Sorry ytp, the Falcons are not part of the NFC bEast(i don't believe that) so they don't matter. Anyways, it's time for part 2 of my new series called
some hero: Memoirs of an Eli Manning fan <3 . Today i will be sharing my thoughts on the on paper champions, the Dream Team the Eagles:
Ugh, unlike the Cowboys i can't stand the Eagles. The most hyped up team in the past decade(or it feels like it). Their trophy case is filled to the brim with paper championships and off season awards. Anyways as expected, the Eagles are supposdly the 3rd best team in the NFL going into next season. Why? Because they crushed the powerhouses Jets, Dolphins, Cowboys and Redskins(yes the Redskins!) one after the other to end the season. Which clearly is enough to prove that they are position by position the best team in the NFL. Well the reason for all this hype is because of how overrated the players in the team are. The Eagles, player for player, are the most overrated team in the NFL. Including the most overrated QB, WR and LT along with several other in the top 5 in the overrated chart. Including Nnamdi "i played in the AFC West my whole career which is proof that i am a beast" Asomugha, Jason "this is a passing league. The running back position is extinct" Babin and Jeremy "ill have a breakout season THIS year" Maclin. Vick as a passer is good in his best day while average as a whole. The fact that the dude can't play a full season also keeps him in the average category. He stops running? Well guess what? He becomes a joke to stop and even the undersized Eagles DEs would be able to have a party slapping his passes down. Had 1 good year and is considered a beast for some reason. Easily the most overrated QB. Desean Jackson is one of the most average WRs in the league while getting as much praise if not more praise than guys who make him look like a joke. Had a couple of great games and suddenly turned great. Not even a top 15 receiver and i would take Cruz or Dez "i have lots of POTENTIAL" Bryant over the Eagles receivers. Since he is injured i'll just leave Jason "lol i'm a RT" Peters alone. However, their failure has to be because of the coaching right? While their coaching is far from the best, their failure had more to do with the fact that most of their players are vastly overrated and their best players are made out of glass.
The Eagles best player offensively is McCoy. Let that sink in. Their best player is going to be a back up for Jacksonville in 4 years. Great, that's how you build a dynasty! Defensively, their best player is The Cole Train. Got nothing but respect for him though. Both of them are injury prone. Mostly because the Eagles front office has a love affair with runts that are a bad hit away from derailing their "SB aspirations". Vick, McCoy and Desean are supposed to last 20 games? In what world?
The Eagles are just hype. Nothing more. An average team with several talented players that are not only vastly overrated but are bound to get injured sometime throughout the season. I dare anyone to find another team that is this hyped up even when they have proven for almost a decade that what they are doing doesn't work.
So don't get your hopes up folks, Vick/Desean/McCoy/Cole WILL get hurt this season and they will lose several games because of it. This is an overrated 8-8 team that at best will pull a 9-7 depending on the injury combination of their players. They are as likely if not moreso to go 7-9 or 6-10. All it takes is Vick thinking he is Newtons size.
That's it for day two of my new series. Tommorow i will share my opinion on the Skins.
The Ravens allowed 9.4 points per game all season and postseason (23 points allowed in 4 playoff games and people are leaving this out why exactly???), and if you take out the first three games which includes a fucking shutout, they allowed 7.8 points per game afterward. Anyone who thinks heading into a season that their team is about to rival this is a dumb fucking homer who should shut the fuck up forever and leave everybody alone
Awww!!! You read my posts!!! I'm about to cry! Everything i say is to try and please you! Now i know you are always thinking of me! Let's make up. All you have to do is admit you are a Cowboys homer and hate Eli because he is a Giant.
