Losing mainstays like Jonathan Vilma, Roman Harper, Lance Moore, Will Smith, Malcolm Jenkins and Darren Sproles certainly signal a new era is here.

Sproles so far is the only player that hurt.i will judge this off season after we see what happens to Jimmy. that money has to come from some where or there is a trade in the works. either way that last move is also going to hurt. till then i wait on passing judgement
