    Eagles have been 10-6 last two years with worse teams.

    I'm talking about the d-line not the linebackers or I would have said linebackers not d-line ...those 3 might be awesome but there's a reason these teams that can stop the run have those run stuffers In middle. That's not a linebacker problem ...

    Fletcher cox is one of the best in the business and Benny Logan is looking like a monster. Tough to say a team in a 3-4 can't stop the run if you aren't considering the lbs

    NFL is a passers game. If you can't stop the pass you can't win. Teams will be throwing the ball deep and in slanting routes behind the front seven. This is the blueprint to destroy the Eagles defense.

    Might be right. Gonna depend on these two free agent secondary signings that did well in Seatte. Will make or break it

    Defense looked good last night. The key is always going to be Bradford for Philly. He stays healthy, they will win a LOT of games. If it's Sanchez, they win 8 or 9. The defense is improved, they have some of the best special teams in the league, it's up to the QB. All they need is Bradford to make a half-dozen good throws a game and it will pressure the opposing offense into turning the ball over. That hurry-up play calling is tough to handle.

    If they had a reliable QB they would be neck and neck with the Cowboys...unfortunately for Eagle fans they have Bradford and Sanchez.

    Again, what did you think happened last year? They got destroyed, and still won 10 games. They added Maxwell and drafted some young guys. They CAN'T have a worse secondary than last year.

    Eagles will go nowhere.
    3rd place NFC east best they can hope for.
    probably no wild card.

    Eagles are the laughing stock of the NFL

    they fell for the trap dallas set and actually picked up a selfish running back like murray

    murray is not a winner and a born loser. He asked romo to give him his money to stay lol.

    he is nothing without the dallas line and romo's leadership

    Lmao at the Philly haters.

    Chip Kelly is a mad genius.

    Eagles Offensive Line is statistically better than Dallas when it comes to yards before contact over the last two seasons. This year they will be top 3 at least in NFL.

    They got so many weapons on offense. Jordan Matthews is a cousin of Jerry Rice and has those freak genes.

    Defense stacked up this year and front 7 is great.

    Special teams one of the best in NFL.

    if you win some superbowls it's all good, however they have a lot of work to do to catch up to dallas

    philly needs at least 5 superbowl wins to be spoken in the same breath as the cowboys.. any idiot knows this

    Were barely half way through the preseason and we are got some good message board material. I really think the Bradford trade really hurts the Eagles. I hope I am proven wrong and he stays healthy all year. I also think letting Murray go was a big mistake by the Boys. They have a great O line again but do they have anyone that can carry that load? We need to bookmark this thread and revisit it during the season.

    people underestimate the significance of coaching and recruiting players who fit your system

    More teams should be opting to have the same head coach and GM

    Kelly has made sure he's brought in players who fit his system, he's smart

    Eagles will be up there, QB play will determine whether they can make the next step

    It's 2015, not 1995. Cowboys overachieved last year, let's not crown them just yet. That division is wide open.

    Eagles will beat the bad teams by 30, the average teams by 2 TDs, and lose to the upper echelon squads. I'm thinking 11 wins and a playoff win.

    Yes. A regular season win is much better than a playoff win.

    Who cares about the playoffs anyways??

    Sounds about right.. still a year or two away from a legit contender. Should still have a nice season though.

Falcons have the D Coordinator for Seattle as the head coach and Kyle Shannahan running the zone offense. The Falcons starting D hasnt given up a TD this pre-season but that doesnt mean shit, just like the Eagles blowing out the Ravens doesnt mean shit. So many unknowns here...Get a grip people.
