I'd rather see a team tank into the basement rather than making the playoffs with no chance of going anywhere just to say they made the playoffs. That's how teams learn to get better. The Eagles have been on cruise control with no chance of going all the way. Heck, Tampa and New Orleans have won a superbowl, they didn't need the best stats or winning percentage to get the job done. Elway lost several times before finally winning and that's what people will remember.

And Mcnabb has lost several times just like Elway. The interview on ESPN with Brian Dawkins said it perfectly. Mcnabb finnally gets all the weapons he needs and now that they have had a year to develop they trade him away!!

The Phillies won the WS in 1980. Made it back in what 83 and then 10 yrs later in 93, Tanked for the the next 14 yrs before making it back to the playoffs! I dont know about you but there were some horrible seasons for being a Phillies fan. I know I wasnt saying " well we suck this year in 2002 but at least we won a WS back in 1980"!! Its great winning a WS but It really sucks if you dont win another or even make it back to the Championship game for 10 yrs or longer!! The Mets won it back in 1986 and made it to the WS in 2000!! Are Mets fans happy with having a sucky team because they have won a WS 24 years ago?


New Orleans had all the stats this year.. They had I believe the #1 offense and caused the most turnovers on Defense!! They also had the best record in the NFC and played the team with the best record in the AFC. So yeah NO needed to have an amazing year were they were #1 in most of the important catagories to win a Superbowl!
