You can't argue with how the Patriots went outside their locker room and stocked up on playmakers last year. It certainly helped to have Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth, Wes Welker and Adalius Thomas making plays for them all year.

I'm surprised that anyone would have a problem with me, or anyone else in the organization, expressing a desire to bring in more quality players. We were 8-8. There is room for improvement. This is a competitive sport. It's about putting together the best players, the best team, and giving yourself the best chance to win.

We didn't disrespect anyone when we traded for Takeo Spikes or signed Kevin Curtis last year. I don't think the Patriots were being disrespectful to Troy Brown or Reche Caldwell when they brought in Moss, Stallworth and Welker. Over the past few years, when the 49ers added Nate Clements, the Seahawks added Julian Peterson, the Giants added Plaxico Burress, the Colts added Adam Vinatieri, it was in an effort to add playmakers. In each case the team identified a way to improve and they took action.

I don't think that's being disrespectful to any of my teammates. It's certainly not my intention. I bet that anyone who wants to see the Eagles win – from Mr. Lurie, to the entire locker room, to every Eagles fan who bleeds green would agree.

Yeah that says nothing controversial. Thanks for posting it Matty. I love how the media tends to overhype quotes.

I think that this is bad timing too, because there isn't a certainty that McNabb will be their quarter back next year. They drafted Kolb for a reason. Eagles fans dislike McNabb too, beacuse he is bad under pressure and is a baby. Thoughts?

he can't win. He's not kidding,they have no threat on offense outside of westbrook.

Re: McNabb's Blog

Every year, Westbrook runs over the Redskins. He even did it this year! lol. Mad props to him though, and I like McNabb. McNabb is still one of the best QBs in the league. He started his rookie season with the Eagles in 1999, and only fell out of the playoffs twice. Come on now? He can't be that far from Brady/Manning.
