Defensive motivation? The defense is far from the worries. Cole, patterson, bunkley are fine. then you have a lot of rotation on the other end, clemons (second season with the team, i am sure he will be much better) Parker ( started most last year wasnt bad) and Victor abramiri (sp) will be back he is a good run stuffer.
Asante isnt leaving, Sheldon is still good, they locked up hanson, Mikel is a beast, and then you have Dawkins, who is the true leader and insperation on the eagles. If they dont resign him they should go after the safty the raiders just cut.
either way they could move brown to safty, throw in lito and hope he plays like he did 2 seasons ago.
Give Mcnabb the weapons he wants. they have the cap room, and the draft picks to to it.
That defense is too inconsistant. they're good, dont get me wrong but they've allowed a lot of points this season. Their offense is fine, McNabb likes to hold the ball for a long time, that's one thing that hurts him.
The Eagles prolly have one of the fastest offenses in the league, there is no reason for him to say he has no weapons. You have to get the ball to where they are first.
