Well I'm a bit disappointed that we lost tonight but I'm not too upset. Were it not for the Cooper drop in the third or the Foles sack in the red zone in the first half, this might have been a different game. Overall, we had a great season that exceeded most people's expectations. However, I will say that we have to get rid of our safeties big time.

Offence wasn't good enough but we still had the chance to win the game. Henery missed FG and then his short kickoff both killed us.

We should let Saints get touch down when they pushed within our 30 yards with 3 mins left then hand our Offense group to decide the game winner.

Not even mad. At least we won the NFC east. Hate the Giants and Cowboys more than I wnated to win this one lol.

We blew a really good chance at making some noise. Very frustrating loss.

i dont know how you cant be mad even with the big progress we have had this season, Nick Foles looks like a franchise QB, and we have some great pieces in place. Defense needs a couple new safetyS and pass rushers, this draft this offseason will BE CRUCIAL!! Still we shouldve won this game! DUMB MISTAKES ON SPECIAL TEAMS, BAD DROP BY COOPER AND A MISSED FIELD GOAL BY HENERY. AHHHHHHHHH A MISSED OPPORTUNITY

Obviously this team went farther than most of the fanbase expected, but losing after mounting a nice little comeback still stung.

The Sixers beating a tough Trailblazers team on the road made it even worse and harder to fall asleep. Guess I'm rolling with the Flyers for now.

The Eagles had a great turnaround year. This time last year we were rock bottom, 4-12, with a dark future. Now with a good head coach, good young QB , and a GM that had a good draft last year. The sky is the limit. With a couple upgrades at OLB, safety, and WR. We will be in a position to takeover the NFC east the next 10 years.

Exactly how I feel.

I just hope we get a couple more great years out of Shady. Star running backs have short shelf lives in this league.

I'm really proud of the team this year. They exceeded the expectations of many. It looks like we have our future QB in Nick Foles! Positions that have to be improved through the draft and free agency are safety, cornerback depth, outside LB, DL depth, get another WR in there, sign a vet backup QB, and maybe get a kicker with a strong leg. The salary cap won't be an issue. The future is bright.

As a bigger Eagles fan than Sixers fan (barely), I am really sad, but I am confident we'll be back next year. We have a great coach, QB, skill positions, oline, and our defense is coming along well. We don't have too many needs either.

1. Safety
2. Rush 3-4 DE/LB
3. Kicker
4. CB
5. Backup Oline/Dline

Also the cowboys again are in turmoil. Redskins backwards. Giants are just degressing. I see us in first next year.

True but great running backs really don't matter. Just need a serviceable one.

Nick Foles pro bowl MVP. Not bad.

Pretty sure this is what Redskins fans were saying last year. This is the NFC East ANYTHING can happen.

Even after RGknee went down? Doubt it.

Our coach and QB like each other, that's one huge difference already to the Skins.
