Well, yeah...It's Super Bowl or bust, and the pressure is squarely on the shoulders of Reid and McNabb this year, which is really tough. McNabb doesn't have the "****ty receiver" excuse anymore as he has a perrenial Pro-bowler in Owens. The defense is muched improved with Kearse anchoring the D-line and their spiritual leaders in Trotter and Douglas returning. The RB and DB situations are the ones I have concerns about, but I'm hoping it doesn't slow us down too much. I expect great things as does the whole of Philadelphia. The NFC doesn't look that intimidating to me. There is a lot of hype behind Minnesota and Seattle, but I have a hard time believing that either of those teams is better than the Eagles. I have no idea how I can still believe in this team despite the heartbreak of three years in a row, but here I am, back on the wagon...The Giants will get pummeled tomorrow anyways...
