Keystone dilemma

[Oviedo]

Both Eagles and Steelers out in Round 1.

Who is in a worse place? IMO, the Eagles. They have a far better QB. Probably better roster except for RB and Edge.

The QB situation is what will hold us back. I think the team needs to be open to all options and NO QB on the roster is owed anything except opportunity. Should be open competition.

They have the better roster but are in a worse place?

Eagles are fine. They lost both coordinators and had a SB hangover.

I called us the Keystone Flops when talking to a friend from Philly. He wished me good luck against the Bills AFTER the Eagles got spanked. That’s how jaded Philly fans are this year. Its been 5 weeks of hell for them. lol

Related question; which wildcard team had the worst loss this round? It certainly wasn't the Steelers. My vote says the 'Boys were a huge disappointment. But since I can't stand Jerrah, it was great to see.

Has to be the Cowboys weren't they a 2 seed? Game wasn't even close either. Eagles wasn't surprising but it has to be really disappointing considering they were once 10-1 I think and some were saying they were the best team in the NFL.

Are people forgetting or choosing to ignore that our great 5-1 division record was against backup qbs and a game where they sat 1/3 of their starters?
Are we banking on future success based on other teams qb injuries, forfeit games and backing into the playoffs?

Teams play who is on the field. Unless you are suggesting they postpone games until the other guys are healed. After all the Steelers gifted the other teams with Trubisky at QB.

Since we were a big underdog, I think we're the least dissapointing.

Boys most disappointing by a mile.
Browns next because 2 pick-6s and they have to be thinking what if one of our first few QBs and the best RB in the league didn't get hurt.
Philly. Not a great seeding, but went to the SB last season. Getting stomped.
Miami. All world offense scores 7 points
LAR. Lose a close one...to the QB you left for dead.

I'm disappointed. But I think I'd be more disappointed following any of those other teams.

Where did you get the impression I said to postpone the games?
Id wait but i know you were just making up stuff to avoid the real topic.
They do play their schedule.

The point is fans simply look at the record and making the playoffs without taking anything else into consideration.
Actually, all of tomlins qbs were/are equal.
Playing one or the other wasn’t advantage for our opponents.
It’s all part of the ‘yippee , Tomlin is over .500’ stuff.

There are some people who would take you up on it.

They always have way more sympathy for other teams than their own.

Notice how they never complain about how unfair it is when we have injuries and we lose games
