I want the Eagles to have a two touchdown lead throughout the whole game, be completely dominant and then lose in the final 2 minutes. Why? Because all of the cocky Eagles fans will be drunk, high on life and then, be throwing themselves off of the roofs of their double wide trailers. Go Falcons!

If the Eagles win and go to the Super Bowl, at least the Redskins can say that they played a Super Bowl team tough in one of their meetings. That would seem to be motivating and positive for a team that was a whole lot worse than anyone here on The Warpath thought they would be. Since the Skins are not part of the playoffs, why not pull for a team whose winning might boost the image/reputation/morale/self-esteem of the Redskins?
Same argument for Pittsburgh in the AFC title game...

I don't think our image from 2003 was boosted from having been the last team to beat the Patriots
You know, it's kind of funny how we talk about parity in the NFL and yet here we are once again for the 4th year in a row watching the Eagles in the NFC Championship Game. And for the 3rd time in 4 years the Patriots could win it all. Yet in baseball where allegedly the Yankees run an "evil empire" over the rest of the league there have been 4 different world champions the last 4 years...and not one has been the Yanks
Yeah good point SS, once the team hits the practice field in August what happened this year isn't going to matter much.
Saying we played the Steelers and Eagles tough is something the fans can hang their hats on, but I'm sure the players and coaches could really care less.

Not too much, but I would take another two feet if the Eagles lost tonight. I really hope it warms up so some of this stuff would melt. I really hate driving in this stuff.
