E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!! Birds - Giants '24 G1 game thread

[LionJim]

LOL, that wasn't always an advantage. Folks forget that before the Cowboys came along, the Giants were the most hated rival. And there have been a lot of years where the G-Men were very good and/or better than the Birds.

Each of the Eagles’ NFC East compatriots has multiple Lombardi Trophies. Off the top of my head, this makes the NFC East unique in that regard, each team has a Lombardi.

There have been a lot of years when most teams were better than the Birds.

I would say that both Washington and NYG have had more years of deep suckitude than have the Eagles. Washington for sure.

I remember when Georgetown, Penn State, and the Redskins were at their best at the same time. Life was good.

All-time records:
Commanders: 633-645-29
Giants: 723-653-34
Eagles: 627-638-27

I think the above stats were at the beginning of this season.

I'd concur with you if the window was recent years. If you look at more recent stats (since 2000, including that season), and limit it to just regular season games:

Commanders: 162-229-2
Giants: 185-208-1
Eagles: 231-159-2

Thanks Tom. It’s nice to be hopeful for Washington again. Does a body good.

Barkley had the runs all afternoon.

 

[BobPSU92]

Seems a bit contrived.

I’m an a$$hole. OBVIOUSLY. , the game meant a lot to Saquon. You could see it after every time he got the ball.

If you can’t get into Georgetown, you probably shouldnt be a g town fanboy

My dad was Georgetown 1952. My mother was at Georgetown Visitation Junior College when she met my father and got engaged two weeks later. You have to remember that although I grew up in Bucks County I’m DMV at heart, lifelong. I’ve been a Georgetown fan since before Ewing, 1980 is my favorite Georgetown team. (Lost in the Elite Eight.)

 

[LionJim]

I f ing love your QB

Yeah, wow, he does seem to be a good one. Unreal accuracy.

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

so SMOOTH

The Browns are a mess. You could argue that this injury may benefit them.

in the iggles thread?

 

[WestSideLion]

The Eagles have world-class talent at WR and RB. Brown is a weapon.

Absolutely. This the fans’ impatience with how they’re playing on offense. Today is hopefully a sign of better play to come.

I think the Iggles had five winning seasons between ‘62 and ‘87.
I’ve always told my son how fortunate he has been to be a fan of the modern day team.

Am I right here? Is the NFC East the sole division where each team has a Super Bowl win?

Yes, that is correct

 

[troutrus]

The NFC East is the only division where every team (Cowboys, Giants, Commanders and Eagles) has a Super Bowl win.

Which NFL division has the most Super Bowl titles?

After the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII, here’s a look at which NFL division has won the most titles in league history.

The Redskins won the 1982 Super Bowl using one offensive play, which was John Riggins off tackle.
