We'll know in four years, right now this looks like the best hire we could've made. We have no choice but to trust his decisions until he gives us a reason not to. I think that last year was just a bad year, similar to us, outside of our QB situation we weren't a 2-14 team, just as they weren't a 4-12 team. I think eventually you figure "What the hell, nothing to play for anymore." You stop running as fast, you let up on your tackles, you just understand that you have to worry about health for next year and contracts. I think the Eagles weren't the best team in the NFC East, not by a long shot, but with Michael Vick becoming a turnover machine and regressing, with Andy Reid's son's death, with the defensive cluster that resulted in musical chairs, and all after a 3-1 record to start the whole season off. I think that Reid, with a new roster, with a new owner, a new fanbase that will be a little more forgiving, and the ability to have his choice in his staff from the past success he had, I really think that this will be a re-energizing of Reid.
