WR isn't the Eagles' problem anymore. And they have a prototypical #1 receiver.

Everything else you said is on point, though.

Who? Jeremy "Ted Ginn II" Maclin? Little Desean Jackson? They might be solid pros, but short guys like Steve Smith dominating at WR becoming dominant has become much increasingly rare.

I agree with all but one point. Be happy with that.

Re: What happened to the Cowboys?

Great, I typed a long post only to have the site time-out.

Mainly, it's coaching. Dallas has horrible coaching & gameplanning that doesn't untilize it's talents & personel accordingly; this is why Phillips has been on the hot seat for so long and how he has basically squandered a roster loaded with talent that Parcells drafted.

Nothing happened. They were actually predicted in their right spot for a change.

Re: What happened to the Cowboys?

They still play in the most talented division in football. No one else has 4 likely playoff caliber teams in one division.

If the Cowboys put Romo in the back seat and feature their very good running backs, they could really surprise. But smash mouth is not the Cowboy way, and not the Jerry Jones way, so don't expect this to happen.

Parcells was a great coach, that turned the franchise in the right direction (only to see them start vearing back off the tracks once he left)...but his drafting was overrated (ie. Bobby Carpenter, Marcus Spears, Julius Jones, etc)
