You do know they leave champ out on an island and roll their zone to Smoot, don't you? Smoot also plays a good 10 yards off the line...

**Let's be honest, poor coaching and underachievment has been the Skin's M.O. for several years. The odds are that their D will improve (but I wouldn't say they still don't have problems)

Their D is improved, but their DL is to crap for. They're strength is run defense, and they are average at best at that

I would take eagles OL anyday over theirs...

"Half of them believe Brunnell is better than mcnabb."
** McNabb is over rated, don't just take Limbaugh's word for it, but Bruenell isn't in McNabb's league anymore. McNabb is the best QB in this division(again, that ain't saying mucch)
"I just heard one say Taylor will probably end up better than Williams. "
**Wishfull thinking no doubt, but Taylor isn't exactly chopped liver, he was drafted #5 for a reason.

So should we assume Newman will be better than Bailey and Mcallister? I don't assume it, and Newman is much more proven than Taylor...
