The National Media really is something else.
After the game, Seth Joyner said something yesterday about how he's done being overly critical of this Eagles team because they just win. At this point, it's not about what it looks like. And he went on a Rant about the national media not giving the Eagles their due respect, and he's tired of them trying to find excuses to discredit this run the Eagles are on.
Once again, the national shows so far are proving Seth's point. A bunch "what-if's". What if there wasn't miscommunication between Allen and his receiver? What if Allen didn't throw that pick that led to an Eagles score....what if [insert excuse here] -- the Bills would've won. Same thing they did with the Chiefs and Mahomes trash receivers; when his receivers have been ass all season. That wasn't a new development. Stephen A literally said the Chiefs should've won last week. In what world, with those receivers? No, they deserved that L for being cheap b*stards who don't value that position.
When is this going to catch up with the Eagles? A team is going to catch them at some point says Dan Orlovsky. The 49ers or the Cowboys.
Now look, the 49ers and Cowboys are formidable opponents, but they are finesse. With the 49ers being more physical with some finesse sprinkled in, especially on offense. Both teams are built to play with a lead -- but they aren't really battle-tested in my opinion - FRONT RUNNERS. As it concerns both teams, if they don't Punch the Eagles in the mouth on sight and let them hang around, it's a done deal for them. We literally witnessed this in the first Cowboys matchup.
One thing no one seems to point out is that the difference between the Eagles and the other top NFC teams (and the rest of the NFL in general) is that they ARE NOT MAKING MISTAKES IN THE CLUTCH, and that's a huge credit to Jalen Hurts and some of the monsters on the DLine.
You cannot flinch against the Eagles & in my opinion, it's hard to see what either team (49ers/Cowboys) has done this season to garner this much confidence in the National media.... It's hard for me to bet against the Eagles right now, and I'm not saying they couldn't drop 1 of the next 2 games, but it's pathetic how the media is just waiting for their downfall, but I guess that comes with the territory when you're running shyt.
END RANT.
