    And what higher expectations have the Eagles not met? Winning their division, a likely top 2 finish in the conference, and possible SB appearance?

    I’ve said it so many times in these threads that this season is not about regular season success. If Sirianni wants to keep his job, he better make the conference championship. He might stand a chance if they lose in the divisional round, but he’s not keeping his job with another wild card loss

    Really tired of hearing about playing for the 5th seed (I get it to a point)

    How did that work out for Cleveland last year? Just play who you play, shit.

    *venting*

    Then all the negativity is premature! They have done what they needed to do to position themselves to get to that point!

    Yeah the idea of playing for a particular seed when you can’t control what the other teams play for in week in week 18 is so silly

    Quit playing scared and just play

    You’re right. The negatively is premature. Sirianni’s behavior is excusable. Who cares that he argues with fans and players and that it’s a bad look for the team. So long as they’re 12-3 and in the playoffs, that’s all that matters

    It drives me nuts because they discuss it like LAC or Pittsburgh will just waltz their way to a win. They easily could but personally I don't fear either Pittsburgh or LAC just like they don't fear Houston.

    The Chiefs, Bills or Ravens are the cream of the AFC another season, does it really matter if you play them in the wildcard or divisional? No imo.

    Still sitting in the stands of a 40-7 game in the rain and cold and cheering “Fire Mayo” is the commitment I’m after

    You’re just not going to convince people that the Eagles problems, whatever they may be, are of legitimate consequence when the team continues to win a lot of games year after year, and is a contender year after year. Idgaf if the coach argues with fans and players lol, most coaches are assholes and have to have a certain level of narcissism to do the job, but when you win who cares, see Patriots Bill Belichick. I’m not comparing their playoff success because they’re incomparable, but winning is hard, and making the playoffs year in and year out is hard, and Sirianni has done just that. Try rooting for a legitimately bad team for some perspective!

    I think Max’s point was “no one cares about the economic hardships Robert Kraft faces even if they are real or he could have Elon Musk money. Dude should try bagging groceries.”
