Revisionist History

Spadaro makes a number of good points in this piece about the future of the Eagles' offense, but this part is a little hard to swallow:
It isn't all about the wide receiver, folks. Back in 2004, the Eagles added Terrell Owens and the offense was terrific. But for those who focus only on that season, I'll remind you that the Eagles had a great offense the year before and that, yeah, the offense went up and down the field in the NFC playoff victories over Minnesota and Atlanta while Owens was recovering from his ankle injury.
Quick comparison:
Little bit of a difference there.
And as for the part about the playoffs ... the offense wasn't that great in those two games, nor were the Eagles facing championship-caliber defenses.
