I understand Saints fans and Cowboys fans hating on the Eagles, I do.

But like you said, making every signing out to be, "THERE'S NO WAY THEY CAN HANDLE THESE EGOS!!!!!" is absurd.

Yeah, how are the egos of Johhnie Lee Higgins, Ryan Harris and Cullen Jenkins going to fit into a room together? Sure to implode!

Don't take this wrong RYNO. BUT at least teh Eagles have true superstars instead of what the Cowboys have had even though ESPN called the Boys the most talented team in the league the last few years.

its not about superstars dukke, its about TEAM.


I know from watching Dallas so many years, you can't just go out and sign tons of new guys and expect it to work out perfectly. it rarely does. They aren't just adding a piece here or there, they are adding tons of new guys. THere is a short training camp this year and free agents still aren't allowed to practice yet because the CBA is not officially signed.

I'm not saying they aren't stacked with talent--they are, but they are putting undue pressure on themselves by being in the media eye as much as they are.

Something I've always wished Jerry Jones would back away from a bit...

I didn't mean it like, "Oh they are so jealous."

I meant that they are rivals... Dallas moreso, but Saints are conference rivals.

Even still, Saints have added the most combustile, problem-child signing of either team... hope their lockerroom doesn't implode!

They covered themselves by signing the best DT on the market yesterday.

Imo, the Eagles signed 2 potential impact players. Obviously Nnamdi, then possibly Babin if he can get a pass rush.

The rest are a bunch of guys that their old teams didnt want, with the possible exception of DRC. And i've seen him get carved up plenty of times.

Ronnie Brown peaked 5 years ago.

New Orleans picked up two DTs better than Jenkins

Vince Young of all people talking about the dream team is laughable.

The most important guy they need to sign is Jackson.

I am picking the Cowboys to win the East. Ryan is going to make a HUGE difference. It might take a few weeks but I think Dallas has a really good year.

This is about the DUMBEST POST EVER ON the MSB. The 90's Cowboys were built by the draft and ONE TRADE more than anything else. Please stop posting.

Why can't the Eagles? I think the media is full of shite on this one


Are they buying a Super Bowl? There is a salary cap. They can't spend more than 10% more than the cheapest team in the league
