It reminds me of the Eagles' runs in 02 and 03, 02 with McNabb hurt, and 03 with that come from behind whatnot.

The difference is the 06 Eagles are WAY better than either the 02 or the 03 team.

But like those teams, they win the division again this year because they have zero competition. The Redskins were supposed to be a 12 win team and now they are a 5-6 win team. The Giants have done their classic late season collapse. The Cowboys are a good team, but were never better than Phili.

I'm sorry, but when a team wins a division by going on the road in the division 3 straight weeks and winning, they didn't win it as much as the other teams lost it. In theroy, each game from Week 14 on should have been progressively more exausting. We should have beaten them the way we played, but the Giants and Cowboys have no excuse! The Eagles deserve the division because 3 teams underachieve.

Jeff Garcia has been a great QB for years, and his skills are still comprable to that of McNabb's, but I don't see anyway that ANY team can get by the Bears, exception to the law of "Any Given Sunday".
