Eagles Are Done For

After being called the Dream Team before the season began, the Philadelphia Eagles have been more than a disappointment and it is clear that their season is over with no hopes of the playoffs.  Vick, Eagles' $100 million dollar star, missed his third straight game yesterday with broken ribs as the Eagles fell to the Seahawks 31-14.  The Eagles struggled offensively throughout the game only scoring 2 touchdowns, 1 in the 2nd quarter and 1 in the 4th quarter.  Vince Young, who is playing in place of Michael Vick, threw 4 interceptions and only 1 touchdown in the loss.  McCoy scored both touchdowns, 1 rushing and 1 passing, for the Eagles and ended the game with 84 rushing yards and 49 receiving yards.  DeSean Jackson, after making the headlines the last for weeks for "sitting out" due to wanting more money, had a very quiet game with only 4 carries for 34 yards and with Maclin, who has had a pretty good season for the Eagles, was absent from Thursday's game due to a hamstring and shoulder injury.  Seahawks' Lynch gave the Eagles' defense a hard time with 22 carries for 148 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns.  Jackson ended the game with 13 of 16 completions for 190 yards and 1 touchdown.  With the Eagles now falling to 4-8 and last place in the NFC East it is safe to say that the Eagles just need to prepare for next season.  The Eagles will end this season playing the Dolphins 12/11, Jets 12/18, Cowboys 12/24, and the Redskins 1/1/2012.  It will be interesting to see how the Eagles will bounce back from this tough seasons, especially once Vick is completely healthy.  This season was obviously hard on them with the continuous pressure of being a great team that was placed on the team as well as the continuous injuries that star quarterback Vick suffered almost every week.  Maybe next year with a completely healthy Vick the Eagles will look like last season's Eagles or better, the Eagles team that most thought that Vick may or should have led to the Super Bowl.  It will also be interesting to see if DeSean Jackson will be with the Eagles next year.  Jackson has had a horrible season, in my eyes, thus far and has showed a horrible attitude towards his fans or the franchise of Philadelphia acting out trying to receive more money.  In due time I guess we will find out if Jackson will re-sign with the Eagles and if he will receive the money he is looking for.  But as of now all you can say is stick a fork in them, the eagles are done.
