Eagles play their next three games at home against winnable opponents. It's done and they deserve it. They went out and got Jernigan and Darby to add to an already stacked defense. Got Jeffrey on a prove it deal to help out their young QB. Their oline looks like top 3 in the league. Meanwhile we go 13-3 and get fat and happy. Benson Mayowa and Kyle Wilber are getting significant PT on this team. I'm totally disgusted in the front office. How do you not go for the jugular after getting so close last season?

I’d love to call you an alarmist, but unfortunately you are right. Getting back into the division race, already 2.5 games behind, without Zeke and with the toughest part of the schedule still to come.. it’s just not going to happen, folks.

That said, this team still has time to get it together, make the playoffs as a wildcard and be a dangerous team.

I’d love to see us get the 6th seed and draw the Pack in the wildcard round. Sweet revenge.

The Eagles are a good, well coached team that are putting it all together at a rapid pace. It's discouraging to see teams like the Rams and Eagles (among others) get it together so quickly while we bounce up and down year to year with no true direction.

We need a new coaching staff.

This thread reminds me that many of our fellow fans are easy to not like.

Fans do have a legit reason to be frustrated.

How many years do we have to watch our team have an absolutely horrific defense? I’m growing rather tired of it, quite frankly.

If they wouldn’t have found a miracle gem like Dak in the 4th round. This team would have sucked last year and would be even worse this year on top of all that.

We would be trotting Romo out in a wheelchair, forcing him to be superman.

But hey, in 5 years the defense will be fixed, just in time for the offensive line to be bad, and then we can repeat the 08-12 seasons again

This FO and coaching staff (esp the HC and D.C.) are morons

Waiting for CZ homers to come in and tell us how losing games and not adding good players in FA is actually s good thing

Well Murray went on to have a pretty damn good year last year and they could have used him.

Bradford did as well.

They got an improved pick that helped them land Wentz, tons of cap relief, and then dumped Bradford and got a first round pick in the process. Those moves were genius. Roseman has gotten them out of the Chip Kelly debacle in record time.

I think we have a shot to be a wildcard team.

Hopefully with zeke out the coaches start trying some new things.

All these people praising the eagles... How many of you had them at 5-1? None?

OK. Shut up.

Oh waaahhhh!!!

This isn't a prediction thread, it's a reality thread. And giving credit where credit is due.

But you go cry and whine because they're good and the Cowboys aren't.

And then you "shut up".

LOL are you people this dramatic in real life or only on the Internet?


It's October. The season is far from over and the division is far from secured, by any team.
It's in the 4th quarter and 3rd and long. Have Philly win next week and us lose to SF and get back to me.

"Dramatic"? More like realistic. This Cowboys team isn't competing with this Eagles team. Not the way both are playing. Maybe you need to accept that?


It's October. The season is far from over and the division is far from secured, by any team.

Feel free to make your case for that belief. Just base it on more than fan hopes and some tried rallying cry.
