I do agree that Philly had ample chance to win the SB many years in the recent past, and blew it, but McNabb has been in the league 9 years now, and is really just starting to enter his prime. If he can fully recover from his injuries and play like the 2004 Donovan McNabb that took the Eagles to the Super Bowl and almost won it (minus some puking...we all know it happened..). If McNabb can come back the way that he initially went out, in early 05 (which he has showed shades of over the past few seasons) we really don't need a #1 reciever, or go to guy, because McNabb will be able to find 3 recievers per down, and hit them all, like we know he can.
Overall, I don't see the Eagles going for a 'go-to-guy' or a #1WR any more this year. The Fitzgerald case is finally over, and now we really don't have any more options (Roy Williams, DET and Chad Johnson CIN...you really think either of those teams are giving those recievers up??). The Eagles may add some more peices, but it doesn't seem like we will make another push for a big-name reciever, instead...we will rely on McNabb to hit 10 targets a game like in times previous. I am very excited to see the Eagles this year, and I can't wait to roll out my Eagles predictions at the beginning of the year (After the draft...). Last year I did a very in-depth analysis, and barring miracle turnovers and last minute drives, the Eagles would have wound up with a much better record than 8-8, and much closer to the record I predicted of 12-4. Lets hope for a great season to come, and I hope you guys will check out my prediction after the pre season.
