If Freeman is soooo good how come nobody signed him until a week before the season started??????It smacks of desperation by the Eagles to fill a hole with someone NOBODY else wanted.If it was because Freeman wouldn't sign until then it just proves the point......he is self centered and didn't want to have to go through camp.The problem with Free is that he can't rely on just his athleticism anymore.....his other problems are he isn't coachable and doesn't practice well.....bad combinations.
Terry Glenn is the much better risk based on his "burst" alone.If he becomes an overwhelming problem Sherman will dump him in a heart beat ....like that safety chris atkins last year.

I know thats how you HOPE it will play out but make no mistake, Glenn wont get the chances he had in New England. If he slips up he's gone

<<i do have football savvy and i do suggest exactly that>>

I don't think many people would agree that Glenn's suspension won the Super Bowl for the Pats.

<<And your being just plain stubborn arguing a topic you don't know the details.>>

I'm not being stubborn. 1 Player does not win or lose championships - Teams do. Being an Eagles fan I know this is something you're not familiar with.

<<The Last laugh will be mine>>

It depends what will drive that laugh. If its an Eagles Super Bowl win I guess thats worthy of a last laugh. If its just that the Packers wont win the Super Bowl then maybe you better raise the bar. In the midwest winning is what counts.
