LANDOVER, Md. - "They are who we thought they were."
- Denny Green, and everyone who watched the Eagles lose at Washington.
It was 10 years ago to the day that the emotional coach of the Arizona Cardinals exploded with his famous rant at a press conference following a particularly galling loss.
A decade later Denny is gone, but the words apply again.
The Eagles, once 3-0 and the darlings of the NFL, continued their descent to normalcy Sunday with a 27-20 loss at Washington. Their brilliant start caught the football world by surprise, and with good reason.
