I agree wtih your point that 91 Eagles belong in convo but this part is an exaggeration.


Kim Herring and Andre Waters is a wash at strong safety.

Michael McCrary before injury I would take over prime Clyde Simmons. And at worst it's a wash. Clyde Simmons was known for taking plays off, McCrary never took a play off and was a monster, just imagine if he had been playing opposite Reggie White.

Ray and Seth didn't play the same position. The 2000 Ravens have the better linebacking corps anyway. Seth Joyner is one of the greatest linebackers of ALL TIME, in my opinion but RAvens had the best MLB of the modern era, flanked by PEter fucking Boulware and Jamie Sharper.
