possibly nfc championship or superbowl?

hasn't he already done this on a number of occasions? I seem to remember them almost winning the superbowl a couple years ago.
This year, yes, they can go to the playoffs and possibly the superbowl. They have the potential, especially playing in the NFC. The only tests will be New Orleans, maybe Chicago, maybe Carolina, and Seattle. The Giants are a sleeper team too.

McNabb can if he is healthy. McNabb's multiple season ending injuries have been the result of too many pass plays. When your qb is throwing the ball 35 to 50 times a game there is a great chance for injury. The coaches didnt' place an emphasis on the run until McNabb went down. McNabb is a great qb and is asked to do too much. He also was scrambling a lot which led to some of the injuries.
If the Eagles establish the run, which they have the rbs and offensive line to do, they will have success, McNabb will have success, and the Eagles will win. Running the ball controls the clock too and keeps the defense off the field. The drives with McNabb were ending in quick scores and not giving time for the defense to rest enough.
If the coaching staff gets their act together and makes the right calls the Eagles have a great shot at going to the NFC Championship game or even the Superbowl.

I dont think so...The eagles are getting to be an older team. With donovan they are definitally better but not a championship team. They have the cowboys and the giants to compete with this year. Both out to prove something. The Cowboys are looking to show what they can do, and the giants are looking for revenge for an awful season. The eagles are good, but not goodenough for a superbowl. They might make the playoffs but not 1st seed or NFC east champion.

Of course he will. This team has improved since last year. Kevin Curtis is just as good if not better than Stallworth. What people fail to realize is Stallworth was injured for a large portion of last season. Curtis is more durable, has better hands, is a better route runner, and is just as fast as Stallworth. Tony Hunt is the power back we needed to push the line. The defense was improved by the Spikes trade. The NFC is extremely weak. I don't see how any team other Chicago, New Orleans, or Dallas could keep us out of the playoffs.

He Has Always Had The Ability To Lead That Team To The Playoffs And Beyond. The Problem Is If He Can Stay Healthy Long Enough To Do It. He Has A Great Squad To Help Him Persue The Championship As Well. They Just Need To Keep It Together And Stay Focused....And PROTECT THEIR QUARTERBACK!!!!

Heck no!!! they lost all the little pieces that made the team of 3 years ago such a good team. they have no receiving corps and Westbrooke is a step slower. Besides, coming back from an injury as McNabb is will be hard... the NFC East belongs to the Giants

there is no way donovan mcnabb could get a ring. Every year he gets injured and and he will never be as good as he was when he led the eagles to the superbowl, but dont forget. they did have terrell owens that year

i think a super bowl is possible, but unlikely because mcnabb is very injury prone and the eagles still have a fairly tough road in the nfc, not to mention the line of powerhouse teams in the afc they would have to beat in the super bowl itself...he's a great quarterback but he could end up as the next marino, with great numbers and a ton of playoff appearances but no super bowl appearances

Yes, he brought the Eagles to four straight NFC Championship games. Only won one though.

He can, he's still a top QB. But I don't think the Eagles have enough talent to do much in the playoffs.
