A little off topic but I think in general the hard core rivalries are not what they use to be. Especially in the NFC East. Free agency has killed that. To me, everyone in the NFC East is pretty even. They're are rivals but I don't dislike any of them any more or less. Not the case in the early-mid 80's when it was pure hatred for Dallas, or the late 80's early 90's when Philly hired Buddy Ryan. That was a pretty intense rivalry w/ the Eagles. Or LT and the Giants. Those were what I called REAL rivalries w/ REAL characters in those days. Now? Eh...just another weekly division game. Hell, we have a former Cowboy on our d-line. lol.
