Okay. Maybe not at an awful 3-6 start. But let's face it, this team had noticeable flaws coming into the season, even after they went out and bought the top free agents last summer, along with some of the top backups.
Through the first nine games, they've done nothing to alleviate our pre-season concerns, which in no particular order were: shaky offensive line, fragile quarterback, smallest linebackers ever, ultra-rookie defensive coordinator.
Before the season began, I wasn't confident that this team was a real contender. Playoffs. Yes. Super Bowl. No. My biggest fear was that the Eagles were about to become the team we've all laughed at through the years- the big-spending, basement-dwelling Washington Redskins. That's what this season feels like to me, minus the offensive, racist nickname.
There's really only one thing to do to make this team better- trade Mick Vick for Tim Tebow. Straight up. Fantasy-style. God always wins.
Super proud to have made no mention of the phrase "dream team."
Disclaimer: I take all of this back when we're parading down Broad Street celebrating the Super Bowl win.
