    Humbled by an awful start, the Philadelphia Eagles are ready to bury that "Dream Team" label.

    The defending NFC East champions are 1-3 in a season that began with Super Bowl aspirations. That's their reality.

    "I think the 'Dream Team' -- that word is dead now," quarterback Michael Vick said Wednesday. "You can't talk 'Dream Team' anymore. Maybe it put pressure on some players, maybe it didn't. But I think just the fact that it was lingering around and people were talking about it creates a sense of pressure.

    "So, it's over with now. We're one of the teams that has to scratch and kick from the bottom now and try to figure out how we're going to get ourselves back to a position where we can compete with the best teams in this league."

    I must say, I was one of the ones that thought the Eagles were going to have a dream team. They signed quality players after the lockout was done and did more than almost any other team in such a short period of time. Well, it looks like either it didnt work or it is going to take more time for the team to come together.
