Danger Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 QB- Donavan McNabb vs Jalen Hurts RB- Brian Westbrook vs Miles Sanders WR- Terrell Owens vs AJ Brown WR- Freddie Mitchell vs Devonta Smith WR- Todd Pinkston vs Quez Watkins TE- Chad Lewis vs Dallas Goedart LT- Tra Thomas vs Jordan Mailata LG- Artis Hicks vs Landon Dickerson C- Hank Fraley vs Jason Kelce RG- Jermaine Mayberry or Isaac Seumalo RT- Jon Runyan vs Lane Johnson DE- Jevon Kearse vs Josh Sweat DT- Corey Simon vs Javon Hargrave DT- Darwin Walker vs Fletcher Cox DE- Derrick Burgess vs Brandon Graham LB- Mark Simoneau vs Haason Reddick LB- Jeremiah Trotter vs TJ Edwards LB- Dhani Jones vs Kyzir White CB- Lito Sheppard vs Darius Slay CB- Sheldon Brown vs James Bradbury FS- Brian Dawkins vs Chauncey Gardner Johnson SS- Michael Lewis vs Marcus Epps K- David Akers vs Jake Elliott P- Dirk Johnson vs Brett Kern HC- Andy Reid vs Nick Sirianni OC- Brad Childress vs Shane Steichen DC- Jim Johnson vs Jonathan Gannon PUSH Jalen Hurts over McNabb more for the mental than anything else I like me some Miles, but Westbrook was different TO is my #2 WR of all time Devonta and it's not close Quez Watkins, Pinkston was trash Goedert, and it's not close Tra was more consistent but Mailata is more dominant when he's on Definitely not the strongest position of either team, but I feel like Landon is still ascending Kelce's a GOAT Seumalo by a margin, honestly don't remember much about Mayberry, I thought we already had Shawn Andews at this point? Lane Johnson is the best RT in football. Kearse in his Tennessee days was better than Sweat, but he wasn't as good here. Sweat's improving still Hargrave by a thin margin, I don't remember much detail about Simon Darwin Walker was the first player I remember this forum clowning back in the day and he was a rookie I think? Even in his twilight gimme Cox Graham is an Eagles All-Timer and just posted his first double digit sack season Reddick and it's not close Trotter is an Eagles All-Timer, good season by TJ no doubt, but he's not on Trotter's level. I don't think either Jones or White is a standout player, though White's probably more consistent This one is tough, I have a signed picture of Lito Sheppard hanging in my room, was one of my first favorite players, but he was still fairly green here. Maybe I'm clouded on this one, as the same argument of inexperience I made about Lito could apply here, but Sheldon always just seemed like such a shutdown CB even without the pick numbers Brian Dawkins is a hall of famer, CGJ I'd love to retain him, but he's gonna get money after a good season on a contract year, but he isn't a hall of famer by any stretch of the imagination at this point in his career Epps is.... ok. Both Good Kickers, but Akers has a better resume IMO It's Kearns stupid This is a hard one to say. I vibe with Sirianni better, I think he's more innovative and has better management of time and game awareness, is a better leader than Andy was at this point, but Andy certainly had a better resume and knew X's and O's better. I didn't like Childress, idk. Jim Johnson, no offense Gannon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjapirate Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 2004 Trotter was a shell of himself 2022 TJ is a better player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) This is hands down the best Eagles team I've witness as a whole. Hopefully they can finish it off properly and in the years to come, be given thier due credit Top 5 offenses and Top 5 Defenses in the same year doesn't happen often. Yes I'm aware that in 2017 was also the case. I'd take this roster. Edited February 4, 2023 by Nabbs4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or forgotten in many ways like the 07' Patriots because they couldn't/didn't finish it off with a ring. NO to those about to ask, I'm not suggesting this Chiefs team is the 07' Giants David Tyree fluk catch team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Sheldon would tell you at any point in his career did he have a better season than James did this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
