3) At the time Andy's horizontal passing attack was innovative. It isn't anymore.

Kinda, that's all true, but...
Andy won in Philly because of Jim Johnson's defense.
When Johnson died, so did Reid's domination of the NFC East.
The reason Reid NEVER took the next step, even with that stellar defense??
BECAUSE HE'S A TERRIBLE HEAD COACH.
