[rjs246]

Anyone remember me talking about TO before the season last year? Anyone?

I didn't see a 7 game drop, but I definitely saw problems.

I think 10-6 is a reasonable expectation.  12-4 with the strength of schedule and the resurgence of the NFC East would be highly unlikely at best.
