it has been this way for many years now,
DFW caught up with LAX. Corporate crowd 20 to 20 yard line. There is a market for game seats that season ticket owners by the dozens take the advantage. The only philly type Dallas fans at AT&T paid $35 party pass, fighting for rail standing space and dropping $300 a person drinking to be philly stupid.

it is what it is

Sounds like a lot of sour grapes to explain away 30 years of futility and the way that’s diminished the energy of a fan base. That whole “America’s team” thing died with Landry Staubach and Dorsett. Jerry Jones isn’t likable. That heavily skewing Boomer fan base is dying literally and figuratively

i don't know about all that. First year in retirement, feeling pretty good. Thanks for asking.

Yeah, Verse was a monster. I actually thought their D was the best in the league the last 6 weeks and thought they should've beaten the Eagles in the divisional game.

Those monster TD runs of course killed them. I was amazed they still had the game within grasp on that late drive.

Every time they show an interview completed picture you know the guy isn't getting hired...

OK, even I am getting mildly annoyed at all these stories about what a great guy Saquon is. They make him sound like he walks on water.

To a man, they call him out as the difference this year. I can see that watched the Super Bowl mic’ed up. He seems like he’s a next level leader whose voice commands respect.

Anything that makes the Giants look stupid for letting you guys get him is good in my book

Eagles might not have made the SB without Barkley going off on the Rams.

That's a better timeline for Chiefs fans
Man, I can go deeper than that. Eagles have a week 5 bye and they’re 2-2. One game was a blowout with many guys out hurt. The other was a blown lead when they had the game won vs Atlanta. Hurts was turning the ball over and trying to do too much.

Over the bye, Mailota and Lane Johnson approach Sirianni and say listen the strength of this team is our OL and the once in a lifetime back we signed. They changed their whole philosophy on offense at that bye. The biggest credit goes to Kellen Moore. Dude was trying to get his chance to be a head coach and he had to abandon his stuff that Hurts was struggling to master to instead go run heavy with play action off of it. The rest is history. No Saquon and no Super Bowl for the Eagles this year.
