Looking Back: Preseason Predictions

As you mention, D'Boyz, Philly is great when they have Mcnabb, but if he goes down, that puts alot of pressure on Westbrook. NcNabb, Westbrook, and Owens are all difference makers and are heavily relied on. There is so much that went into keeping them (well maybe not Owens,) that there was nothing left as far as depth for the Eagles. I'd rather have good depth at QB and RB, than to put all my marbles into the #1 positions.

yeah but somethimes you can't cover all your flaws with depth look at us we have servicible backups at wr, rb but have no depth at qb (thank god bledsoe can stand a beating), Oline (our mayor problem) and Safety heck we don't even have a quallity starter at FS.

It's the same with you; had Moss went down instead of trash or patten you might be singing a different tune.

And in the case of Tiki they have the rookie Jacobs that there was a lot of fuzz before the season but hasn't put the numbers and if tiki had gone down I don't believe jacobs would have produce enough to be the diference.

I agree about Moss...that would've been the same as Tiki going down with an injury. That is one area that I believe we still need improve on, although I will say that having Cooley helps us tremendously in the receiver/tight end category.
