I see your point...but if there is anything consistent about the Eagles, it's that they beat the Buccanears...2 times in a row in the playoffs and earlier this year in a playoff like game. Also, for now we're talking about playoff positioning within the conference. Ok...we're 1-3 in AFC, but 7-0 in the NFC, which is the main concern at this point. We'll worry about the AFC again when we get to the Super Bowl. I think that if the Eagles secure a first round bye, we'll be a pretty good lock for the super bowl birth...it'll give McNabb more time to prepare (well he may be back for week 17), and a home game at the Vet in it's last year will be insane...But of course, the Eagles have let me down before, and nothing is safe in the NFL these days...it's still way to early to talk, I probably jinxed them...oh well
