I have to agree Paul. Unfortunately, he may have to be a cap casualty next year. They need draft picks bad.

OL – DJ Fluker Alabama 6-6 335 Right Tackle (Move Herremanns to R.Guard)
OG – Chance Warmack Alabama 6-4 330 Left Guard (replace Danny Watkins)
OLB- Jarvis Jones Georgia 6-3 245 (Replace Akeem Jordan)
Jonathan Brown Illinois 6-3 240 Cut Brian Rolle)
MLB – Manti Te’o Notre Dame 6-1 250 (Cut Casey Matthews)
CB- Jonathan Banks Miss St 6-2 210 (Can back up DRC)
Xavier Rhodes Florida State 6-3 215 (Potentially could replace Nnamdi)
S- Robert Lester Alabama 6-2 210
TJ McDonald USC 6-2 210
DT- Jonathan Hankins Ohio State 6-4 332
Jonathan Jenkins Georgia 6-4 350(Either replaceM. Patterson)

Gcobb, you are a knowledgeable football man, but wtf, heaping all this praise on Reid when he hasn’t won jack, do not discount Reid’s incompetence in 14 years is failing to reach expectations

I disagree, The problem is that Vick is smarter than the coaches becuase hes doing everything by the book and it sucks.. Hes just starting to realize that and is getting angry he changed hes body and mechanics to their liking.. DO WHAT YOU DO MIKE VICK . DONT TRUST NOBODY

Sounds like a lame excuse to me.. Every time the Eagles go out to the Desert, they play like shit.. Strength becoming a Weakness….The Eagles got smacked around by a hungrier, more physical and focused Team and Coaching Staff than the Eagles, as simple as that…

Holding on to the ball for 4-5 seconds isn’t the complete problem. Putting Nick Foles in against some of the better defenses in the league isn’t the answer. The problem is really the same persistent problem this offense has had for the last 13 seasons…LeSean McCoy got the ball 4 times in the first half I believe…that’s just absurd and particularly so given that the Cardinals pass rush was effective against O-Line and other blockers. As I have said and several others have said the Eagles could use McNabb. The Eagles could also use Plaxico Burress…height/length gets a lot of players open that wouldn’t typically be considered open enough to throw to pretty consistently.

He reads defenses the way an illiterate reads a novel! HE DOESN’T! Again, I know he will win us SOME games but his flaws are easy to expose…and since that giants game a couple years ago every DC in the league knows the plan.

Paulmans right. Vick turns the ball over everytime he gets sneazed on. And Andy Reid come on. If the offensive lines banged up and we are missing our starting receiver why not run the ball. Why are we running play action on 3rd and 15. Why are we running play action if we arent running the ball at all. Why arent we running the ball at all. Why isnt fitz being double teamed. Why not use the same offensive balance used against the ravens. Why why and why. Gcobb please talk to me. I need answers.

Botton Line, Vick is too slow to decipher real-game time info to make the proper reads and decisions with the Football. He is not smart/bright enough to handle this Offense.. It is what it is.. Biggest thing I see with Vick is that he has to wait to he sees a Receiver open before he passes the ball and that’s just doesn’t work at the NFL Level.. Itt’s about having confidence in your Recivers, your Arm and Accuracy and throwing and leading a Reciever to a spot to make a safe catch while still moving forward.. I am really starting to hate that Vick is the QB of the Eagles.. I like the man for what he has come back from , but I hate the way he plays QB.. Tired of the Streetball/Amatuerish brand of Football we see from him..
