I can respect your knowledge of the game, as he obviously does not have. Philly is always a contender. With that said. It is all about the trophy.

I wasn't so much saying the you said the Eagles weren't a championship caliber team, so much as the empty trophy case post up there, along with many other Giants fans I encounter (not all of them, though). And again, with it being all about the trophies, the Eagles Trophy case would have trophies in it.

I know that Giants probably have more, but my point is that the Eagles case isn't empty. But, I will admit that the only one that truly matters in this day and age is the one that is missing from the case.
Oh, and the playoff question:
