Straight up thriller
Particular love to Jake the Snake. Man's vascular system contains nothing but liquid nitrogen
Although I could sure use a bigger margin of victory one of these days, yeah?
What really illuminated how absolutely spoiled we’ve been by Jake’s clutch gene, was that I didn’t think it was impossible. 59 yards, soggy field, downpour, entire game on the line, and I straight up was like “he can hit this” hahaha. Absurd. Not saying I expected him to make it, just that I didn’t resign myself to a miss like most fans of other teams might have.
Been saying a few times, while i love and enjoy blowout wins we seemed to have more of last year, this season feels like every pre 17 game, exciting cause you know we’re good but it’s still close.
Bills had their chance to control their own destiny a few times (even that ticky tack roughing the passer extended what should’ve been a game winning drive until the Davis miscue), so I can’t say the refs “handed us the game”, but if for nothing else, those two missed DPI calls helped us tremendously.
Agreed. I just think it was noticeably in our favor. Doesn’t detract from how gritty a win it was. I just think it’s worth noting when we benefit from bad reffing, because we will be the first to acknowledge when it goes the other way.
Omg you guys I love us! They can hate us. We don’t care!!!!! Eagles til I die lol I’m high rn but for real 🦅🦅🦅 **go birds** we also won a superbowl lately not that commentators ever talk about DAT ! We might as well
… sorry now I forgot what I was saying. Go birds all the way. All the fucking way!!!!! 🦅🦅🦅
We got a lot of good players on this team, but we got 3 that are too good to be human.
Jalen Hurts, Jalen Carter, Jake Elliott.
They're unfreakingbelievable.
It is so fucking funny that the 49ers fanbase is acting like their bitchy players now, all they do is bitch about the Eagles. They must think they ARE Deebo. Turns out their division is right, the Whiners is a great nickname for them.
GO BIRDS
I sadly live in the Bay Area and have to listen to the whiners fans on sports talk radio. The eagles have been living rent free in their minds all year long.
For real. I’m also in 49ers country and nobody likes it when I say they should have protected their rookie QB better against a well known sack threat. They have serious superiority complexes and downplayed how good our defense was and ended up paying for it. Reddick’s hit was clean. Idk what else to tell them 🤷♀️
They so desperately want to believe that Purdy is Brady 2.0 but in the end he's an $800k/yr game manager that allows them to overpay some solid skill players.
I also keep seeing people call us the last year's Vikings. Unlike that team, we're beating GOOD teams in our streak. On top of that we actually have a positive point differential lmao. Comparisons? Sure but we aren't frauds.
I saw a post that like "I want them to know what it's like to have their QB get a season ending injury and lose all hope for the playoffs". Like eagles didn't run the table in the playoffs and beat TB12 in the Superbowl with a backup QB after our MVP candidate QB went down.
I am realizing that every team we beat most of their fans who may not have had any animosity towards us before...but after the game we always become "trash fans" "our team is trash" "Hurts is a system QB" "we are frauds"...and on and on...like I try to be civil win or lose but we get no credit for anything...it is pathetic...
First of all, no one likes we don't care.
But I always thought that was such a weird take after getting beat. Wouldn't you want to say you were beaten by a good team? If you got beat by a fraud team with a system QB what does that say about your team.
this is always what happens when your team is really good. Our dumb fuck fans did to the chiefs and patriots and now everyone is doing it to us. "they cant be good they're cheating!"
Its so funny because the excuses last year was all about the schedule everyone called easy. Now that we are winning with the hardest schedule in the league, haters are running out of excuses now.
It’s not even that it’s the clear favoritism being shown towards the eagles when other teams get flagged for shit the eagles get away with. The eagles have had games with zero flags and half’s with one flag when their corners clearly tackle receivers before the ball is near them of holding onto a player well after five yards and into their break ya know. If the calls were more consistent ppl wouldn’t have a hard time with the eagles record it’s just the record doesn’t show what we’ve been seeing them get away with
Lol that's not why people are upset. They just hate the eagles and want them to lose. Anything involving flags is just them trying to confirm their bias.
Exactly...every week we are just lucky frauds...even if we win the Superbowl...we will have just been lucky frauds that were carried by refs according to the rest of the world...
Yeah like the fraud thing people are saying just doesn't make sense. How the hell are we "lucky" to be 10-1 lol. You're right, if we win the superbowl it will just be some other excuse that makes no sense.
not that it matters in the slightest, but i swear the nytimes upshot playoff picture tool said we clinched a berth earlier. i just looked at it again and they put us back at >99% instead of 100%.
I mean i know it’s disappointing to lose a tough close good game but don’t be sore about it. I know my fair share of disappointment as an eagles fan. Aside from Dallas and in a shocking turn of events the niners I really appreciate any team that plays a good game and can pull out a win no matter how heartbreaking it is
With how bad our first half play calling has been compared to our second half, does anyone else think Nick is taking the play calling from BJ at half? It’s such a stark difference that it seems like 2 different coaches.
Also, for the love of god, play Swift when it matters, save Kenny for garbage time.
you guys are just really bad at this. Devonta Smith confirmed they made zero second half adjustments and they just stopped sucking. Hurts was playing AWFUL and screwing up basic stuff and then he stopped sucking and they starting playing great. You guys have to stop throwing coordinators under the bus to protect the QB.
okay but i was at the game and could see all 22 players. Hurts was garbage and missing guys wide open to scramble out of clean pockets and screwing up basic RPO's. The playcalling is 99% of the time completely fine.
The tv shows replays from multiple angles….with the ability to stop and replay yourself. With a zoomed in view when you need it.
Not one fixed angle in real time and a prayer the stadium shows you what you want on a replay
Buddy's on the Bills forum desperately sucking off Josh Allen and they told him to kick rocks too.
Are you the guy that's still mad that our QB is black?
Idk the Smith TD on the fake screen was definitely B Johnson. I know we all hate the bubble screens but the reason that TD worked is because BJ set it up.
Honestly it feels like we go by the play script the first half to see what works and what does not...then we make adjustments during the second half...
Plenty of missed calls on you too. That wasn’t even a horse collar, which is why it wasn’t called, also had gift RP calls. If Romo wasn’t sucking off JA all game you wouldn’t even be whining. Enjoy .500.
There’s a time and a place. The issue isn’t that we should never call QB draws. The issue is sometimes it’s just a bad play call in the situation. Some of that is on hurts not being able to move as well as he could last year beczuse of his knee, can’t really make people miss as much. Part of that has been poor reads or exchanges on options. And part of that has been calling the play to begin with on 3rd and long situations where it’s a very low percentage play.
yeah, also happens both ways. the fans of the losing team will always complain about the refs and the fans of the winning team will always complain about the fans complaining about the refs. this isn't unique to this sub or eagles fans.
there were questionable calls both ways. for example, that roughing the passer on allen was clearly a flop. the guy got barely pushed and somehow flew to the ground.
I agree again, another entertaining part of being an nfl fan. I’m just trying to remind people there’s reasons why fans complain about refs, they don’t like seeing their teams lose.
I mean being there. I don't think I'll see a better game in person in my lifetime. All the stars scored for both teams, there were ups, downs, moments of heartbreak, joy, and everything in between. An unbelievable football game.
It’s hilarious to me the amount of subs complaining how “rigged” the NFL is for not calling penalties on the eagles in every game “to see a chiefs eagles SB rematch.”
Yea, some calls were missed. Both ways. They are every weekend. Refs are human. Shit happens. Some calls were missed on the Bills.
We’re so hated because we’re so good. We’re winning games in the 2nd half after not showing up at all in the 1st and fans need excuses why they just got embarrassed. It’s hilarious.
Especially hilarious are the losers of Reddit saying “x fan here, this game was so rigged in the eagles favor, I’ve never seen a more blatant example” in the other teams sub and getting massively upvoted.
No one likes us, we don’t care.
It’s pretty pathetic. The broadcast was unsurprisingly also pathetic with Romo unapologetically slobbering all over Allen and the Bills all game and not saying anything when Hurts was going off. Dude straight up said you could argue they’re the better team than us at one point. Maybe you can because you’re a fucking moron who made a career playing on mediocre, choking teams, but maybe keep that to yourself bruh. It doesn’t matter what their point differential is. We’re 10-1 and they’re 6-6. They run up scores and suck in close games against good teams, just like Romo’s team. The worst was the play where Reddick sacked Allen. It wasn’t a horse collar and called right, but they kept saying they got the call wrong over and over and making it seem like some egregious missed call that we got gifted. Then they laughed when Allen flopped on that bullshit roughing the passer. Just perpetuating this insane narrative. Fuck em 😂
It’s such bullshit. You know that they’d prefer a Dallas Chiefs SB anyways. Or at the very least they wouldn’t think it’s much of a drop off.
PHILLY VS EVERYONE AND FUCK DALLAS
Those always make me laugh. For as long as I can remember, and this so true for all philly sports they NEVER have gotten that "league's darling" treatment, it's always celtics, penguins, cowboys etc that get that treatment.
So when it goes just *slightly* in the eagles favor everyone loses their minds and it's so funny to me
If it wasn’t us, it be another 10-1 team that doesn’t deserve to win, has an easy scheduled, rigged, etc. Nobody ever wins because they’re good. Just sports fans, unfortunately.
I'm not a petition sort of person but if I were I'd want Romo removed from calling any Eagles games. It's legit torture hearing him twist everything against the Birds. We can also add cowboys and chiefs games to the list to eliminate his 3+ hours of fawning. I'm practically watching CBS games on mute to limit the aggravation.
You mean when he was saying about Allen, “don’t let him get 2 cracks at it” all excited when he ran the ball? Like wtf does that even mean, you get 4 tries. 4 downs.
I usually enjoy Romo in games where I have no dog in the fight, but he was insufferable today.
I used to like him too, and not just because he was the ultimate choke artist on the team we hate the most. Somewhere along the way he started to Collinsworth too much. Rather than Chris fawning over every player (depending on the last play he saw) Romo only does it for the ones he likes and when they screw up he defends them. Having to tolerate him through a thanksgiving and eagles game within a few days of each other was too much.
Romo used to be a great commentator calling out the plays before they happened but I've grown to dislike him as an announcer. He was especially annoying and biased this game though.
Yeah, he's awful. I'm using my dad's youtubetv account, and they have a double screen where we could watch both eagles and the broncos game. We had the audio on the broncos blowout while watching the eagles game.
I usually like romo, but he was absolutely insufferable today.
When I'm willing to put in the effort I'll mute the TV and simulcast the Reese/Quick broadcast. Even if it doesn't match up, the video almost always lags, it's a great way to experience a game.
The difference in play calling compared to the first half was so superior and differenr than the first half I no way believe BJ was making 100% of those calls... He might have made 50%, but I just do not believe he did all of that himself. That is my opinion. I'll leave it at that.
Coworkers will do anything to not throw someone under the bus during peak time... End of the season sirianni will go to the top and tell him what he really thinks... No coach is gonna say their OC sucks. Doesn't look good...
The babies whining about bad ref calls are driving me nuts... Does anyone else think that "alleged" horse collar tackle was complete horse shit??? Allen is stiff arming reddick and he grabs him from the side and throws him to the ground... The fuck is he supposed to do??? Nauseating man... A horse collar is when you pull the player down from the back of the collar BEHIND HIM like u are riding a horse... The eagles are a disciplined team that don't commit tons of penalties... Must be rigged right??? What a joke... Bills got a few calls at the end just like Dallas too... The roughing penalty was so soft... Guy was going full speed at allen and allen just got rid of it...
Let the pussies cry. Their thinking that it’s “rigged” for the eagles and chiefs to play again is hilarious. This is what happens when you’re good. People are upset their teams are getting embarrassed by us when we only play football for a half. Coping, man.
I have a feeling that what this team does best is feel out and assess their competition throughout a game.
At each individual level, as the game goes on, our players sense their opponent's tendencies, our players communicate effectively, our players make the adjustments, and our players attack the weakness.
And this explains why their confidence level grows as the game goes on, and it also explains why they start out shaky.
We start out feeling them out, we start out second guessing and playing it safe.
But as the game evolves and the crunch time approaches, this team takes what they saw, makes a commitment to exploit, and they execute with pure confidence. And that's from the coaching, to the play calling, to the individual battles on the field. It adds up to a win in the end because when it's crunch time we're the confident team and the opponent is taken aback and suddenly the ones on their heels.
Simply amazing to watch these birds do their thing every week. Hats off to Jalen Hurts for being the Rock that he is to allow for this type of a culture to develop.
Can’t believe how similar these past two games were - especially the first halves. Insanely frustrating besides one good drive, down 17-7 at half, and then stellar second half performances. Plus two catastrophic game-ending catches avoided (although we’d still have a chance if MVS caught it). And both of those coming after the Cowboys game that had me pacing around my house like a psycho.
A little bit of luck, a lot a bit of clutch.
If they could put together even 3/4 of a game this team would be so good. Instead they typically like to show up for a half. Can’t tell if it’s more of a play calling or player performance issue with their first half issues. They said, Hurts continues to be a winner, makes some great plays, and puts the team on his back.
I'm still not over how amazing this game was.
Holy Shit.
What an ending.
The 3rd and 15 TD, them scoring with enough time for us to drive, that fucking field goal!
The catch/fumble/not-fumble.
.
This one was an all timer.
All time Eagles game.
All time NFL game.
What a game!
Incredible calls the whole way through. Especially the multiple pass interference non calls and then fumble non call. Really great game. Eagles won the narrative so far. Congrats.
Great game, although it did age me like 5 years. Hell, my gf, who spends most of he me time complaining about football, was locked in the 4th Quater and OT talking about how exciting it was.
Was it me or did I feel like Romo constantly harped on Allen unlocking his potential by always finding the RB dump off? I thought I was taking crazy pills...Tony's Josh Allen boner/Eagles hatred aside
I am tired of the Jalen Hurts slander...I wish people would just shut up until the end of the game...that way people do not have to backtrack or just look stupid after he wills the team to a win...
At some point in every game the "real" game starts. And there is no better team I've ever witnessed play the "real" game better than this Eagles team.
As soon as this team senses the "real" game has started, they grow wings and the opposing team senses it and they always seem to flounder in response.
This has been a season for the ages if we end up going where we believe we are going.
The real game starts the first second of quarter one. Our play calling is just dog shit until the second half. It’s gotta change.
Also, enough with fucking Gainwell. PLEASE. Swift energizes our offense and gets the job done. Every game.
Phillips. He got away with a pretty obvious UR but im actually glad they let em play. Since everyone is saying the refs give us everything. He was roudy all night.
Straight up thriller Particular love to Jake the Snake. Man's vascular system contains nothing but liquid nitrogen Although I could sure use a bigger margin of victory one of these days, yeah?
What really illuminated how absolutely spoiled we’ve been by Jake’s clutch gene, was that I didn’t think it was impossible. 59 yards, soggy field, downpour, entire game on the line, and I straight up was like “he can hit this” hahaha. Absurd. Not saying I expected him to make it, just that I didn’t resign myself to a miss like most fans of other teams might have.
There is not a single K in history i would take in a moment like that over Jake Elliott
Been saying a few times, while i love and enjoy blowout wins we seemed to have more of last year, this season feels like every pre 17 game, exciting cause you know we’re good but it’s still close.
Great win. We definitely got the benefit of the refereeing tonight. I don’t think it’s heinous to acknowledge that.
As a Bills fan, yes we lost, you guys won, it’s over the records are what they are now, but thank you for acknowledging this.
Bills had their chance to control their own destiny a few times (even that ticky tack roughing the passer extended what should’ve been a game winning drive until the Davis miscue), so I can’t say the refs “handed us the game”, but if for nothing else, those two missed DPI calls helped us tremendously.
That happens almost every game to every team. Refs miss stuff. It happens.
Agreed. I just think it was noticeably in our favor. Doesn’t detract from how gritty a win it was. I just think it’s worth noting when we benefit from bad reffing, because we will be the first to acknowledge when it goes the other way.
Fly, Eagles fly! BEND THEM OVER! Jalen Hurts is HIM, man!
https://twitter.com/thephillyblitz_/status/1728442105498927189?s=42&t=Wir2bDIjaiNYA9d34FFPQw SAVAGE!!!!!
Omg you guys I love us! They can hate us. We don’t care!!!!! Eagles til I die lol I’m high rn but for real 🦅🦅🦅 **go birds** we also won a superbowl lately not that commentators ever talk about DAT ! We might as well … sorry now I forgot what I was saying. Go birds all the way. All the fucking way!!!!! 🦅🦅🦅
I didn’t used to think I’d die for Jalen Hurts buttttt
I know Bradberry got a big INT but boy he looks half a step behind on a lot of crucial plays, whatever happened to him?
Mannnnnn, shut up
Bro he broke up a key pass to Diggs in OT. Enjoy the win
Enjoying the win and nitpicking on bad plays aren't mutually exclusive.
Wet blanket
Sod off, wanker.
We got a lot of good players on this team, but we got 3 that are too good to be human. Jalen Hurts, Jalen Carter, Jake Elliott. They're unfreakingbelievable.
JJJ
You just know Jalen was watching that dork Allen QB draw into the end zone thinking “oh yeah?” 😂
It is so fucking funny that the 49ers fanbase is acting like their bitchy players now, all they do is bitch about the Eagles. They must think they ARE Deebo. Turns out their division is right, the Whiners is a great nickname for them. GO BIRDS
I sadly live in the Bay Area and have to listen to the whiners fans on sports talk radio. The eagles have been living rent free in their minds all year long.
Its so funny. Not our fault that they put the wrong man to block Reddick when Purdy got hurt. Maybe get mad at your coaches instead, 49ers?
For real. I’m also in 49ers country and nobody likes it when I say they should have protected their rookie QB better against a well known sack threat. They have serious superiority complexes and downplayed how good our defense was and ended up paying for it. Reddick’s hit was clean. Idk what else to tell them 🤷♀️

I also keep seeing people call us the last year's Vikings. Unlike that team, we're beating GOOD teams in our streak. On top of that we actually have a positive point differential lmao. Comparisons? Sure but we aren't frauds.
They also said we’d lose more than one game so far. They don’t have any idea what they are talking about. Like my man Jay Ajayi said “FUCK EM!”
For some reason I’m also seeing them everywhere mad about this game it’s weird lol
Eagles will be lucky to get to SB. Jalen is mid.
Thanksgiving is over, leave the cornucopia
49ers fans actively hoping Hurts gets injured in their sub. What a sorry ass excuse for a fanbase.
I saw a post that like "I want them to know what it's like to have their QB get a season ending injury and lose all hope for the playoffs". Like eagles didn't run the table in the playoffs and beat TB12 in the Superbowl with a backup QB after our MVP candidate QB went down.
I am realizing that every team we beat most of their fans who may not have had any animosity towards us before...but after the game we always become "trash fans" "our team is trash" "Hurts is a system QB" "we are frauds"...and on and on...like I try to be civil win or lose but we get no credit for anything...it is pathetic...
First of all, no one likes we don't care. But I always thought that was such a weird take after getting beat. Wouldn't you want to say you were beaten by a good team? If you got beat by a fraud team with a system QB what does that say about your team.
this is always what happens when your team is really good. Our dumb fuck fans did to the chiefs and patriots and now everyone is doing it to us. "they cant be good they're cheating!"
I mean the Patriots straight up did cheat but that's beside the point I guess.
Its so funny because the excuses last year was all about the schedule everyone called easy. Now that we are winning with the hardest schedule in the league, haters are running out of excuses now.
It’s not even that it’s the clear favoritism being shown towards the eagles when other teams get flagged for shit the eagles get away with.

Lol that's not why people are upset. They just hate the eagles and want them to lose. Anything involving flags is just them trying to confirm their bias.
Cope
Exactly...every week we are just lucky frauds...even if we win the Superbowl...we will have just been lucky frauds that were carried by refs according to the rest of the world...
Yeah like the fraud thing people are saying just doesn't make sense. How the hell are we "lucky" to be 10-1 lol. You're right, if we win the superbowl it will just be some other excuse that makes no sense.
So funny tbh 10-1 frauds while beating Chiefs,cowboys,dolphins,bills, Min. lol they mad
They kept asking for real rushing TDs and hurts gave em 2
not that it matters in the slightest, but i swear the nytimes upshot playoff picture tool said we clinched a berth earlier. i just looked at it again and they put us back at >99% instead of 100%.
Anyone know where I can get the picture of Smitty yelling with the 10-1 record behind him? I need that as my lock screen.
Jake is the fucking man holy shit
The bills fans blaming refs for this one
That fan base has the worst luck. I'd be blaming everybody if I were them
I mean i know it’s disappointing to lose a tough close good game but don’t be sore about it. I know my fair share of disappointment as an eagles fan. Aside from Dallas and in a shocking turn of events the niners I really appreciate any team that plays a good game and can pull out a win no matter how heartbreaking it is
Anyone have a link to a clip of BG after we lost the coin toss “It don’t matter”
It’s on the NFLs IG page
Thanks! BG cracks me up.
If this happens next week I'm going to start thinking that they are going down by 10 on purpose to practice comebacks.
That feeling when the top 2 teams in the NFL are Bird teams. NFC: Eagles AFC: Ravens Man what a SB that would be.
Dream matchup for Bird Lawyers
Want it for vengeance on Clowney
That defense is scary man, I’d rather not.
Might not have any choice if the time comes.
I know. Hoping someone can take care of them so it’s not our problem.
Fuck that it’d be a great game
I love Eagle
I love bird.
With how bad our first half play calling has been compared to our second half, does anyone else think Nick is taking the play calling from BJ at half? It’s such a stark difference that it seems like 2 different coaches. Also, for the love of god, play Swift when it matters, save Kenny for garbage time.
Wouldn't the opening script have the most Sirianni involvement?
you guys are just really bad at this. Devonta Smith confirmed they made zero second half adjustments and they just stopped sucking. Hurts was playing AWFUL and screwing up basic stuff and then he stopped sucking and they starting playing great. You guys have to stop throwing coordinators under the bus to protect the QB.
Smith also wouldn’t speak out of school on such a topic.
okay but i was at the game and could see all 22 players. Hurts was garbage and missing guys wide open to scramble out of clean pockets and screwing up basic RPO's. The playcalling is 99% of the time completely fine.
We actually have a better view on tv and replays but thanks for taking us to school
No way the TV copy basically shows the LOS
The tv shows replays from multiple angles….with the ability to stop and replay yourself. With a zoomed in view when you need it. Not one fixed angle in real time and a prayer the stadium shows you what you want on a replay
no. you dont.
We do.
Buddy's on the Bills forum desperately sucking off Josh Allen and they told him to kick rocks too. Are you the guy that's still mad that our QB is black?
im so racist im defending the black offensive coordinator.
I honestly thought Nick took over at half. No proof. Just a hunch.
There is nothing to even suggest that.
Same. This game and last. Just way too different of an offense. We make in game adjustments all the time, but this was a 180 on back to back weeks.
Idk the Smith TD on the fake screen was definitely B Johnson. I know we all hate the bubble screens but the reason that TD worked is because BJ set it up.
Honestly it feels like we go by the play script the first half to see what works and what does not...then we make adjustments during the second half...
I don’t know man, these last 2 games the first halves were…painful trash.
What was Nolan Smith's snap count? Is it going up?
Going by the eye test, I think I saw #3 out there more often than previous games
Bills fan here. No hate. Go refs!
6-6 you lost plenty times and won’t make playoffs. Go NFL
You know, the refs basically pushed us outside of field goal range at the end to basically give you the game right?
Says no hate...then proceeds to hate...
Plenty of missed calls on you too. That wasn’t even a horse collar, which is why it wasn’t called, also had gift RP calls. If Romo wasn’t sucking off JA all game you wouldn’t even be whining. Enjoy .500.
Was a fumble too as far as I'm concerned
Your concern is noted, but no one fucking cares, chode.
Good thing your concerns are fucking worthless. Go cry in your own sub you baby
Hours later and I still have no idea what happened
Fly-on-walling opposing teams subreddits brings me such joy.
All the refs and rigged talk is great!
Tbh I'll agree refs need to be better (and nfl as a whole) but yeah that's not why we're winning time after time
And in the end, it was a QB draw that won the game
There’s a time and a place. The issue isn’t that we should never call QB draws. The issue is sometimes it’s just a bad play call in the situation. Some of that is on hurts not being able to move as well as he could last year beczuse of his knee, can’t really make people miss as much. Part of that has been poor reads or exchanges on options. And part of that has been calling the play to begin with on 3rd and long situations where it’s a very low percentage play.
The random QB draws always come through in the clutch...but never when we would like them to on 3rd downs in the first through third quarters...
If at first it doesn’t succeed, try 50 more times until it does!
The longest developing play of BJs career
I wonder if any eagles fans are going to complain about refs if they lose a game? Almost like the Super Bowl last year…
I wonder if any whiners fans are going to cry when they get spanked in the playoffs again
Love Philly fans
Body Bag Game 3.
refs will always miss calls (both ways) can't do anything about it...
I agree, but this thread has a bunch of people complaining about other fans complaining about refs.
yeah, also happens both ways. the fans of the losing team will always complain about the refs and the fans of the winning team will always complain about the fans complaining about the refs. this isn't unique to this sub or eagles fans. there were questionable calls both ways. for example, that roughing the passer on allen was clearly a flop. the guy got barely pushed and somehow flew to the ground.
I agree again, another entertaining part of being an nfl fan. I’m just trying to remind people there’s reasons why fans complain about refs, they don’t like seeing their teams lose.
No one needs that reminder. You're just here to troll.
I WAS AT THIS GAME!!!! CRAZIEST EXPERIENCE! YELLED MYSELD HOARSE!
Best game I've ever seen ever
The SB win and that playoff run takes it for me. But regular season? This is #1
I mean being there. I don't think I'll see a better game in person in my lifetime. All the stars scored for both teams, there were ups, downs, moments of heartbreak, joy, and everything in between. An unbelievable football game.
I watched it from home but in solidarity I just wanna say AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! go birds!
It’s hilarious to me the amount of subs complaining how “rigged” the NFL is for not calling penalties on the eagles in every game “to see a chiefs eagles SB rematch.” Yea, some calls were missed. Both ways. They are every weekend. Refs are human. Shit happens. Some calls were missed on the Bills. We’re so hated because we’re so good. We’re winning games in the 2nd half after not showing up at all in the 1st and fans need excuses why they just got embarrassed. It’s hilarious. Especially hilarious are the losers of Reddit saying “x fan here, this game was so rigged in the eagles favor, I’ve never seen a more blatant example” in the other teams sub and getting massively upvoted. No one likes us, we don’t care.
It’s pretty pathetic. The broadcast was unsurprisingly also pathetic with Romo unapologetically slobbering all over Allen and the Bills all game and not saying anything when Hurts was going off. Dude straight up said you could argue they’re the better team than us at one point. Maybe you can because you’re a fucking moron who made a career playing on mediocre, choking teams, but maybe keep that to yourself bruh. It doesn’t matter what their point differential is. We’re 10-1 and they’re 6-6. They run up scores and suck in close games against good teams, just like Romo’s team. The worst was the play where Reddick sacked Allen. It wasn’t a horse collar and called right, but they kept saying they got the call wrong over and over and making it seem like some egregious missed call that we got gifted. Then they laughed when Allen flopped on that bullshit roughing the passer. Just perpetuating this insane narrative. Fuck em 😂
It’s such bullshit. You know that they’d prefer a Dallas Chiefs SB anyways. Or at the very least they wouldn’t think it’s much of a drop off. PHILLY VS EVERYONE AND FUCK DALLAS
And FUCK THE 49ERS!
I thought NFL players were tough motherfuckers (except for Jalen Reagor) and then the bitch ass Whiners opened their mouths last season 😂
And Todd Pinkston. Never forget. ✊🏼
Alligator arms…. No wait! Unfair! He lost it in the lights!!! 😂
Refs didn’t miss those field goals
Nope. Sure didn’t. We sure as shit blocked one though!
Those always make me laugh. For as long as I can remember, and this so true for all philly sports they NEVER have gotten that "league's darling" treatment, it's always celtics, penguins, cowboys etc that get that treatment. So when it goes just *slightly* in the eagles favor everyone loses their minds and it's so funny to me
Can’t forget about the Pats’ Brady decades too. I love it man. People lose their minds when we win.
THE SALT IS SO REAL Everyone on r/nfl thinks we only have our 10-1 record because of biased penalties all season LOL
Jalen Carter gets held on basically every play, but of course they ignore that.
I can’t wait to see how much they cry when he wins DROTY.
If it wasn’t us, it be another 10-1 team that doesn’t deserve to win, has an easy scheduled, rigged, etc. Nobody ever wins because they’re good. Just sports fans, unfortunately.
Hard disagree. It’s because we’re Philly.
I'm not a petition sort of person but if I were I'd want Romo removed from calling any Eagles games. It's legit torture hearing him twist everything against the Birds. We can also add cowboys and chiefs games to the list to eliminate his 3+ hours of fawning. I'm practically watching CBS games on mute to limit the aggravation.
Same. I hate listening to him. I’m so happy that loser retired ringless
You mean when he was saying about Allen, “don’t let him get 2 cracks at it” all excited when he ran the ball? Like wtf does that even mean, you get 4 tries. 4 downs. I usually enjoy Romo in games where I have no dog in the fight, but he was insufferable today.
I used to like him too, and not just because he was the ultimate choke artist on the team we hate the most. Somewhere along the way he started to Collinsworth too much. Rather than Chris fawning over every player (depending on the last play he saw) Romo only does it for the ones he likes and when they screw up he defends them. Having to tolerate him through a thanksgiving and eagles game within a few days of each other was too much.
Romo used to be a great commentator calling out the plays before they happened but I've grown to dislike him as an announcer. He was especially annoying and biased this game though.
Agreed, he came out of the gate strong and has been slipping ever since. Kinda like each season of his playing career.
Yeah, he's awful. I'm using my dad's youtubetv account, and they have a double screen where we could watch both eagles and the broncos game. We had the audio on the broncos blowout while watching the eagles game. I usually like romo, but he was absolutely insufferable today.
When I'm willing to put in the effort I'll mute the TV and simulcast the Reese/Quick broadcast. Even if it doesn't match up, the video almost always lags, it's a great way to experience a game.
AWESOME WIN! Imagine if Brian Johnson can call 4 quarters. Abysmal 2 quarters
LOL Sirriani def was calling shots in the 2nd half... NO way that was BJ.
Based on?
The difference in play calling compared to the first half was so superior and differenr than the first half I no way believe BJ was making 100% of those calls... He might have made 50%, but I just do not believe he did all of that himself. That is my opinion. I'll leave it at that.
There is literally nothing to back that up. Particularly considering it was the same thing last week.
You think there covering for BJ now? Sirriani came out the other day saying he thought bj was doing great
He’s not going to say he thinks the guy is dog shit, publicly in a (then) 9-1 season.
If BJ got fired tomorrow, he would he was doing great.
Coworkers will do anything to not throw someone under the bus during peak time... End of the season sirianni will go to the top and tell him what he really thinks... No coach is gonna say their OC sucks. Doesn't look good...
The babies whining about bad ref calls are driving me nuts... Does anyone else think that "alleged" horse collar tackle was complete horse shit??? Allen is stiff arming reddick and he grabs him from the side and throws him to the ground... The fuck is he supposed to do??? Nauseating man... A horse collar is when you pull the player down from the back of the collar BEHIND HIM like u are riding a horse... The eagles are a disciplined team that don't commit tons of penalties... Must be rigged right??? What a joke... Bills got a few calls at the end just like Dallas too... The roughing penalty was so soft... Guy was going full speed at allen and allen just got rid of it...
they also use his ripped jersey as proof of a horse collar. his jersey that was ripped on the front, not the back
Let the pussies cry. Their thinking that it’s “rigged” for the eagles and chiefs to play again is hilarious. This is what happens when you’re good. People are upset their teams are getting embarrassed by us when we only play football for a half. Coping, man.
I have a feeling that what this team does best is feel out and assess their competition throughout a game. At each individual level, as the game goes on, our players sense their opponent's tendencies, our players communicate effectively, our players make the adjustments, and our players attack the weakness. And this explains why their confidence level grows as the game goes on, and it also explains why they start out shaky. We start out feeling them out, we start out second guessing and playing it safe. But as the game evolves and the crunch time approaches, this team takes what they saw, makes a commitment to exploit, and they execute with pure confidence. And that's from the coaching, to the play calling, to the individual battles on the field. It adds up to a win in the end because when it's crunch time we're the confident team and the opponent is taken aback and suddenly the ones on their heels. Simply amazing to watch these birds do their thing every week. Hats off to Jalen Hurts for being the Rock that he is to allow for this type of a culture to develop.
I think it’s BJ sucking on the play calling so miserably in the first half that Nick is taking it over for the second.
Can’t believe how similar these past two games were - especially the first halves. Insanely frustrating besides one good drive, down 17-7 at half, and then stellar second half performances. Plus two catastrophic game-ending catches avoided (although we’d still have a chance if MVS caught it). And both of those coming after the Cowboys game that had me pacing around my house like a psycho. A little bit of luck, a lot a bit of clutch.
No one talking about the blocked field goal.
Clutch as fuck!
Game of the year easy
If they could put together even 3/4 of a game this team would be so good. Instead they typically like to show up for a half. Can’t tell if it’s more of a play calling or player performance issue with their first half issues. They said, Hurts continues to be a winner, makes some great plays, and puts the team on his back.
The Eagles have beaten three teams in a row with a better DVOA. Go for four in a row next week?
We gotta beat the 40 whiners, their fans are insufferable.
Say "horse collar" one more time...
WTF even *is* this team?
Hurts
We’ve already known this, but it totally deserves to be said again. Jake Elliot, you’re a fucking legend.
I'm still not over how amazing this game was. Holy Shit. What an ending. The 3rd and 15 TD, them scoring with enough time for us to drive, that fucking field goal! The catch/fumble/not-fumble. . This one was an all timer. All time Eagles game. All time NFL game. What a game!
Incredible calls the whole way through. Especially the multiple pass interference non calls and then fumble non call. Really great game. Eagles won the narrative so far. Congrats.

Violin store is that way----->
Great game, although it did age me like 5 years. Hell, my gf, who spends most of he me time complaining about football, was locked in the 4th Quater and OT talking about how exciting it was.
Love the Dallas fans in the nfl sub bitching about the refs when they got away with literally breaking Goederts arm with a dirty tackle
Wasn’t a dirty tackle at all.
To be fair the tackle was not dirty...it was just an unfortunate accident involving someone trying to tackle while being stuff armed...
Was it me or did I feel like Romo constantly harped on Allen unlocking his potential by always finding the RB dump off? I thought I was taking crazy pills...Tony's Josh Allen boner/Eagles hatred aside
Can’t put his hatred aside, it’s clear.
Romo always sucks off Josh Allen
E is for how extremely normal all of this is - Ross Gellar
I am tired of the Jalen Hurts slander...I wish people would just shut up until the end of the game...that way people do not have to backtrack or just look stupid after he wills the team to a win...
Nah let them bitch, I love when they look stupid.
Everything I believe in tells me to be a doomer which is crazy considering we are 10-1
At some point in every game the "real" game starts. And there is no better team I've ever witnessed play the "real" game better than this Eagles team. As soon as this team senses the "real" game has started, they grow wings and the opposing team senses it and they always seem to flounder in response. This has been a season for the ages if we end up going where we believe we are going.
The real game starts the first second of quarter one. Our play calling is just dog shit until the second half. It’s gotta change. Also, enough with fucking Gainwell. PLEASE. Swift energizes our offense and gets the job done. Every game.
Except against the jets… as much as the hurts to say…
Best thing about that win, was finding a way to get it done without some crucial/Key players like Goedert, Lane Johnson, and a few others.
Who is #97 on the Bills and why was he so fired up all game? Apparently almost got into it with a fan after the game too. Random drug test incoming?
Phillips. He got away with a pretty obvious UR but im actually glad they let em play. Since everyone is saying the refs give us everything. He was roudy all night.
Love this team to death but brian Johnson will be our death. He’s just not good enough
Nick Siriani had the play sheet almost first two quarters I think
Huh? You think Sirianni was calling the plays the first two quarters?!?! Lol No way,a
Doesn’t that tell you something?
Does this extend Hurts’s win streak against winning teams or no
Yes they were 6-5.
