Don't Think the Eagles Can't Overtake the Cowboys

Based on your hype, Dak will continue to be paid and criticized, while Jalen will be overhyped and become the next QB to be paid!

Will Hurts deserve to be paid? I think he has another 2 years on his contract. Will the Eagles sign him to a long term deal and avoid the problem Jerry created with Dak? Will they use on of their 3 first round picks on another QB?

Good point, If Eagles pull it off this year and win the NFC East, Eagles will use their 3 one's on a non-QB and that will be their doom.
 
The Eagles are just a better run, better coached team and organization. I mean they have the balls to hire a young innovative guy like Sirianna and let their franchise QB go in Wentz. The Cowboys go for the stale old farts and flashy toothless players
 
Dak vs Mac Jones?
Who'd you rather?


If the Eagles overtake the Cowboys, everything the OP said will come true. Dak sucks and fire McCarthy will be the screams heard around the world.
 
What if they don't??? I just want the Eagles to lose at least one of their games before they met the Cowboys, just so that this forum can stop panicking over them and hyping them up.
 
Didn't Tampa Bay go from 6-2, lose 3 of 4 to go 7-5 after 12 games?
 
I know, I hate hypotheticals too, but this occurred to me today and I wanted to get the board's thoughts now before the end of the season.

What if the Eagles and Jalen Hurts overtake the Cowboys and win the division? What will the discussion about Dak and Hurts be if that should happen? I am not asking if it will or suggesting it will happen. I am asking how people think the conversation with go if it does happen.

I can imagine the calls to fire McCarthy will be numerous and loud. I also suspect the anti-Dak posts will multiply by a lot. But what about Hurts? He will be the QB of the division champs.
We lose to the Saints the Eagles will win the division.....
 
What else is there to say but...so be it.

Will have to congratulate the eagles for beating the odds and doing what the so called experts said couldn't happen.

It's a game. Everyone will survive.

Go Cowboys!
 
OP....
I would do the honorable thing and fall on my sword. Is that what your looking for?
:flagwave:
 
You misunderstood my question. It's not that I think it should be Dak vs Hurts, but I believe many people will make it about Dak vs. Hurts. If you don't think so then that is an answer to the question. Notice I also said there would be calls to fire McCarthy. Look at the board today. We get at least 3 or 4 Dak threads to discuss. If the Cowboys don't win the division and Philly does, do you really believe there will not be conversations about Dak?

The question I am asking is how you feel the general population of fans will react to the Eagles taking over the division and the so far negative assessment of Hurts as a QB and at the same time the negativity that follows Dak after every loss.

So, you post here. Enough so that you have 5600 posts. You have almost 2000 more likes. So you are not a novice on this board. Your title under your Stratocaster, or knock off Strat, suggests you are a Well Known Member.

And you start a thread asking how the general population will react if Dallas misses the play-offs and the Eagles make the play-offs. I have questions.

1. Do you read the posts on this board after the games? After wins, and after losses?

2. Do you see a central theme in the temperament of fans here when the team losses?

3. Considering there are posters - and I will not call them fans because they come out of the woodwork only when Dallas losses to call out specific players to gloat about their position of trolling this board - and how they litter the threads with one singular theme about money and the mistake made by the ownership in paying that specific player. Do you see those threads, open them, and read the responses?

4. Do you read the blind blame game going on when the team losses by real fans looking to blame someone for the way the fans feel?

5 Do you simply sit and consider questions for the masses here without reading, researching, or taking the temperature of the populace here before posting a thread?

If you answer yes to any of these questions, other than 5, how can you start this thread? Wouldn't the answer be obvious?

Or was this an impulse thread? Or worse yet, another attempt to stir the shate.

It is this kind of "How do you feel," question that is now a staple of the sport's journalists who either don't understand the game, or have any idea of a hard hitting question, and supplant those with the touchy feely comments we see today.

I'll say it. The league has been watered down to such a degree that sports journalism resembles a pap smear.

And I should care about Hurts because?
