  • Saw someone mention this on twitter. Seems as if the closest comparison to what happened to the Eagles this year happened to the Eagles in 1981.

    Coming of a Super Bowl loss...started 9-2, finished 10-6. Eerily similar and I feel like I have heard next to nothing about that team over my lifetime.

    As opposed to the Patriots, who indeed lost to your beloved Eagles a million or so years ago, who returned the very next year to not only get in the Super Bowl but to win it. Imagine that? Particularly after beginning the previous decade by winning three within four years. Imagine that glory? As a fan?

    Tell us you’d like to feel that feeling of being a fan of a team as great as the patriots were for the preceding two decades and what it would have felt like to return to the Super Bowl after vanquishing the mighty patriots and win another ring? Oh, remember that feeling you had a million years ago? Savor it, as it may be another million or so years before you feel it again.

    Yea, I’m obsessed because it’s like the PTAPE, real but not really.

    Yes 3rd year they've done it now.
    2022 Rams beat Cards on Monday (and went on to win Superb Owl dashing the cries of playing on Monday being unfair), 2023 Cowboys beat Tampa Bay.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Totally forgot about the Rams. Second year in a row for Tampa is weird.

    The Sydney Brown injury is really frustrating. The kid was one of the bright-ish spots and someone they wanted to count on to start at safety next year...probably out till Sept or Oct of next year plus missing offseason workouts. Rough timing.

    How are we feeling, gents?

    I'm sure the fact that it's Monday night plays a factor but this is the least hyped playoff game I can remember since the one against San Fran in '96. Just a weird week.

    Kind of that thing where they will probably figure it out and give us all hope and then go and get destroyed in the divisional.

    So Baker Mayfield and Jared Goff is all that prevents us from getting back to the championship game again.

    Of course we'll probably find a way to fuck it up again today.
