For the sake of this post, I’m going to assume that no one (other than Andy Reid) believes that Eagles have [INSERT POST TITLE HERE] of making the playoffs. After their most recent game, the Eagles are now 5-8 and are in complete shambles. Despite managing to disguise themselves as a 9-4 playoff team, the New York Giants are by no means a good team. The fact that the Eagles could not defeat them @ Lincoln Financial field is a painful reminder of how bad this Eagles team really is. For whatever the reasons, it is now clear that the Eagles’ window of opportunity from earlier this decade has completely closed. What we are left holding is a painful reminder of what this Eagles team never accomplished.

First, let me start by making the following disclaimers:
- The Eagles are not a very good football team
- The Eagles are not a playoff team as of the moment
- I doubt that the Eagles even COULD make the playoffs
- Donovan McNabb is having his most inconsistent season as an Eagle
- The Eagles have had terrible special teams play all season
We were forced to endure a frustrating painful pathetic exciting game against the Washington Redskins yesterday. The very overrated 5-3 Washington Redskins squared off against a very under achieving Eagles team in a game that will never be included in the archives of the NFL’s greatest games. As a result, it was nothing that transpired on the field of play that got my ire going, instead it was the CLUELESS hosts and the odd caller into the 610-WIP post-game show.

This has been bugging me now for a couple of weeks; Head Coach of the Eagles Andy Reid has been dealing with some really nasty family stuff for the past six to nine months. The troubles surrounding his two sons (Britt & Garrett) have been well documented and chronicled in the Philadelphia media. However, over the last 4-6 weeks the coverage by the local media has taken a completely different direction. All of the written opinion and talk-show discourse had shifted into a gear that I could only characterize as negative and completely inappropriate. While everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion on how well they BELIEVE Andy Reid IS or IS NOT handling his family and home life – is all the constant discussion, deliberation and speculation provide any value to an already horrible situation?

Well, the Phillies have gone completely belly up (no surprise) and I have abandoned my willingness to invest time in getting upset each night. So with the football season officially underway last night, it’s time for the annual exercise for Eagles fans: Win? / Loss?
