with all the high hopes,talent at every level and that performance by a 14 year vet.If we dont win the next 2, I think we arent going to have a chance in h*ll to make playoffs at all.This was just so bad of a loss it may send this team down the line.Its time to see if the vets and Parcells really are for real now,we shall see.:(

No way it was worse than any playoff loss or the one to the Commanders last or even the Steelers the year before.

On the contrary, I'd say it would have been our biggest, toughest, most-unexpected victory in years.

juckie, this is how i felt sunday night.

watching the game in a house full of eagle fans didnt help. But the main thing that upset me was seeing bledsoe curl up in a ball under pressure instaed of tring to make something happen

we've had MUCH MUCH MUCH worse losses.

ones where we didn't even compete (see just about any campo loss).

winning in Philly was a given actually, if we didn't beat ourselves and don't throw away the game with football idiocy... that is the only tough part about this loss.

Actually the game the Pickle Juice game was it showed the Cowboys had fallen from grace and was going to be a long time before we got back into the good graces of the football gods. This loss is tough loss that while the negatives are obvious it showed that the team as a whole has a lot heart and could have pissed it away after the 1st 5 minutes. They were in it to the end, a couple of years ago this team would have given up after the 1st big play.

I think this was the best "Reset Button" both sides of the line needed, for a wakeup call.

Expect nothing but net from now on....

I think getting blown out by the Commanders last year, 35-7, was the worst loss I've ever experienced as a fan

I agree. This loss was terrible. To be right there in it at the end, only to watch the other team go the other way for 7. I personally hate the Eagles more than the skins, so to me this loss was worse even than last years spanking at fedex.

(although that being the game that pretty much kept us out of the playoffs makes it a lot worse in reality)

A given?? Really? A game on the road for first place in the division was a given? Wow.

we lost to the expansion Texans 4 years ago. That still reigns as the worst loss in years.

I have never felt as absolutely deflated as I did after the 14-13 monday nighter last year. I was completely depressed. Nothing will top that for a long time. Maybe the Texans loss stings if you live in Texas (do you?) but that loss to the Skins, was the worst I think I'll ever see.

Agree.
That was so bad on so many levels it's hard to put into words.

You bought into the pregame hype a bit too much. We could afford to lose this game more than Philly because it was a home division game for them and they had lost 7 division games in a row. We SHOULD HAVE won this game, but being 2-2 after playing three of the first four on the road is about what you would expect. There are improvements to be made for sure, but this season is far from over.

Texans game was the worst loss I can remember. You can personally thank QC for that one.

Eagles (pickle juice) comes close second because I was there, sweating to death in the heat.
