Easily. D truly died the day we let Dawk get away and it hasn't recovered since.

The whole Andy Reid regime went into a downward spiral when after the 08-09 NFCCG run they decided that instead of improving the Dline, LBs, and adding to the secondary they needed to let go of veterans (Dawkins), promote rookies who hadn't earned a spot, and instead complete tear apart the OLINE (which allowed the fewest sacks in Eagles history).

They have been paying the price for those mistakes since.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

I'm out till they lose to the Bengals.

SOme of the picks are freak plays. I have no idea how the defenders come down with it. that last one for example. He jumped way the fuck up there and got it. Was still a bad decision by Brees. But yeah if the defense wasnt so happy to give up 60 yard plays, Brees wouldnt feel pressured to force it. If he had ANY security behind him whatsoever a lot of this risk taking wouldnt have to happen.
Sometimes slowing the game down with your running game is just necessary in order to give your D a bigger break. That's more of a coaching/game plan issue though. They could afford to run it more, that's for sure.
