Several times during this football season I've made the comment that I was content with improvement when it comes to the Eagles. That if they merely finished the season with a 14-2 record, or maybe a superbowl appearance and loss, I'd be okay because it was still progress. Well, I guess I need to caveat that slightly. While I still believe that a 14-2 record would rock, I'd really prefer that it were 14-wins and 2-hard-fought-losses. None this laying on the ground with a sign that reads "stab here with sharp object" crap. I know the reasons they did it. And I can't say I wouldn't have done it the same way, but darn that was something frustrating.
Strangely I had a premonition of this outcome a few hours before the game. I was thinking that the tragedies come in threes, and that with the T.O. situation and then the Reggie White tragedy, something had to be next. Why not a stinker of a loss to a team that almost didn't want to take what we were handing them?
