First it was the Rams, next it was the Panthers and this Sunday it is going to be the Eagles.

Tom Brady and the New England Patriots are going to ruffle the Eagles’ feathers this Sunday after they win their third Super Bowl in four years.

For Philadelphia this Sunday is the biggest thing to happen to the city since Rocky knocked out the Russian (Drago) in 1985.

The Patriots have more talent than the Eagles and out match them in arguably all categories.

You can’t really compare the quarterback styles between Tom Brady and Donovan McNabb.

But one thing is for sure, Brady is the better quarterback. People who criticize Brady look at his stats every week, but what most don’t realize is his winning percentage is all that matters. Tom Brady is an insane 8-0 in the playoffs.

What does Donavan McNabb have to show for his short career?

Bottom line is that Brady may not be as athletic as McNabb, but McNabb can’t win the big game and Brady wins the big game with not making mistakes.

At running back, Corey Dillon, the free agent acquisition from Cincinnati has lived up to the hype. The Patriots had already won two Super Bowls and never really had a running game until this season and that’s the main reason they picked up Dillon. he has great size and power and is the typical stud running back in the NFL.

Eagles back Brian Westbrook has emerged this season as one of the best all around backs in the league. I would name Westbrook my award for Mr. Underrated player of the year.

The difference in the Super Bowl will be the running game. Whoever can run the bowl and make the defense bringing eight or even nine in the box, will the game.

This makes me give the edge to Corey Dillon because of their big offensive line and the Patriots defense that is excellent at stopping the run.

The receivers are a joke. If the Eagles don’t have Terrell Owens they have no passing game. The Eagles’ receivers besides Owens are so bad that the Browns wouldn’t even take them.

Todd Pinkston or should I say Stinkston who is too soft to go over the middle. The Patriots receivers are very talented. They are all average receivers.

The Patriots have at least five good passing targets. The speedy Deon Branch, physical David Givens, all around talent Troy Brown, deep threat David Patten and big tight end Daniel Graham. If T.O. plays this Sunday then he can make up for any receiver tandem in the league, but the question is will T.O. be at 100 percent?

The defensive units are both respectable.

Each unit has their strong points. The Eagles secondary is amazing and the Patriots linebackers are amazing. The Eagles have a weak rush defense and this is the big weakness of the team. Even though they have three pro-bowlers in the secondary, Brady will find a way to split them apart.

The Patriots’ linebackers are underrated. Tedi Bruschi, Ohio State stud Mike Vrabel, Roosevelt Colvin and Ted Johnson. Like Peyton Manning said all four of these linebackers should have been pro bowlers.

Overall, the Patriots defense is more physical and more determined. Freddy Mitchell made comments about Pats’ safety Rodney Harrison; this is just the spark that the Patriots’ defense wanted.

The coaching staffs are also very talented, but the Patriots have the edge in this category as well.

Head coach Bill Bilichick is a genius and his coordinators are outstanding, too.

Romeo Crennel, their defensive coordinator, has created a dominant defense. His 3-4 blitzing schemes have confused defenses for the past three years. Offensive coordinator Charlie Weis can call the right play at any time and keep the other defense off balance.

Obviously, these two coordinators are the best, because of what they have accomplished. Weis is headed to Notre Dame and Crennel should be heading to Cleveland to coach the Browns after the Super Bowl. Just like McNabb, Eagles coach Andy Reid can’t win the big game.

The sports gods looking down upon earth have blessed the Boston area fans this season. The Red Sox shocked the world and I see it as a sign. The Patriots and Red Sox can do it in the same season. When New England wins this Sunday they will join the elite dynasties in the NFL. Like the 70s Steelers, 80s 49ers and 90s Cowboys.

The Super Bowl has always been America’s biggest fake holiday and what team is better to represent the league then the Patriots, America’s new team.
