NFL ALL Decade Team 2000's

Click here to see who was nominated to be on the All Decade team for the 2000's decade.
You'll notice that two Eagles are on the team. Brian Dawkins at safety and David Akers at kicker.
There's not much argument there as they've been two of the most dominant players in their respective positions for most of the decade. Both of them represented the Eagles completely as very hard working, consistent, and professional athletes who plays the game with passion. David Akers, out of Louisville, just came off one his best season's ever where he was second in the NFL in total points in 2009.
Brian Dawkins was the leader of this team that has been one of the most consistent winning franchises in the NFL. He spent most of career with the Eagles, after getting drafted out of Clemson, until this past season in 2009, in which he signed as a free agent with the Denver Broncos. It was a pretty emotional split as Brian Dawkins has been a fan favorite of the city for such a long time. He went on to have another Pro Bowl year with the Denver Broncos as he stepped in without losing a step.
Terrell Owens makes the All Decade team as well and is known for his memorable years with the Eagles, both terrible and fantastic.
