Eagles went to the Superbowl with TO, Cowboys were the #1 seed in the NFC 2 years ago.
How do you explain that TO made these teams better?
Eagles were good the prior 3 years before TO joined them. The Eagles made it to the NFC Championship game 3 years in a row before TO. In 2003 the Eagles were 12-4 without TO. In 2004 the Eagles finished 13-3, finally winning the NFC Champ game that year and advancing to the SB. TO also got injured in game 15 of that year so he did not finish the final 2 games nor did he play in the playoffs. So basically TO did not give the Eagles a better record or even get them to the SB because he did not play the final 4 games.
1n 2005 Dallas was 9-7. When TO joined them in 2006 they finished 9-7 losing in the first round of the playoffs. The following year they went 13-3 losing the first round in the playoffs. In 2008 they were back to 9-7.
So in the 5 year span with the Eagles and Cowboys, TO netted a total of 4 more wins combined WHEN PLAYING. Not much of an impact in my book.
By these calculations, the Bills should end this upcoming season at 8-8 or 9-7 at best.
