Re: NFC East holdouts/contract problems

I think the difference between McNabb's stats in the following areas are directly related to TO being added to their roster last year:

2003:
PCT: 57.5
TD: 16
Rate: 79.6

2004:
PCT: 64.0
TD: 31
Rate: 104.7

I know, I know... the Eagles have made it to the NFC Championship for four straight... I know there's more to being a Championship caliber team than simply the McNabb/TO chemistry. However, I think a big part of their success last year was due to that chemistry, and the fact that defenders had to account for TO, giving Westbrook good production.

My assertion is that the chemistry between McNabb and TO is gone now, and McNabb's numbers will be closer to his 2003 stats, leaving the NFC East open to more competive teams now.
