Send Andy to Cleveland!— RockStar- Send Marty anywhere...— eagledon
- fire sean, fire marty, fire andy, start over— tooltime
- Try to get at least a 3rd rounder for Kolb
- What a bunch of jerks you guys are. Andy and the rest of the staff get the Eagles into the playoffs almost every year, therefore a chance for the SB almost every year. Would you rather have the Gaints or Cowgirls coaches? DUH! You guys know nothing! Andy did not miss the fumble recovery, did not go off-sides on a third down stop that then lead to a Packer TD, did not miss two makable fieldgoals, did not rush the throw that caused the last interception or miss the many tackles on D. Andy and his staff put the team in a position to win and even though they did not play well, they had a chance to pull it out at the end. Hey guys, go make love to your wives, spend some time with your families, reconnect with society and stop the stupid comments about your Eagles that had a great season.— chucksf
- Dallas and NY suck!!!!!!!!!!!!— jdld610
- Get rid of chucksf as commentator here. That would be the biggest improvment— clobal
- They are desperate for talent on D at almost any position. Watching rookie safeties Earl Thomas and Eric Berry this weekend, it's clear that Nate Allen is not as good, certainly not as physical. They have no OLB's on the roster at all, as usual. The DL completely failed down the stretch of the year, with only Dixon playing himself into a starting job with Cole next year. We've talked about RCB endlessly. There are no game-changers or heavy hitters on D at all. You know when some of the best hits of the year were supplied by Assante Samuel, that D is in trouble!— jimmyj
- I think Eagles fans need to look themselves in the mirror and realize KARMA is at work. Your trophy case looks like an empty ziplock bag. Why? Maybe because star players hate playing for fans that turn on them in a second, fans that are a**holes and show no sportsmanship skills, fans that really are grade A poosies when it comes down to it. Really the Eagles dont win because the fans simply dont deserve it. i'm shocked the Phils won two years ago.....enjoy your baseball title we all know that all you would trade it for a Lombardi trophy in a second. Eat it bird fans you deserve this misery...— scuzzle12
- You can't improve..you have no hope. GO GIANTS !!!!!— Giantsmania
- the giants (no caps purposely)?? Go, Eli. As long as Eli is around to execute McNabb-like gaffs, the Eagles will be in the playoffs. There are 31 other teams in the NFL. You may want to pick one of those for your "mania". — billtfla
- Andy and coaches need 4 or 5 solid players. DBs are a particular need as is the Oline. Somebody on the coaching staff needs to be in charge of teaching Vick to audible when there are 2 linebackers on the right tackle and NOBODY else to block!! The first sack in on Vick. Keep Andy and McDermott but have somebody watch the clock and watch the blitz packages. Sign both Vick and Kolb and dig deep in free agency. (See Phillies acquire Cliff Lee). Great season, keep it up Eagles.— billtfla
- they can instantly improve by getting rid of mcdermott!— Geno D
- Send Klob boy to Jr High School, thats where he may succeed throwing 5 yard passes....— Calabrese10
- Geno D... firing McD isn't going to get us anywhere near the SB, and you know it. No.1 priority Asomugha, No.2 O-line. Sure we need big LBs and more depth at DE and safety, but they're just not as crucial. If we don't get O-linemen, Vick is gonna get killed again next year. And without a good RCB, it won't matter how much we score, Kenny Britt and others are going to be all over us again. Getting rid of McD may be a very very very slight improvement, but not nearly enough to cover any one of the lack of talent all over the roster.— goeagles87
- chucksf; We are all suffering from Reid fatigue. The Giants have won a SB with that coach. A.R. is too stuborn to evolve so there is no point in going on with someone who won;t change. I'm sure his nutritionist and Dr. feel the same way. Stop defending him
- NNAMDI ASOMUGHA— fman727
- Andy needs to go. Yes, he has made the playoffs 9 of his 12 years as coach. While that's impressive, he's arrogant and stubborn and his in game adjustments are non existent. He has proven over and over again that he CANNOT get it done. Time to move on. If you're goal is to make the playoffs every year, he's your guy....if you want to win the Superbowl.......the time is yours, cough cough, clears throat.— Tar Heel 1

- I can't take the Birds SB chances seriously until Andy Reid comes out and makes a determined effort to run the ball with authority. If you pass constantly it's because you can't run effectively. All the teams remaining have serious power run games that - compliment - the pass. And they don't rely on a QB that scrambles for yards when pass protect breaks down.— MJPD345
- As usual, guys like chuck and scuzzle know nothing. Birds fans are the best. Tell me what team, who's never won a SB, still has a 60K waiting list for tickets? What fans ahve listened to the same coach say over and over "I've got to do a better job" and watch him do the same job for 12 years with no title? Giants and Dallas stink, but they have titles. Reid is a terrible gameday coach. For every good draft pick he makes, he makes four bad ones. He had no clue what Vick would do this year and tried to trade him before the season, but no one wanted him. So Reid got the Eagles to 9 postseasons: when is he going to win one? When is a writer going to ask him, "Coach, just when are you going to do a better job"?— mike l
- let's get mike singletary to coach this defense to make them hungray— wartoys
- If we would have won yesterday, it would have masked the weaknesses of the team. The right side of the offensive line needs to be replaced. We need a new defensive end, and 2 new defensive tackles, plus at least 1 cornerback, a strong side linebacker, and a safety. When those improvements occur, we'll have a super bowl caliber team for a couple of years. But, I had the team 7-9, at the beginning of the season and to do as well as we did, despite the fact it was a weak and young team, is impressive.— PLShihadeh
- How can the Eagles improve? Lose Sick Vick the dog torturer! That would be a 1,000% improvement right there! :-D— DancesWithWords
- ChuckSF must be Andy's son................— Philly4ever1914
- The Eagles are scanning the land for guys coming off ACL surgery as we speak.— dasher

- jet3to:
What you're saying makes no sense at ll. The Eagles have a horrible tradition!
The 1960 team is sometimes referred to as one of the worst ever to win the championship.
Lurie and Reid have brought the most sustained period of winning that this franchise has ever seen by a wide margin. Reid won't ever win a Super Bowl, but I'll bet the Bills fans would love to have Levy back, and the Vikings fans, Bud Grant, and the Browns fans Schottenheimer, etc.
Geez, of all the nonsesne that normally gets posted, talking about any Eagles tradition is the most absurd!— jimmyj
