his best chance wasn't even with us. I think that Vikings team was one of the best ever to not win a superbowl. Them against Dever would have been an awesome superbowl

Randall turned me into a fan and thankfully so. I could've easily grown up to be a Redskins fan since most of my family are Skins fans.

Imagine if a younger Randall with the Eagles had the weapons he did on that Minny team (well he briefly had Cris Carter)  and the defense he had with the Eagles. Why has it always been that this team tends to have a great defense, a QB that can get us to the SB but turns out he lacks a lot of great weapons.

Then they add all the weapons and the Defense Sucks and the QB play deteriorates....

It wasnt the lack of weapons..

It was one of the worst o-lines in the nfl that plagued him during his time in philly. Well...... and bad luck too.

Philly never had a good RB to pair with Randall that in my opinion was the problem. Byars our FB was by far our biggest threat out of the backfield..

Randall's gone, let it go already.  Move this to Around the NFL, he's not an Eagle anymore!

That's for the people that say this about Reid or McNabb.

yea but ppl bring up reid with current moves he is making with the eagles

"reid is bringing in this guy to coach with him in KC"

they arent talking about reids time with the EAGLES

there is a difference there

Cunningham dodging Bruce Smith in the end zone and finding Fred Barnett is the reason I am an Eagles fan. Saw it on a highlights package back in the early 90s when we did not get as much NFL in Scotland as we do now and was hooked.

It's still relevant.  The guy was here for 14 years and had major impact.  Get used to it, every draft pick, FA, coaching decision and then KC's results will be tracked next year.  He will be compared to Chip Kelly every move he makes.  It's like saying you can't talk about the previous president the minute the election is over, or if a TV show replaces an actor don't talk about the previous actor only the current one.

Loved Randall, but let's face it - while with the Eagles, he didn't bring his A game when needed the most.  I went to his last game as an Eagle which was a playoff loss in Dallas.  Rodney Peete was driving the team toward a td in the first quarter when he was knocked out of the game.  Randall's child was born that week, and he didn't prepare for the game - which turned out to be a blowout.
