Examining whether Eagles fans appreciate the team

When Ross Tucker was on PFT Live earlier this week, he made the case that Eagles fans don’t appreciate the current run of success the team is having. He called the Andy Reid era the “glory days” of the franchise, something we’ve often thought.

“There’s something to be said for winning the whole thing,” CSNPhilly.com’s Ray Didinger told Thursday. “It’s been 51 years since you won a championship. . . . When every year ends the same, you stop being happy about it.”

While the Eagles have easily been the best team in the division over the last decade, they don’t have any titles to show for it. We’ve often thought Eagles fans have been spoiled by success, but Didinger makes a compelling case.

“When you come from the NFC East . . . And you look around. The Dallas Cowboys have five Lombardi trophies, the Giants have three Lombardi trophies, the Redskins have three Lombardi trophies . . . the Eagles, not so much.”
