In reply to Red.

Stick a fork in Eli….He’s done.

As far as your weak prediction about the Eagles, you couldn’t be anymore wrong.
Foles will light up the scoreboards this season.
He came in as a Backup last year and all he did was win.
His cleats are now in Canton, in case you missed it.
You can watch all the film you want, the Eagles will have a new look and guess what, Foles got much better in the off season and you will see how much better in due time.
His arm strength is now elite and his ability to read defenses and make split second decisions have been honed to near perfection.
He is the next BIG thing and you wanna talk regression? Bwah ha ha ha Bwha ha ha ha !!!!
Too funny.

Its likely that Hayden will not start and that Terrell McClain will, a former high draft pick of the Texans who has performed well. Regarding Richie’s comment, Brandon Carr was in the Pro Bowl for the Chiefs so he is not a huge unknown. Problem with Dallas defense in 2013 was largely injuries. Ware was not worth the $ to keep, as much as I hated to see him go. Likewise for Hatcher. Its an iffy proposition for the defense but Marinelli should provide an upgrade in that his 4-3 defense scheming is more sophisticated that the vanilla Tampa 2 that was employed last year. All we need now is the 2014 season and some data to see who is more prescient. I predict a middlin’ dallas defense for the upcoming year.
