The last two teams to defeat the Atlanta Falcons in the playoffs are the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles.
It was the latter that dethroned the reigning NFC Champions on Saturday with a grind-it-out style 15-10 win at Lincoln Financial Field. The top seeded Eagles did what they had to do, and they got the win they wanted. That is respectable.
Among Cowboys fans respect towards our hated division rival is a rarity, occurring as often as a solar eclipse (probably less often to be honest). As much as it hurts to admit, they’ve had more success since the Cowboys last hoisted the Lombardi (although they never have).
It’s a tough day for Cowboys fans to look at the Philadelphia Eagles
