No Defense Can Stop Us!

With the Eagles commanding win over the Green Bay Packers (47-17) they rise to become 11-1. There is no team even close in the NFC. My wife's poor New York Giants are at a mediocre 5-7. Brian Westbrook, the Eagles lightning fast halfback said "I don't think any defense can stop us. The thing that is going to stop us is ourselves." This much is true. For the past couple of years it has been the Eagles who have stopped themselves always coming up short of the ultimate ride - a trip to the Superbowl.

This year seems different though. There is the controversial Terrell Owens who has opened up numerous possibilities for McNabb. There is also a healthy Westbrook who has been on fire the past few games - scoring three touchdowns against the Packers. Then there is also the drive of being so close the past few years but not being able to make it. The Eagles have the team and the drive to make it to the Superbowl. The only question which remains is will they stop themselves short?
