because last year i said i liked there chances... and because prior to the season 2 years ago i said "within 3 years the eagles will win the superbowl"... this is year 3....
my reasoning-
donovan mcnabb is simply the most important player in the NFL... he cannot be replaced... i know i know, marshall faulk... but guess what? faulk was replaces very well in indy... faulk is even replaced well with canidate in the rams backfield...
the running game will be solid... duce is healthy, his foot isnt even a concern, nor is his shoulder.. he is 100% and if thats not enough they have levens now... solid player and wont have to risk a lot of injuries with being the main ball carrier.... now, thats fine and dandy, right? not so fast... brian westbrook was a god at villanova and looks good so far (from what i read and from the limited plays i saw of him)... he is fast, kinda like a dunn style back (who they tried to get in FA)... the league should be happy buck got hurt, or else this was gonna be child abuse!
tight end is a 2 time probowler, simple as that... the OL is in tact this year, no new injuries like what happened to bubba miller last year... miller is gone and fraley just keeps on playing hard...
the wide receivers... i know i know, NOBODY thinks these guys are any good... but the fact of the matter is last year was there first season with donovan... and look what happened when they got on track!!! ask any tampa fan, or giant fan (even mouthfulofcock)... ask the bears fans... donovan is deadly and the group of WR's is better than last year... a year older, a year wiser... and a little deeper (freddie milons)... freddie mitchell is the key here though, if he improves and makes himself more of a threat, this offense is not just pretty good, its awesome.
DEFENSE...
this will be the third straight season they are the best defense in football... they were better than baltimore, better than the bears... THE BEST IN FOOTBALL!!! teams kick FG's against them... teams get beat up...
trotter is gone? so what!!! they actually got BETTER with kirkland... trotter was on his way out last year (hence no contract). trotter makes some bad decisions, yes he is awesome but he costs the team yards here and there... usually his angle is off and it allows a fast back to go by him (ask rams fans)...
they loss mike caldwell... 90% of you would say "who?" my point exactly.. mike was a decent player but not GOOD! shawn barber is better than caldwell and i actually think quinton caver is too.. i like caver but eagles people dont think he is improving enough... when he played he pressured people...
The dline is banged up but derrick burgess is going to be the biggest surprise in football this year... he will have a chance to destroy some teams... simon next to him and douglas on the other end is gonna draw too much attention for the offenses to block burgess well...
secondary? hahahahahaha, taylor, vincent, dawkins, and bishop!! thats fucking devastating!!! and they drafted lewis and sheppard... they are going to smother receivers... my only hope is that someone beats out wallace for the 3rd CB spot... he plays stupid.
special teams is good with westbrook and mitchell...
god damn, the ONLY weak spot anyone could point out is the WR's and just wait.... just wait.....
