Vincent is a physical corner, but Taylor is the exact opposite. Both Sheldon Brown and Lito Sheppard are more physical than Taylor, but not quite as much as Vincent.

Dang you really know your team.......I just know that secondary played some serious smash mouth football, except when their corners were out. At least I didn't see it. Maybe I just didn't watch enough of their games, but the games I did see were no where near as physical as the last game of the year or the games from the previous years.

The league has changed the rules for this upcoming season to the advantage of the receiver, so there will probably be less contact all around from now on.

Don't forget: We'll be lucky to gain a yard this year!

Seriously the Eagles are the team to beat in the NFC East regardless of their additions/subtractions. Their corners did a good job while Taylor and Vincent were out last year and Kearse will only make them look better. Having an actual receiver can only help McNabb. They'll be tough to beat...but "In Gibbs we Trust" right!?

Was that Gardner who was body slammed in Week 17? I thought that was a penalty. I was wrong after waiting for the flag until we got the next play going.

[ .[/quote]i respectfully disagree with everything you just wrote. you can't use coles as a comparison when talking about the buzzards being better. TO is better than thrash. the iggles had no secondary last year, and their D-line was banged up all year too, but they found a way to win.[/quote]

Of course To is better than thrash! but my point is TO is no better than Coles. And they really dont have a secondary now, we do. My point was we really improved in alot of areas that the eagles didnt. Do we forget how excited we were ,when we were signing the big names? It didnt work for us,and i dont think it will work for the eagles. If the freak plays in 5 or 6 games (his avg.) was he worth the money? What if everyone triples TO and the rest of the receivers still struggles? Are they gonna run the ball with, whats his name? I just think after 3 yrs. they are due for a let down, and when they do I WILL BE HERE!!!
