Cowboys or Eagles. Who Recovers the Fastest?

The Eagles fell apart the last part of the season. They started losing and their hot shot QB played poorly. They reportedly had locker room dissention. They seemed to get worse and worse as the season wore on. It ended last night with a 32-9 blowout loss to an average TB team.

The Cowboys like the Eagles had high hopes at season start. But when faced with good competition they struggled and took a few real beat downs. GB blew them away in Dallas in the play offs 48-32. Their QB continued to play well against poor teams and not so well against the better ones. There were even reported rumblings from some players of dissatisfaction the way things were going.

Both teams have issues far beyond the QB play. Indeed the QBs may not even be the real problem.

The question here is which team recovers fastest and gets better? When you consider the GM and management and their track records I say the Eagles are more likely to find the fix first. Howard Roseman has been successful in the past. That does not guarantee he can repair this Eagle team but given his track record I feel the Eagles are in the better position.

Hate to say it but Eagles.

Eagles have won a SB.. rebuilt again, made the SB.. and then wheels fell off this year.. all that in the same time as Dak has led us to continued failure.

I have no doubt that Eagles will make the right changes and be right back at the pointy end next season.

Meanwhile I think JJ does fire MM but he extends Dak.. they feel that a few tweaks and a couple of players will get them there. Rinse and repeat for the next 6 years.

The Eagles without a doubt as they have a better GM and QB.
All they need is a stud Coach.

The Eagles have lapped the Cowboys several times this century already so the smart money in on them to turn it around because they have the recent track record.

The Cowboys have not recovered in almost 30 years.

Eagles as they have a real GM.

They fired a SB winning HC at the first point of regression, made changes and made another SB and likely fire that coach soon too.

Same with the Players. They are not afraid to spend in FA

I agree with the consensus, as much as i hate and detest that team, they at least don't have Jerry strapped around their necks plunging them into the abyss. Stephen I don't trust will make the right decision either. After that, who knows which of the Jones clan will take over, but that may be twenty-five to thirty years from now. Who knows if civilization is even around to care about Super Bowls.

Eagles because they are more willing to get rid of guys. And it appears the owner has no issue getting rid of a HC, even a SB one, when things slide.

They are proactive and not reactive.
This 100%.

Jerry aint doing a thing until all the best opportunities for us to improve are off the table. Then we will get the standard “ We like our guys “ type **** we always get fed.

Exactly! If Hurtz has another season like he just had, he will be gone!
Jerry would extend him and keep on putting down bad money after bad money!
Jerry loves Dak, so you know he will be extending him in the next few weeks. Yippee!

I don’t know. Kelce now retired. Their defense is old and crusty. Who knows with AB.

Yep.

I think Jerry overrates how good this roster is. He looks at what guys do well. Without a thought about what they don't do well.
