Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!


I'm not a real fan because I left my house to go shopping when they went down by 11.

A good deal of Eagle fans were piling out of Raymond James at that time as well.

From what I understand, Eagles fans were there til the very end.

The Eagles were officially eliminated by Dallas winning today at Cincy.

Well, true, but I was referring to before the game.

Dallas and Washington close out against each other is what I was going for.

Let's look at it this way, yeah they won and that's good because you never want your team to lose. But is there really anything to celebrate? A piss poor offensive line, winning a game for the first time in over 2 months and the coaches admitting that they had 2 different game plans for Vick & Foles. How bad is it when one of the assistant coaches admits (something that all of us knew) that he screwed up with Michael Vick?

Or Reid admitting he "goofed" by hiring Juan in the first place.  Now firing Washburn proves he was a mistake, too.

I have never seen a fan base so deceived by a coach before.  They keep thinking he'll turn it around or they place blame everywhere but him.

I respect Reid but I can't wait for a change.

You can whine n moan about being a "real" fan all you want but face the facts!  If the Eagles lost every game last season we would have Andrew Luck and be competing for a Super Bowl this year and for the next 10 years!!

If were not going to the playoffs, whats the difference if we are 4-12 or 7-9?

If we lost our last 4 games last season instead of winning them we would have finished 4-12 instead of 8-8 and been in position to draft RG3. He would have looked great in a eagles uni.

Thats the only reason ppl want us to lose meaningless games is so we can draft a better player. Yes I was excited and happy as hell when we won, but if we lost I wouldnt have pouted all night long like I used to do when we were fighting for playoffs

I stayed til the end and there was much green to be seen on the scene if you know what I mean.

You're not a fan if you don't want what's best for the team.  However, opinions may vary on what's best for the team.  It is funny seeing how the OP and posters of his ilk get so offended that others have their own thoughts.

There were groups leaving on both sides of my section. I didn't count but I saw around 40 people heading toward the exit all wearing Eagles garb right after they went down by 11. That's what I saw. Being it was Tampa and the section wasn't that large I figured it was significant.

The guys who want us to lose so we get a higher draft pick or whatever..

You people just need to leave. Jesus Christ. We won a damn game. Who cares what our record is, I went crazy when we won!! How can you not be excited when you saw the way Foles played today and some of our young guys. Some of you "so called fans" are pathetic. Would we rather we sucked and then had to replace every single position?!

Foles was ridiculously good today for a rookie, the composure he showed was remarkable.

If you actually wanted us to lose on that last play with 2 seconds left, get out. You aren't a real fan.

GO BIRDS!!!

I'm with ya bud.  I haven't felt that good about a win in a few years...maybe the Giants miracle.  This win feels nice though, and I say screw it man playing for pride works just fine for me.  I'd love to win out.

OK fine, so should teams that mathematically get eliminated from the playoffs just be allowed to forfeit the rest of the season?  Or obviously throw away games?  Come on what about the game itself, the integrity and all that.  I'm of the ilk F it all and play to win to the end.  

I'm 24 years in on this whole Eagles fan experiment (I'm 34, father a Giants fan brother in law a Skins fan) and I've had faith the whole time I'll see a SB someday.  If I end up dying first so be it, but I just want to see them fight every damn game.  If I can see that I'd go out happy.  Seeing them quit this year was the worst.
