Yeah, both of those games at home, ours were on the road. Jaguars game was also played early in season before they got it together. They were a more formidable opponent later in the season when we played them. Those are just the breaks the Eagles got. It is their year, plain and simple.
What's this got to do with this Sunday? People need to stop worrying about the future, if Philly was so worried about next season and the ones after that, then they would be at home like the Cowboys.
Yup, and they will continue to have a huge advantage at the GM position too so they will optimize their resources while “we like our guys…”
You’re kinda missing the point, the Eagles were rapidly aging team who’s management thought were a couple of players away. They took a shot, the same shot others have tried and failed. They beat the odds. At no time in the last 10 years have I looked the roster and thought we were a player or 2 away. We sure as **** weren’t last year. When you get there, then you take your shot. No point in blowing up your team for the next 5 years for premature wet dream!
Recently, the Rams, Bucs, KC and Philly have taken shots and are winning. Tell the Joneses that if they're scared then stay on the porch like they've done the last 28 years.
The bottom line is they split with them. They were very close. The Eagles were just a little better in the long run.
The Rams suck. The Bucs suck. One of the Eagles or Chiefs will lose tomorrow. The Cowboys were close this year and will be good next year as well.
Chiefs primarily went draft. Eagles, Rams, and especially the Bucs thought they were a player or 2 away. We’re not, nor have we been close to that category. All 3 of those teams did have some major cap issues coming up, and the Rams are almost back to be a national embarrassment!
This article tells you all you need to know.
I believe the Eagles are better in the trenches on both sides of the ball that’s where we have to move improve
Yep. How many times have you heard, " Games are won or lost in the trenches"?
Yep and it amazes me how it’s overlooked.
Team was 12-5, 2 seasons in a row, tells me they’re drafting well, resigning the right players and not having to chase outside FAs that fail 75-80% of the time. But yeah, I get it, most fans have a simplistic “grass is greener on the other side” mentality towards roster building!
Yayyyyyyyy......we were 24-10 in two years and you're happy? Philly won a super bowl, fired their coach and qb, hired and drafted new ones and are back in the super bowl again. That's what happen when you decide that "happy to be in the middle" is not good enough. That 24-10 record got them watching the game just like me and you, on their own TVs.
Lol! There you have it! Go root for the Eagles. I stick with management that’s trying to build a team that can compete long term, instead of a coming disaster created from running the team like a spoiled child in need of instant gratification and it’s the last year there will be football. Go on now…get!!!
They've been doing that for 30 years how's that worked out? When will we cash in a SB championship? Or will we just be good enough with drafting and resigning our own to just make the playoffs? The evidence says we'll just be good enough to make the playoffs like we've been doing.
