Um, congrats? Oh well, go start your offseason.No sour grapes here.
It's always been #### the eagles for me. This year is no different

We’re really close. Don’t be so pessimistic.I'm probably about the most pessimistic Cowboys fan on this board.
I don't know when the last time I posted anything good about them actually. They have alot of work to do to get better

I'm in a fine moodWe’re really close. Don’t be so pessimistic.
A coaching change would help immenesly. We’ve got the talent on offense with upgrades at receiver. Rico will be a big help. We have a ton of potential on D.
Can’t stress enough how a dynamic HC will help. It would make a huge difference with the talent we have to work with.
I have a feeling you’re going to be in a much better mood this time next year.![]()
You’re right. Super Bowls aren’t easy to win, but we’re starting out with more raw talent than the vast majority of the league.I'm in a fine mood![]()
I don't have very high expectations when the seasons start anymore. Super Bowls aren't easy to win
I can't say for sure of the last 20 but according to This and taking it account this seasons record the Eagles and the Cowboys records are:So you can vicariously re-live your last 20 years as a Cowboys fan?
Lol, um you too, GB.Um, congrats? Oh well, go start your offseason.
I wish I would have talked moreI can't say for sure of the last 20 but according to This and taking it account this seasons record the Eagles and the Cowboys records are:
DAL 101- 75
PHI 97-78-1
Way to go!
I also cant wait for next season. Some of you have been beyond obnoxious this year. You couldnt make heads or tails of how well Dak played last year when everything went his way and your boy struggled down the stretch. This season everything went Wentzs way and he played great. Dak struggles and now all of a sudden you're QB savants.
I like Dak and I like his character. I think he'll be just fine.
You guys focus less on Dak and more your Eagles and how they handle the success of this season next year. You won't have the easy schedule and your QB is coming off of major knee surgery.
Somthing tells me you're gonna regret talking so much smack this year if you haven't already.
Good luck 2017 Super Bowl Champions!
I bet. You guys are like the awful obnoxious Cowboys fans I hate only you guys wear the worst shade of green possible and haven't won since Eisenhower was President.I wish I would have talked more
Lol, um you too, GB.Um, congrats? Oh well, go start your offseason.
Except that's not at all within the context of my post. What are their post-season records over that time? That was the context.I can't say for sure of the last 20 but according to This and taking it account this seasons record the Eagles and the Cowboys records are:

As an Eagles fan, I'd think it's not in your best interest to go back in the past decades and compare postseason with many teams.Except that's not at all within the context of my post. What are their post-season records over that time? That was the context.
Oh, ok. Tell us again how the Cowboys were a good team a generation ago.As an Eagles fan, I'd think it's not in your best interest to go back in the past decades and compare postseason with many teams.Except that's not at all within the context of my post.

Seems odd
You brought it upOh, ok. Tell us again how the Cowboys were a good team a generation ago.
Oh and "tell us again?"Oh, ok. Tell us again how the Cowboys were a good team a generation ago.
Hey I wouldn't have brought up anything until you started with your sour grapes. Anyway, enjoy your offseason!You brought it upOh, ok. Tell us again how the Cowboys were a good team a generation ago.![]()
You're the one that wanted to go back 20 years. Curious how you didn't want to go back 5 more![]()
Good stuff
Again, there's no sour grapes. I root against Philly every week. Just like I'm sure you root against Dallas. It is what it is.Hey I wouldn't have brought up anything until you started with your sour grapes. Anyway, enjoy your offseason!
Foles looked very capable against NYG, so he isn't a complete dudHoly crap. I think I read a couple dozen times how we were playing more starters than you guys. LOL.
If I was a Philly fan, I’d be much more concerned with getting shut out. It doesn’t look like you guys are going anywhere with Foles, but the NFL is a war of attrition. All I can say (similar to my Cowboys at several positions) is get a better backup.
It would take some balls, but Sudfeld might be your best shot at winning a game in the playoffs. Do you wait until you’re down to make the switch?
Butt hurt? Nah, just some good natured back-and-forth with a fan how still clings to their teams' rings from when they were in high school.Again, there's no sour grapes.

I'm looking forward to Philly getting bounced from the playoffs. Not sure why that makes your butt hurt

Hey seriously - safe and Happy New Year to you! I'm sure the 'Boys will be back next year with a better season.

You have to take into account the competition (Giants), though. Is Foles good enough to beat teams like the Vikes, Rams, & Saints? You guys would have all you wanted & more against those teams even with Wentz.Foles looked very capable against NYG, so he isn't a complete dud
It’s already started, you’re just running 2 weeks behind.However mine won't start for at least another 2 weeks GB.
I agree that a coaching change would help the Cowboys. However, I don't think Jones is getting rid of his puppet, Garrett. Also, they need to get rid of the cancer that is Dez Bryant. He is killing that offense by whining about how much he gets used. Prescott will be much better off when he can spread the ball around to the open receiver without having to worry about Dez crying to him on the sideline. The Cowboys do have some pieces to build on on their defense. They just have to hope Lee stays healthy and keeps playing until the other players have developed. The defense is very dependent on Lee right now.We’re really close. Don’t be so pessimistic.

Most of us don’t do that. Seems to me it’s only the fans of the Eagles Giants and Redskins who bring up how long ago it was that the Cowboys did anything. In fact it’s pretty much only Eagles, Redskins and Giants fans who bring up the Cowboys at all, it’s all you guys ever talk about.Oh, ok. Tell us again how the Cowboys were a good team a generation ago.

I think it's probably because the cowboys still get so much pressure and national airtime, so they feel like they are in everyone's consciousness all the time, whether that has anything to do with the fans or not.Most of us don’t do that.

yeah i think i would rather see Sudfeld too, but was just saying going into the year i think the Eagles accounted for a good back-up in the position. i think Foles is better then he looked today, and they did have some parts out of the offense all game, but he has to be better tooYou have to take into account the competition (Giants), though. Is Foles good enough to beat teams like the Vikes, Rams, & Saints? You guys would have all you wanted & more against those teams even with Wentz.
Sudfeld might not be any better than Foles, but he could provide a spark. Sudfeld certainly looked better in this game.
so which back-ups that were available are better? McNown doesn't count because he wanted a chance to start? it isn't like a grocery store and the Eagles can get back-ups at will. and to say the Foles today is the one you are thinking of, i would love to know why. i think it is a little more anti-Eagles then anything. the answer is that he is likely somewhere between the Giants game and the last 2 weeks. he didn't attempt a pass over 10 yards today, i can almost guarnatee if he is starting in 2 weeks he will have a couple deep ballsI think Foles showed today what he is a below average backup
Oh?I think Foles showed today what he is a below average backup

This would've been even better if they were to pull off a miracle in two weeks, but still an amazing bump.
See, sometimes a good head coach puts his players in positions to win. The run/pass options the Eagles have been running the last two weeks are very similar to what Foles ran with Chip Kelly when Foles had his great season in 2013. in the last 3 halfs of football, Nick has looked pretty comfortable out there.Holy crap. I think I read a couple dozen times how we were playing more starters than you guys. LOL.
