Sheldon hasnt done much.

That’s a very stupid thing to say. How often do you see him get torched on a deep route? When does he ever miss an assignment? Miss a tackle?

When playing man in the redzone, how often do the opponents throw his direction?

Never.

No, he doesn’t get picks or even a lot of passes defensed, but that is not because he isn’t doing his job. They guy is just so proficient at blanketing his man that you don’t see him because the ball doesn’t go in his direction.

Talk about the rest of the D all you want, Sheldon Brown is definitely not a weak point, nor is he overrated.

It’s one bad game.

And let’s give credit where credit is due – The Saints played phenomenal football yesterday, and Drew Brees is making a strong case for himself to be called the best football player on the planet (with apologies to AP). His style reminds me a lot of Joe Montana.

Last week, we’re the ‘85 Bears – This week, we’re overrated.

This is a marathon, not a race, fellas. We’ll be fine.

you’d think that you would remember last season, when the team was all over the place for the first part of the season, made adjustments and became one of the top units in the league.

The Saints are probably the bets offense in the league. Brees would have to come down with a bout of severe Delhomme-itis in order for the Eagles to win that game without McNabb.

You couldn’t control the clock either.

you have no idea what ur talkin about… as much as i like Q and asante they got beat over and over again and u think sheldon is a weak point? he had 2 picks last week and got beat far less than asante yesterday and when ellis fumbles a kick return that doesnt make him a bad corner and as far as the linebackers i think theyv been pretty good omar gaither is playin better than expected and akeem is playin lights out. i think ur blaming the wrong ppl

they were playing the #1 offense in the league.. give em a break

Since when?!?? Everybody has been complaining about the lack of production from our linebackers these past few years. These last 2 weeks Akeem Jordan alone has made 2 interceptions and he and Gocong together have been making great open-field tackles and doing a great job blitzing and rushing the passer.

They were the #1 defense in the NFC last year when they gave up 40+ to Dallas. Bad games happen. They’ll get better. The guy that wrote this topic either is not an Eagles fan, never watches the Eagles, or is an idiot.

Last year, Steelers had the #1 defense. They allowed 31 points to the Tennessee Titans
Year before, Steelers had #1 defense. They allowed 31 points to Broncos and 34 points to Patriots.
2005, Bucs had the #1. They allowed 34 points to the Panthers.

It’s not uncommon for defenses to have very off days…relax, season’s young. Let the season roll out a bit before you throw the defense under the bus.
