Would probably be a fun game to watch and wouldn't be surprised if it turns into a shootout.

Can someone explain to me how it's possible to hate an AFC team more than a division rival, especially in the NFC East where there are 50+ years of built up hatred?

The only way I can see someone logically hating an AFC team more than an NFC East opponent may be if you live in Pittsburgh, NE, etc. Otherwise, it baffles me. Especially NE, with whom we have no historic rivalry whatsoever (like we do with the Steelers in the 70s).

By the way, if someone would have told you in 2001 the Patriots would win FIVE SuperBowls (or more??) before Dallas would win just 1 more that person would have been committed to an asylum.......

I guess it's because I am a millennial and haven't lived to see a Cowboys-Steelers rivalry, but I don't have any hatred towards that team.

Likewise. Not even a shred of hatred for the Steelers or any other AFC team for that matter.

Giants > Eagles > Commanders > Packers > any other NFC team > AFC teams.

I can't stand Brady and the Patriots...or the Eagles. IF they meet in the big game, who do you root for? I'm not rooting for the Pats so there's that...........

Patriots, just like in 2004.

I'd root for the Eagles vs the Steelers, though. I'd root for the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse against the Steelers.

How about you just root for the electricity to go out and the nfl being forced to cancel that travesty of a game?

I would be rooting for anything to go wrong just to make Goodell look bad.

I would never root for the Eagles in the SB though..never.
