We would like to thank the Philadelphia Eagles for participating in the 2006 NFL season. You are welcome to pick up your “We weren’t already losing games we should have won, now we can hide behind this injury” tee-shirts as you leave the stadium.

This could be so much worse. If the Eagles were 8-1, as they should have been, then this injury would be catastrophic. As it was, the Eagles were having trouble getting the easy wins, and were riding the line between “about to turn it on” and “about to be eliminated”. The coach was on the hot seat the fans were struggling to stay confident. Now, all that is washed away. The season is a wash, and the best thing the Eagles fans can do now is root for the Redskins to get some wins, and give up the cellar, so the Eagles can get a better pick and an easier road for next year.
