Last I checked, neither Philly nor Denver have won a super bowl any time recently (or at least not since the Elway years). And with their phenominal "base" players, the Eagles ended up last in the NFC East last year?

There are enough examples of teams that won by way of FA aquisitions, good luck and good drafting as there are teams that lose year in and year out due to FA aquisitions, bad luck and poor drafting. The 3 keys to building championship teams is coaching, chemistry and uhhh...something else that starts with a "c".

Philly hasn't won a SB but wen't to 4 consecutive championships games i nthe past 5 years tahts a championship caliber team... and tell me the last time Denver had a mediocare team you know a team that went 5 -11 like ours has thats a championship caliber team a team that's allways is competing and has a posibility to go for the superbowl.

Well, then that's your definition of "championship caliber". For me, I don't see any reason to pattern our franchise after a team like the Eagles when they've never won a super bowl, and when they've lost 3 out of 4 NFC championship games (two of which at their own stadium). The Broncos are lucky to make it out of the first round of the playoffs every year. To me, that's not "championship caliber". It might be "playoff caliber", but when you can't even make it to the AFC championship game, you're pretty darn far away from any kind of "championship".
