Yeah, because Philly fans aren't arrogant, and I don't even live in their area.

Folks, a Giants win would have = a home game for Dallas for the NFCCC IF they win tomorrow. I am not happy the Giants are being exposed. There's nothing good from this if you're a Dallas fan. Nothing. Can't spin it any other way.
I feel like Dallas is its own worst enemy. Almost just as likely to lay an egg vs the Giants as against the Eagles. It doesn't really matter who the opponent is, or even where the game is played...

If we show up though, we can beat anybody.

What is your issue?
all teams would kneel down, even if the other teams has TO’s. The game was already won.
This is Philly. Its head coach is a perfect fit for that city and its fans.

Lots of hand wringing because a hated team took it to another hated team but didn’t do it right. Scared

And they had a tough time with hurts beating us with our back up qb throwing 3 picks. You seem to forgot about that.
I remember those INTs very well but he was playing solid football until that game. Philly was the only team that forced him into turning the ball over. Dak had an INT in the second matchup. We need to worry about tomorrow’s game.

My issue is ur wrong. I'm not saying teams shouldn't (maybe it's discouraged to start kneeling that far out, IDK) but all teams will hand off till they get closer to 0:00. They just do. We would have run there too.

Daboll rested his starters against the Eagles. Who knows what would have happened in week 18, but the point is that he didn't try and the result is having his team go on a round against a team they know from experience they have a difficult time beating. Maybe they could have lucked out and hoped to get Purdy turning into a pumpkin but instead gave the number one seed away to the Eagles. And did it while knowing the Eagles could be an opponent his team would face 2 weeks after week 18.

Is it okay to quit on the Gnats now? Or is that still evil thing to do?

Look at a 4 win season and a HC who wants to leave because he knows theres no chance of winning anytime soon.
So would you rather win 1 Super Bowl in 10 years, even if you only win 5 games for 5 seasons after the title, or make the playoffs 10 straight years and be eliminated?

Me? I'd sacrifice five seasons to win a Super Bowl.

That doesn't matter to me. If it costs you five years, it's still worth it. We've gone 27 years without a title. I'd rather go all in than just miss multiple times. Now, the problem, of course, is that you don't know even if you go all in that it will result in a title. But when it does, like it did with the Rams, I can't criticize the decision.
You said it. Going all in does not guarantee a title. I’ve seen the Cowboys go all in with Roy Williams, Joey Galloway, Terrell Owen and Amari Cooper and they paid the price.

We were 8-8 three straight years. Lost division title three straight years to all our rivals. Can't get much worst than that.

If they were passing then it would be an issue. Gotta tackle
