I can't imagine, as an Eagles player or fan, that they put a Cowboys player on our stadium. Are you serious?!? For them to put a picture of the player that beat us in the playoff last season, reopen that wound? Are you serious, NFL?"

Really enjoyable to hear a player voice the same kind of loyalty and 'crazy' that we all feel about our team. Dawkins is one of the very few non-Redskins players that I have deep feelings for (like Mongo).

Stupid move by Denver. I'm sure they were pushed by whichever TV network or even the league to hang those banners, but I'd also hate to see a banner of the team that just beat is in the playoffs up on our home stadium. Imagine us hanging a Russell Wilson or worse, Dick Sherman banner up!

So much for trying to maintain a home field advantage, Denver.
