For teams like the Eagles and Cowboys it's what they do in the playoffs that counts and how the season will be measured. If you can't enjoy cheering for a 10-4 football then you are a pretty spoiled fan because cheering for draft position isn't nearly as fun as I can attest. I wouldn't put my money on the Eagles getting to the Super Bowl but I wouldn't be shocked if they managed to get there as they have a better chance than the Cowboys as they don't have playoff demons to overcome.
Who said I wasn't cheering for them? Pointing out their flaws and tempering my expectations accordingly isn't the same as cheering against them.

Unless you thought I was being serious when I said I hope they don't even make the playoffs. I thought that was pretty obvious hyperbole.
