Harrison to Eagles next year? (1 Viewer)

[Jason Wood]

Yea but there is another side to maybe why Harrison would CONSIDER Philly.  I'm not saying its gonna happen.  But Harrison is a Syracuse product, and during college, him and Donovan were on point.  They made each other premiere college players.  They remain good friends.  Yes, Harrison is very comfortable in Indy, but I think he'd also be very comfortable in Philly playing with his old friend and a QB that he has proven great chemistry with....on a team with a better shot at a ring than Indy (maybe even more so if Edge is gone next year).

Hmmm.....Harrison's first year in the NFL was 1996. McNabb's first year in the NFL was 1999. That means that McNabb would have been a freshman when Marvin was a senior. Are you sure you're not thinking of McNabb and Kevin Johnson? I don't think either of these guys "made the other better". I'm not sure they even played together much...............

That's not true actually...Harrison set the Syracuse receiving record with 1,131 yards in 1995, McNabb's first year as a starter (remember McNabb was a four year starter at the Cuse). Harrison was McNabb's go-to guy for his first two years, replaced by KJ (who actually was this close to beating McNabb for the QB job when they were both freshmen).

1995 would have been Harrison's last year at Syracuse, since he was in the NFL in 1996. So the original poster was right, they only played together one year, 1995.

Right...1995 = drafted in 1996. McNabb started in 1995 when Mo set the record, and was the starter in 1995-98.

Either way, Marvin played with McNabb for one year.With Manning for, what, 7 now?McNabb and TO are "best buddies" Peyton and Marvin need each other. (yes, they both make each other better)So, why exactly would Marvin leave Indy for Philly?Besides, it would piss off TO.If you want to dream about an offense (aside from what Indy already has) imagine Marvin on Kansas City. (maybe he can play CB as well)

Clearly KC needs a versatile WR like Troy Brown... to shore up that DB situation.Someone said the NFC East is the worst division in football - which is flat out wrong. It might be the best division in the NFC, beacuase it's got the best team in the NFC. My pick for worst divsion is the NFC West with AZ & SF, and St. Louis leading it.

He WILL be a Colts next season barring a nasty ##### slapping of Peyton Manning on national TV before the end of the year.The greatest aerial attack is being witnessed this year in Indy, not any year with Donovan "get it close" McNabb at QB.Marvin and PM have helped each other over the years. Get a copy of Marvin's highlight reel to see how he has helped PM. And count the number of targets to Marvin over the years to see how PM has helped him.The Eagles haven't proven a thing to this point on how to win a Superbowl. They are in the worst division in football IMHO. And the NFC is FAR inferior to the AFC this year.

Can I be a "Colts" also?LOL at Ind being closer to a SuperBowl than Phi. If McNabb is refered to "get it close", does that make Manning "not even close"?

Hey JAA,Is it harder to get to the super bowl through the AFC or the NFC???? That should answer your question as to why the eagles have been in the NFC championship 3 years in a row and the Colts only 1 AFC championship game!!! Stop being illogical and making homer posts!!

are you still rofl???? The AFC is 32-18 against the NFC this year. So why the !!!! JAA, I really believe you have the worst posts on this board from what i've read. Know the FACTS before you start throwing misleading information around. Get a clue about the NFL before you start posting.

The AFC has been superior head-to-head for the last six years. It has simply been the tougher conference during that stretch. Period.

The NFC wasn't always the cupcake conference it is this year. So, to say that it is easier to get to the SuperBowl through the NFC is misleading bordering on being outright incorrect. Remember that over the years it has been possible for a Wild Card team to make it to the SuperBowl in the AFC while in the NFC it has really only been the #1, #2, or #3 seed that has been able to advance. It is hard to say exactly why this has been the case, but the fact remains that over the past two decades the NFC's SuperBowl representative has been the team with a consitantly stronger regular-season record, while in the AFC a team that snuck into the playoffs has often been able to get hot and make the Bowl.

 

[Fumbleweed]

You are correct up until about six years ago. For about 12 years (roughly 1985-1997), the NFC was the dominant conference, but you're basing your statement on that era and not the last six years or so. The AFC has been the better conference head-to-head now for a number of seasons............

Well, this was fun while it lasted, but Mo just signed a new $66 million, 7-year extension to remain a Colt.
