On the surface, things are pretty simple: Playoffs = good. No playoffs = bad. But we know this team, even if they win the division, isn’t really a “playoff team.” They’re mediocre. And with that comes a ton of pros and cons to the Eagles actually making the postseason. It’s 100% okay to be an Eagles fan and not necessarily want them to win on Saturday. I get it. So here are some positives and negatives for an Eagles playoff run– feel free to add your own in the comments.
Pros:
Playoffs are fun.
They could advance past the first round, you know. Anything is possible.
We get to talk about the team with a somewhat positive spin all offseason, which is nice.
The Eagles get a home game.
Jeffrey Lurie pockets more money (con?).
Beating the ‘Skins, Giants, and Cowboys is enough.
Not letting DeSean finish off your season in Philly.
Sports talk radio in the lead up to the playoff game will be amazing.
