Ok so they will be also rans for a few years and be back. Great.
I'd trade places with them. Wouldn't you, or are you saying you would rather keep our 28 year streak than contend, rebuild, contend, rebuild, etc?

And we sit her 28 years since the last time we did anything

And you still have gomers here defending the clown show
But those complaining still follow this franchise and watch their teams, right? Don't be a hypocrite complaining about this franchise, yet you keep following and watching it.

No but if you and millions of others stopped blindly following and believing this teams FO maybe a change would occur.

Regardless of that fact. If you stopped talking the way you do about how great this team is you may actually have some credibility on this board.
This is rich...complaining about those who believe, follow and watch this team/franchise.

Aren't you doing the same? Don't you also still follow and watch this team/franchise year after year after year? Why don't you heed your own advice?

SMDH. :facepalm:

I like your 5 superbowls better than their 1.

I don't say how great they are.

I am critical of the things that are wrong. Namely Zeke, OC, and weapons
You literally are discrediting the eagles FO by talking about how well ours is doing. After 27 years of failure.

You can follow and also expect better. Not wave your blue and silver pom poms everytime they get eliminated from the playoffs again and our biggest rival laps us to another NFCCG.

I will follow of course. But it doesnt mean I dont expect change. Sitting there and discrediting the eagles FO and what they have accomplished in 3 years compared to the Cowboys last 27 is where I draw the line. I would kill for a GM that actually goes all in and makes moves to win now. Instead of saving cap space for the next season and manipulating the cap to bring in guy that can help now.

I know…it’s insane. It’s amazing (and hilarious) to see how far some homers can take things while thinking they are being objective.

Why would they be also-rans? They’ve churned the roster 3 times now since 2015. And in that time Theyve made the playoffs 5 of the last 6 years, won 6 playoff games in that span, and their current GM has won the division with FOUR different pro bowl QBs since Mcnabb left.

There is no data indicating they will require downtime to rebuild if that’s necessary

Is it offensive to you because I disagree with how they build their team? I also disagreed with the Rams approach.

Rams were a Tarte drop from being a complete mess without a title. Now they are just a complete mess with one.

The Eagles had the moons align for them in 2017. It has been a similar season for them this year. Let's see what happens.

Shame? Why would Jerry feel shame now? You think trashy Philly would be the last straw? The rivalry only matters to the fans, and maybe a couple players. Check to see what both teams are worth, then ask yourself that question about Daddy & Son again.

Since they last built their super bowl team in 2017....they went....

9-7
9-7
4-11-1
9-8
This year relevant again.

1 playoff win in that span.

If they have to tear it down after this year...i don't think it will be this bad but it won't be 14-3 either.

No its offensive because you refuse to admit that the way they build their team is to win. Now.

You want to wait another 27 years basically since the FO is doing such a bang up job. The Eagles are built to win now, and in future years. You do realize on top of being in the NFCCG this year. They have a top ten pick. THIS YEAR!

We are picking at 26. So not only are they ahead of us in the draft, they are also a game away from a SB appearance. And literally traded away a horrible contract 2 years ago and are ok cap wise. AGAIN!

The fact you would rather not be a complete mess and have a SB this decade to speak about as opposed to not even getting out of the divisional round yet again is laughable.

Keep watching those youtube videos. Until this team gets aggressive again thats all you will have.

So let me get this straight.

You are using this as an example of what not to do?

They have more playoff wins in the last 5 years than us. But what we are doing is the right way?

Wow.

Which is better than 80% of the nfl in that span.

What was Dallas 2017-2021?

9-7
10-6
8-8
6-10
12-5

Same singular playoff win.

But no SB ring nor a second NFCCG to cap said run. Why is that better or more consistent or in any way preferable? It’s not luck when it’s done again and again.

Oh boy...

Again...the Eagles lose on Sunday it is a FAIL.

Eagles had the 12th pick last year and took a less impactful player than the guy we drafted in the 5th round.

8 players have to be resigned on their defense with no cap. 8. Their RB has to be resigned.

That is off the top of my head.

Wow.
They have the same number of playoff wins in the last 5 years.
