That's what I meant by the big picture. You can't say going from worst to first but just missing out on a championship isn't an accomplishment. You can't say that it isn't a building block for years to come. It's not that black and white, when you're building a franchise looking at one single year is not only retarded it's short-sighted and will get you in trouble. Again, I'm just generally speaking for any team in any sport, it's not cut and dry nor black and white.

They had a good year but they choked at a big game, like they are historically known for. Good year but not a great one. You could actually see the fear and uneasy feelings in McNabb's face when the camera was on him during the later part of the game, and IMO his last pass was sloppy and rushed- more than what's normal for a quarterback with the defense closing in.
