Why?! I knew they were gonna make a bad choice for coach, but ****! Lovie, come to Oakland, we'll give you your money! The Bears were on the fence about even letting you extend your contract. They show no respect! Some assistant coaches make more than you, for heaven's sake! We love the chocolate face here!

I don't know, Jerry Jone LOVE Lovie from what I heard. I think if Chicago don't give the money Lovie deserve, he might a cowboy.

That's it, I'm turning off sports radio for the rest of the week.

All day, all night, all they have talked about for the passed 48 hours is Bill Parcells. He's gone, get over it!

Seriously. And they keep talking him up. Look at the facts, he's slid down every job since the 2nd title with the Giants. Pats to a loss in the Super Bowl, then he bolts on the team. Jets to a loss in the championship game, then he bolts. Cowboys to ZERO playoff wins, then he bolts. Seems to me it plays out like this, No LT, No Simms, No titles.

still, he took three different teams to conference games, four different teams to the playoffs. That's quite a career.

Of course you are, man. Embrace Philly. You want McNabb to come to St Louie or something? We'll trade you McNabb for, what's your QBs name again? Straight up. Deal? You can even report this some website. I'm close to Andy and his mom. He says he doesn't want McRibb. He likes his chicken tender, just like JGar.

Reports of Donovan McNabb's discontent with the Eagles aren't just greatly exaggerated, they are entirely fabricated, according to coach Andy Reid and the quarterback's agent, Fletcher Smith.

"I think people are making a lot of things up here that aren't true," Reid said yesterday in a conference call from Mobile, Ala.

"None of it is true," said Smith, also in Mobile attending Senior Bowl workouts.

Since Reid canceled a McNabb news conference that had been scheduled for Friday, Internet and newspaper reports have said the quarterback is unhappy with the Eagles. One said McNabb was in "a squabble" with the team about his rehabilitation from the knee surgery that cut short his 2006 season.

A rumor reported on a football Web site said that McNabb was, at some point, behind in his rehab and that he blamed trainer Rick Burkholder. The Web site said, "There's a school of thought" that Reid canceled McNabb's press conference, in part, because of "concerns that McNabb would blab about the brouhaha."

The report also said veterans such as Jeremiah Trotter and Jon Runyan had expressed support for Jeff Garcia to remain the Eagles' quarterback next season.

A newspaper story Tuesday said McNabb was unhappy because Reid did not allow him to travel to New Orleans for the Eagles' NFC divisional playoff game against the Saints. The story also said McNabb "may be getting a vibe that some in the organization prefer Garcia over him" and didn't like the way the Philadelphia media portrayed his mother, Wilma, after she filed a blog that expressed concern about how fans would feel about her son if the Eagles won the Super Bowl with Garcia.

Reid already was on the record as saying McNabb is the Eagles' quarterback next season as long as he has fully recovered from his knee surgery. Garcia, of course, could leave via free agency.

The head coach said he had no regrets about canceling McNabb's news conference.

"That's how it works," he said in reference to the recent stories. "No, I don't feel any different. I just hate to see people have to make things up that really aren't true."

Reid said there was no need to remind McNabb that he had the support of the head coach and the organization.

"He knows what's the truth and what isn't the truth," Reid said.

"It was my choice and not Donovan's choice" to cancel the news conference, he added. "I'm disappointed people are making things up."

Smith trashed the recent stories.

"None of these stories quoted him," Smith said. "They're all quoting sources close to Donovan. They claim to know what he thinks and what he's feeling. Who are these people? I don't know. I think there should be some level of responsibility in getting his side of the story before printing some of this stuff. It's sensationalism, and I guess it sells newspapers."

Smith said he believed that McNabb would share his thoughts with reporters before or during the Super Bowl. McNabb is expected to attend the Super Bowl as part of a Campbell's Soup promotion. Smith said he hadn't spoken to McNabb since flying to Mobile, but he insisted that nothing that had been written was a true reflection of his client's feelings.

"I'm absolutely comfortable saying that," Smith said.

It's not the philly fans who I hate the most but the reporters. Rumors abound every offseason and plenty of crap will abound just to grab the attention. Iverson is gone and the rest of the teams suck. So, the biggest star in our universe is McNabb. I hate reporters 'giving all sides of the story' when they clearly don't know what they are talking about. Every story of the Eagles rebound this year should begin and end with our resurgent running game and the defense trying like hell not to lose their jobs. JGar had very little to do with our success besides not turning over the ball. The game he had the highest passing yards this year was against Carolina for 300+ yards. He never went over 250 yards at all this season. He had 4 games where he never went over 200 yards, including the playoff game against the Giants.

Currently, around the area, plenty of ignorant 'football' fans like to debate that JGar is a better than McNabb. I want to smack each and every one of them. Local sports reporters are worse than ESPN. But, ESPN is comprised of a few good journalists and plenty of crap they pick up from local markets. Woody Paige, J Mariotti? Skip Bayless? Crap.

Not saying the man wasn't good. But IMO he gets a bit too much praise. Would have liked to see him actually finish the job at one of those three places or at least stick around long enough to try and see a job through.
 
jerry jones is a ****ing moron. he's interviewing Jason Garrett as an OC.

Wouldn't it make more sense to hire a HC first THEN let the HC hire his own staff?

He was 34-32 with the Cowgirls in four years with two playoff appearances.

Coughlin has gone 25-25 in three years with two playoff appearances.

One of these guys was supposed to not have a job this offseason, and it wasn't Parcells.

As far as McNabb... I am sure the Eagles would have already won an SB if they actually ran the ball when he is healthy.

But he won 2 Super Bowls, surely that makes him deserving of all the praise!

Sorry. Meant playoff games from last season.

Ben absolutely sucked in his first in the playoffs. If Herman Edwards was not such a horrible coach the Steelers would have lost to the Jets in their first game.

maybe you should wait til the cardinals, i dont know, win a few games next season before making these statements, the cardinals are labeled every year to be a potential "sleeper", "darkhorse", or "bustout" team, and it never happens

i'd still put the nfc east, south, and north above the west

:lol
Giants lost their best player. Cowboys lost their coach. Redskins are... well, the Redskins (who knows what they'll do). And the Eagles will be solid again, I'm guessing.

Atlanta has a new coach using a new system which has philosophies that are totally unrelated to their starting QB, who can't seem to stay out of trouble. That leaves Carolina, New Orleans and Tampa Bay as being potentially strong, but it doesn't look good for Tampa either.

The North is going to be godawful. Favre will be another year older and the Vikings just lost the best thing about their team (sorry Slo and Co. :( ). And of course there's the LIONS, who might break their 6-season streak of double digit losses next year, but it doesn't look good. And of course Chicago.

I just don't see how anyone, at this point, can say that any division will be stronger in the NFC than the West. The Rams are mediocre (sorry Soulja and Zep) as of now, with the Niners coming on strong to end the year. Seattle made the second round of the playoffs for the second yaer in a row-- after an injury-riddled season. And Arizona, who has tons of offensive talent, just got the best O-Line coach in the NFL to address the biggest problem they had this year.

I know what you're saying, how it's too early to start calling for next year, and that's your prerogative. But I just don't see how anyone who wants to play the predictions game can say that there's a division in the NFC which is poised to be stronger than the NFC West is next year.

What do Bears fans think of Ron Rivera? Is he just a puppet for Lovie or does he seem like a good fit for a head coach?

He interviewed with ESPN radio in Dallas, and he seemed really interested in the Dallas job.

I think Rivera will be a great fit for a head coach. He also trained under Jim Johnson in Philidelphia before become the Bears defensive coordinator. So he uses a really aggressive style of cover 2 defense and it has worked out very well the last couple years. Also, through various interviews, he does sound like he is ready to take the next step.

After reading his interview and about his history, I really want to see him in Dallas.

Unheralded Kurt Warner stepped in for the injured Trent Green and compiled the seventh-highest passer rating in NFL history to win NFL MVP. Presto. The Greatest Show on Turf was born, and the Rams went on to lead the NFL in points and yards gained for three consecutive seasons. Marshall Faulk had 1,381 rushing yards and 1,048 receiving yards. Isaac Bruce, Az Hakim and rookie Torry Holt combined for more than 2,600 receiving yards and 26 touchdowns. St. Louis' defense allowed the fewest rushing yards in the league, but it ranked a dubious 24th in passing yards allowed (in part because teams had to pass in playing from behind). The knock on this team was its easy schedule. It went 3-2 against teams .500 or better, and they played two close postseason games.

Sounds about right...

Dont worry Eagles fans! You guys are in the 50's! Thats good shit for never winning a superbowl, lol

I love how you continue to trash the Eagles to comfort the feeling of cheering on a shitty rams team. Its like all you post about these days.

But i can feel you pain. Id be pissed also if i couldnt get it done with Steven Jackson, Torry Holt, Issac Bruce, and Bulger. By all accounts, that should be a top 3 offense. And id see why you'd want Dmac, cause you know he would actually make plays on that team.

Hell, JGar would make those plays.


But alas, your stuck with no arm bulger, and the self-concussing Gus Ferotte. Send us a 2nd rounder and we'll consider sending AJ Feely your way!

You say something?...Bulger>McNabb, I can't spell it out any better. And yes, missing 5 starters on your online wont demolish a season, right?!
 
here i'll do it for you:


sfo.gif

What, you want to bet against Joe Montana and Jerry Rice? This team gets our nod due to its excellence on both sides of the ball, mind-boggling statistics and perhaps the most dominant postseason run in NFL history. This team gave us Montana, Rice, Roger Craig, Ronnie Lott and Charles Haley in their primes. It also boasted the largest margin of victory in Super Bowl history, scoring 55 points against the NFL's best scoring defense.


This team had a future Hall of Famer, Steve Young, as its backup quarterback. Montana recorded the third-highest single-season passer rating in NFL history – more than 20 points higher than the No. 2 mark that season. Rice was unstoppable, as he and John Taylor teamed for 142 receptions, 2,560 yards and 27 touchdowns.

Former defensive coordinator George Seifert seemed to push all the right buttons in his first season at the helm, following Bill Walsh's retirement. His offensive coordinator was Mike Holmgren, who would go on to guide three Super Bowl participants as head coach. San Francisco won 13 games by double digits, including playoff scores of 41-13, 30-3 and 55-10. The 49ers also went 8-0 on the road. Their two losses came by a total of five points, and both of those opponents won at least 10 games. To date, only three members of this team are enshrined in the Hall of Fame, which speaks to the value of a tremendous supporting cast that included Brent Jones, Tom Rathman, Jesse Sapolu, Michael Carter, Pierce Holt, Kevin Fagan, Keena Turner, Eric Wright, Tim McKyer, Matt Millen and Bill Romanowski.
----------

and who was the WORST superbowl team ever? #80, The LA RAMS!

The Rams were a powerhouse for most of the '70s under Chuck Knox and had six straight seasons of 10 or more wins from '73 to '78, so it was a surprise this 9-7 team was the one that finally reached the Super Bowl (with the worst record ever for a Super Bowl team). The Rams led the NFL in interceptions thrown in '79, with four different QBs contributing. Pat Haden was the starting QB most of the season, but Vince Ferragamo had replaced an injured Haden by the playoffs. Despite leading a superior Steelers team heading into the fourth quarter, this team still gets the No. 80 ranking.
