Are we really that far off from the top….

For those saying we are not desirable. Aging players. Lack of talent. Meddling GM….all the things I keep reading on here.

It’s like if you post it enough, everyone believes it as it continues to pound them over the head.

But…….am I’m sure many will shoot this down…..but……

We played 3 of the Championship week teams. Went 0-3. But….lets look closer.

Eagles: Short of a leak out to Dallas Goebert for about 60 yards, we win that game.

Chiefs: A inexcusable missed PI (not missed, just not called), we are right there ready to tie/take lead late in the game.

Redskins: We are a 2pt conversion from our 5th round rookie QB from winning.

And that’s the best the league has to offer.

Bottom line, we aren’t THAT FAR OFF from the top.

Getting a new coach, a leader, AND NOT SUFFERING CRUSHING INJURIES …..and we absolutely can get back in a season.

We were a play or two away from the best the league has just a few months ago

I know, you are what your record says you are…..but when you really look, it’s not as far a gap as people like to say.

I feel ya on the missed opportunities. Many of us lifelong fans could fill the pages of a really thick book of missed opportunities each year going back to 1967! The Eagles and Commanders played each other for the NFC title, and the Saints were there outplaying both of those teams for about 110 of the 120 minutes of those games against them this year.

But as Mora once said, "Coulda, woulda, shoulda" just "ain't good enough." And so here we are on the edge of a new day on offense, surely, and possibly on defense, too.
