You're mad, not sure why though. Maybe because your season just ended.
Your past superbowl wins helped you how exactly this season?
I love how people rely on their past wins and championships, but only when they are CURRENTLY playing like shit. The argument is always, "Yea, you might have beat us this season, but we won so many championships so hah." Even now, the current regular season is over, and those losses are in the past. The Cowboys might just wipe the floor with the Eagles next year, but your superbowl wins from before aren't going to make that happen...
Good argument.
And how was more expected of the Cowboys this season than the Eagles? The Eagles season was the most disappointing of all NFL teams by far (statistically speaking). They had the numbers. How the hell does a team with the 3rd ranked offense and 8th ranked defense not even make it into playoffs?
For someone who claims to not really be bothered by the Eagles winning, you have a lot of hate for no real reason.
