"One longshot pick to potentially fall apart. What about Philly? This is an actual excerpt from John Clayton's 'First and 10' column this week: 'This was a bumpy offseason for Philadelphia, beyond Owens' antics. There was the Jerome McDougle shooting; Todd Pinkston blew out a knee; Correll Buckhalter is out for the season; Brian Westbrook held out and wants a new deal; and Corey Simon had the franchise tag pulled and signed with the Colts.'
Good Lord! In New England, the most traumatic event of the summer was Deion Branch's getting rested throughout the exhibition season because Belichick wanted to save him for the playoffs, so there was a rumor that Branch was hurt (it turned out that he wasn't). Meanwhile, Philly had so many things happen, a player got SHOT and it was casually thrown in the middle of the paragraph. Unbelievable. In a sport that ongoing distractions really can kill your season, the Eagles seem to be pushing the limits."
Now the good news:
"We'll see how it goes. In the AFC, they could have been broken. In the NFC, they'll probably still go 11-5, even with all this stuff happening."

This is an interesting bet. Hope I'm not paying off in week 12.

What's even worse than this is that I even know the words to the Dolphins' fight song. Oh, and Penn's too.
