So are you saying they will or they won't? I can't tell. I'm guessing you're saying they will make the playoffs, I don't know.

I'm going to say they won't. Here's why.

First, this season is really going to be crucial for McNabb. And he can't even play a whole season anymore. He really is declining now, and you really can't stop it.

There aren't many proven receivers in Philly. Kevin Curtis had a good year, but do you really want ihm as your number one? I sure wouldn't.

AJ Feeley is an average backup, and Kevin Kolb has never thrown an NFL pass. You call that "capable"? I call that mediocre.

Asante Samuel can't do it by himself. The Eagles' secondary is becoming weaker. Dawkins is aging and Considine is a huge wild card there. Lito Sheppard's future with the team is in limbo, and I don't know where Sheldon Brown fits in.

Plus, the Eagles play in arguably the toughest division in the NFL. I don't think they'll come in last, but they'll be close. This really is a rebuilding year for Philly, and they might get worse before they get better.

The schedule is tough. With 2 games every season against the Boys, Giants, and Skins, its not an easy road to the playoffs here
