The Philadelphia Eagles went out and addressed their biggest need via trade by acquiring middle linebacker DeMeco Ryans from the Houston Texans for a fourth round draft pick.</p>

This move instantly makes the Eagles favorites for the Super Bowl from the NFC.</p>

Ryans
was voted 2006 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award after recording
155 tackles, but it was his two Pro Bowl appearances in 2007 and 2009
that catapulted him to stardom.</p>

An Achilles injury in 2010 cost
him the whole second half of that season, but it was his lackluster play
in 2011 coupled with defensive coordinator Wade Phillips 3-4 scheme that ultimately got the 28-year-old linebacker shipped to Philly.</p>

Eagles’ coach Andy Reid said in a statement obtained by the Philadelphia Inquirer:</p> <blockquote>

DeMeco
is a proven Pro Bowl linebacker in this league and we're excited to be
able to plug him into the middle of our defense. He's been the signal
caller and a leader on a very good Texans defense for the last several
years. He's a tough, instinctive football player and he'll be a great
fit for our team.

These kinds of stories couldn't be any better for the Giants.

This has been a great day for Giants football. One of our biggest threats in the NFC basically had their spines broke by Goodell today, the Jets took all of the attention of the NY media away from us, and the Eagles are already drawing a huge target on their backs.

Another year where we'll quietly win the division and quietly make a playoff run is in the making I hope.

yea that's a bunch of nonsense...vegas will tell you very differently

Yup, standard Bleacher Report article.

Sounds about right.

lol "Instantly" huh? Whatever they want to say to justify their bias for the Eagles but uh remember BR

The Eagles should be pretty good this year.

I mean obviously, DeMeco Ryans is the best linebacker in the league, and by far, the MLB position is the most important position in football. That will get them over the hump. He instantly makes Michael Vick a tougher quarterback.

It's great. Somehow the Giants are perpetual underdogs. It's awesome motivation for this team.

Victor Cruz said on ESPN Live today that ELi was one of the best, if not THE best QB in the league. Wonder if the media will make a big deal out of it, say how Eli is def. not the best, and then Eli proves them wrong this year.

Yeah man, the only reason the Texans were willing to trade him for a 4th is that they are complete idiots. If they weren't so stupid they'd know they just traded away the best player in the game! Gosh! What a bunch of morons, they just handed our rivals the Lombardi!

So it's settled then. The next super bowl will be between the Eagles and Jets... both teams with undeafeated records... ending up in a Philadelphia win, after Vick is declared MVP and a Demigod. The dream team will be hailed as the best team ever, due to their play and touchdown celebrations.... and they won't do a music video called 'we are the dream team', but the rest of the league will unite to celebrate the Eagles in their rendition of 'we are the world... hail to the dream team'. Oh, and the Lombardi trophy will be renamed the Andy Reid trophy, which will be redesigned to reflect his stature.

I can't wait until next season already, and see them fall flat on their face... LOL.
