Eagles Lose To Saints: Knee-Jerk Reactions
PHILADELPHIA,
PA – JANUARY 04: (L-R) Nick Foles #9 of the Philadelphia Eagles talks
with head coach Sean Payton of the New Orleans Saints after their NFC
Wild Card Playoff game at Lincoln Financial Field on January 4, 2014 in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The New Orleans Saints defeated the
Philadelphia Eagles 26 – 24.
I’ve always said, I’d rather my team lose a big game in a blow out
than lose at the buzzer, or in the final seconds. Final second losses
sting the most because all you can think about afterwards is, “what if
this”, “what if that.” You replay those moments over and over again.
The Eagles won 10 games and the NFC East under a first-year head
coach in Chip Kelly, a first-year starting quarterback (sort of) in Nick
Foles, and a completely brand new defensive system. They hosted a
playoff game as a three-seed against a proven winner. This loss stings, a
lot, but we have to keep it in perspective.
