Hopes are high for the 09′ Eagles. With the acquisition of Michael Vick, the Eagles fans should expect some wild cat offense perhaps - if Vick doesn’t amount to much then he wasn’t worth the headache.

In 09′, the Eagles are a team with one significant part, Michael Vick - whether Vick will be factor is yet to be determined. Sitting out a few years can really slow him down.

The Panthers nearly made the Super Bowl last season, and had one of the strongest finishes in the league. This was by all means an impressive victory, and the offense and defense alike both played their parts.

The Eagles still do not have an overwhelming wide receiving unit - the Eagles offense is “death by a thousand papercuts.” However, there’s definitely some potential out wide.

As a result, the Eagles were forced to play without their star quarterback during their showdown against the New Orleans Saints in Philadelphia in week 2. The Saints are highly effective on offense, but their defense was just as proficient when it came to shutting down backup quarterback Kevin Kolb.

New Orleans won easily by a score of 48-22. The Eagles are now 1-1 in a very competitive division, where every win will matter.

The Eagles are contenders to win the NFC East and possibly the NFC conference. Many believe Michael Vick will not be a major factor in the success in the Eagles - who will be is McNabb and how healthy he can stay during the course of the season.

The Eagles are in a very strong division, it will be a battle all season long for NFC East supremacy surely. Will it be the Eagles?
