This time 2 weeks ago we were basking in the glory of our 1st playoff win since SB46.
2 weeks later and we’re licking our wounds after another beat down at the hands of the Eagles while they’re in their way to another Super Bowl.
I know we’re on the right track and overall this was a really positive season but once again the Eagles are fucking everything up.
When does it end with these guys? When do we get to torment them for 20 years straight?
We likely keep our staff and get a ton of picks.
More cap space.
Eagles could lose in the Super Bowl and come undone from the fall from Grace.

Fall from grace? Lose in the SB AND have the 10th pick in the draft. Yeah, what a terrible situation, that can really destroy a team that has few old players.
I'm in the same place I was two weeks ago. The Giants have a good coach, finally, and are moving in the right direction for the first time in over a decade.
Exactly this. Don’t get me wrong, they’ll still be very good, but they have an aging roster at certain spots, and a lot of difficult decisions to make with pending free agents considering they will be up against the cap. Especially when they pay Hurts handsomely.
Can’t compare the Giants and the Eagles though. Not yet. They are in two very different places. The Giants took a step forward this season, and whatever the Eagles did/do doesn’t impact that.
Is it possible they start to fall off a cliff? Sure. But them heading to the Superbowl and carrying two first round picks including one in the top 10 doesn't give me the warm and fuzzies about their impending doom. It's unfortunately the eagle way. Finally get rid of whatever asshole has been tormenting us for 5-10 years and some new one pops up.
I am confident it will come good in a season or two.
The only thing that will get in Philly’s way of restocking is if Lurie loses his mind and gives personnel control to Sirianni.
Im not saying they are going to drop off a cliff but they will come back to the pack. And you know when/if they win the Superbowl those guys are going to want to get paid.
They also have a bad cap situation in 2024 with Jalen Hurts set to be a FA.
Jalen will most likely get a monster contract extension after this season, so hopefully it strap them a bit for next season.
