First, sorry about the misinformed 9er over here...Salery Cap has been HELL to us, our former gm was a douch bag (Garcia made over 10mil one year because of incentives)..., and we are gonna be paying for it for a few more yrs... but who are you guys saving your cap room for?? TO?? Westbrook??? ...good luck. YOU NEED TO WIN THIS YEAR!

btw , i know Philly can easily destroy us if they are hitting on all cylinders, BUT they clearly are not, so we have a chance, stop TO to 10-15 ypc with a cover 2 , then let our LB's blitz and tee-off on Westbrook... obviously we will need some other help (turnover, big special teams play) BUT we have a chance, and in poker..er football thats all you need.

The Eagles had a bad game. Holy shtein, what is with this "not hitting on all cylinders" crap? Last year, they had a really bad game...it was against the Steelers. At that point, everyone in the league put the Steelers as the #1 ranked team over the Pats and Eagles because they went out and beat both of them back to back and all 3 had been undefeated at the time. That did a lot for them, didn't it? Eagles also started 2003 with TWO horrendous games. The ended up winning 11 of the next 12 games and got to the NFCCG. Those first 2 abysmal games meant nothing. And they were FAR worse than they were on Monday night. FAR WORSE.

Please don't sit here and talk about the Eagles not doing well with the cap. They are the best team in the NFL with the cap. What are they saving UP for? I'll bet you 10 bucks that by the middle of this season they have re-signed Westbrook, Rod Hood and Michael Lewis.

Please stop talking about the Niners like you play for them too.

Sheesh, do you people honestly believe that a team like the Eagles will just roll over and die after a loss in week one? I have never met such a bunch of misinformed fans in my life.

The three obvious answers for what is the money being saved for:

Michael Lewis
Brian Westbrook
David Akers

A couple other players may get extensions, too.  See, no matter how close the Eagles under Lurie/Banner/Reid get, they aren't going to just blow their wad to try to win.  The NFL doens't work that way.  Tell me a team that bought a Super Bowl in teh salary cap era?  It never really works out that way, does it?  Instead, they just end up in cap hell, with all their money tied up in players who aren't on the field, or even the team.

You're trying to explain this to a niners fan, DIO.

A team that has been living in cap hell for how many years now?

I already hate Derrek Smith because he was the LB who picked off Donovan during that 2001 game where they stopped the Eagles 7 times in a row from the 1 (even though Thrash broke the plane).

I hope TO has 4 dances ready for them. Their CBs suck.
They have cornerbacks? O_o

I should have taken this bet.
