Just heard on NFL Network nnamdi asougha is an eagle.

[Brandon494]

Eagles are looking dangerous right now. Wow

[Joemailman]

Eagles are now the Packers biggest threat in the NFC. Actually, they probably were last year as well.

The Vince Young Juggernaut....Tex would be proud.

Lions going after Nick Barnett. http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/...k-Barnett.html

Barnett must have been released? He just tweeted this:

Ok not going to lie the bolts fans and lions go hard on twitter!!! I see a couple eagle fans and Tampa but overwhelmed by Detroit and SD

It's now official from the Packers website that Barnett has been released, along with Mark Tauscher, Brandon Chillar, Brady Poppinga and Justin Harrell. http://www.packers.com/news-and-events/article-1/Packers-release-seven-players/dab18783-b902-4e9e-b128-6527703c2965

The thing is, we don't play them this year and we're not scheduled to play them next year. A team you don't play can't be that huge a threat.

Also, this pretty much guarantees that Samuel has to be moved, as DRC/Asomugha are press-man CBs and Samuel is an off-zone corner. It's hard to mix them, since Samuel doesn't really play man and Asomugha doesn't really play zone.

I'm already thinking playoffs.

I'm already thinking playoffs.

You can never guarantee somebody else doesn't beat one of the teams you're concerned about in the playoffs, and pretty much all of the teams you play in the playoffs are good.

We should be concerned about the Eagles. Their additions of DRC and Scrabble are in direct retort to our handling of them in Philly last season in the playoffs.

[jmbarnes101]

Eagles also signed TE Donald Lee, another former player gone, and WR/KR Johnnie Lee Higgins to one year contracts.

Thanks Donald.

How does Asomugha prevent James Starks from running for 120+?

Lurker..ya beat me to it.

The Eagles have D-line issues and now are losing all of their linebackers. Yeah, they signed Babin but is he really going to help. I don't think so. I guess the eagles are thinking that having better corners will improve their D-line - give them more time to get to the quarterback. I'd rather have a stellar pass rush over a stellar secondary.

Gholston to da bears.
