With your first post here, you sidle up to AR and sing the praises of authority...well done.  You should do great here.

Not sidling up. Just keeping in mind that I am a fan not an expert. I doubt if anyone on here understands the intricacies of professional football as well as Andy Reid.

and thus he is free of criticism or second guessing?

not sure what youre getting at here

I refuse to believe that anyone really believes that crap.

Thankfully, this is where the Philly media really shines. Nobody who lives in the area and has access to something other than the evening news sports report will ever believe that anyone is beyond criticism.

The man. The myth. The legend.

the decade before Reid was filled with some high points and a lot of misery.  Sounds just like the decade when Reid was the coach.

That's a bit much. Not to defend Reid, but he is obviously preferable to Kotite and Rhodes. That's extremely faint praise, and I hope no one mistakes that for a full endorsement of Reid's coaching abilities.

96 wins (8 playoff) under 9 years of Reid vs. 77 wins (2 playoff) under 8 years of Kotite and Rhodes and 1 year of Ryan.
1 Super Bowl victory by NFC East rivals vs. 5 Super Bowl victories by NFC East rivals
We all remember the early 90s defenses fondly, but in our nostalgia we forget how badly those offenses sucked. In 1991 the Eagles leading rusher was James Joseph. Other than 2-1/4  years of Randall Cunningham, the Eagles had no legitimate QB during the nine seasons before Reid.

Apparently Eskin, the mouthpiece that he is, said on his show today that the Eagles have to make the playoffs or they will "look into" replacing him.

he didnt say they would he said maybe they will...as in its possible...he was just giving his opinion vs reporting something that someone in the organization told him

Ah ok. With as many peckers he sucks over there in the NCC for him to say they would really look into it would mean something.

I think Andy is doing a solid job in comparison to the vast majority of NFL head coaches. I know he knows alot more about personell then fans and commentators. If he feels his offense will work fine with his existing WR's why should any of us have the audacity to assume we know better? Remember, we didn't win a SB with TO, and the Patriots didn't win one with Moss. The biggest play by a WR in the last SB was a 4th guy (Tyree).

Spuds?   :sly

LOL!! :-D
