Buddy Ryan was a moron as a head coach, basically threw Randall out there to die

 

[larry david]

A Defense That Rewrote the Record Books[edit][/h3]

Philadelphia's defensive finished the season ranked first in the NFL in fewest passing yards, rushing yards, and total yards allowed. As such, the Eagles became only the fifth club in NFL history and the first since 1975 to accomplish this rare triple. Five members of that defensive unit represented the Eagles in the Pro Bowl – DEs Reggie White and Clyde Simmons, DT Jerome Brown, and LB Seth Joyner were selected as starters while CB Eric Allen also made the NFC squad. The selection of White, Simmons, and Brown marked only the sixth time in NFL history that three defensive linemen from one team were elected to the Pro Bowl.
In addition, the Eagles' defense led the NFL in sacks and fumble recoveries and tied for the league lead in takeaways. The Eagles' 48 defensive takeaways in 1991 is tied for the most in the NFL in the 1990s.[SUP][2][/SUP]

Who the hell was their QB, Hebert? He was horrible and I don't think they had any WRs either.

Did those post also come with wiki paragraph's that the poster was too lazy to even format in the same text, or nah?

As a cowboys fan, we can talk about the 90's or we can talk about the 2008-2009 season... I'll let you choose.
