Interesting comment about the Philadelphia Eagles...
In case you've lost track, the Eagles are the obvious team of the decade in the NFC. And it's not even close.

8. Oh Kama
don't confuse Mad. Like where is Washington and Dallas' rings from the aught-aughts? And where is the statistical comparison which he lists with those of the Giants. I didn't make the original post but I have a hard time arguing with it.

3. This could be their year
They're playing better as the season progresses. And Westbrook should be healthy for post season.

5. NOT the team of the decade if they haven't won the Big One.
End of story.
