Rebuild or Reload? The Eagles - 3

A famous line from Omar Gaithers an Eagles linebacker. He states "...The Eagles are not an organization that needs to rebuild. We reload. I like to use that term because we have a lot of playmakers on offense and defense." Why might one say this? Becuase the eagles lost 4 starters not including their ever so consistance Brian Westbrook and of course including Donovan McNabb who's chilling over there in washington. Yet as stated they're not rebuilding there just uhm? Hiring a bunch of new people and putting in people they have trained but almost never played after getting rid of four of there starters. Whats the definition of rebuilding? But i would never doubt Andy Reid and his NEW assistant coach, NEW lindebackers, NEW quarterbacks, NEW wide recievers, NEW running backs, and NEW deffensive backs. It's still the same old eagles. Although I would never doubt any opinion made by a couch of the NFL I find there quarterback situation odd. We all know of there pick of Michael Vick a quarterback who never seconed anyone until last year. Then we have Kevin Kolb. The back up QB for the eagles for around three seasons. Now one might think "throw in Vick, you know the one thats already a proffesinal QB?" But now that i've said this I suppose you already know what they acctually did. Yes Kevin Kolb will be starting us off this year (as far as we know) and I'm not saying this man has no potential. For every time he's been thrown in a game he goes for 100% accuracy, even if he only throws one pass... But has made up over 300 yards which averages 100 yards per season which is not bad at all for a second string quarter back. He's got the jersey, He's got the guts, lets see if he's got the skill.
