OT: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): When You're Up, It's Never As Good As It Seems, And When You're Down, You Never Think You'll Be Up Again

[FLYguy3911]

I need one of those hats. Are they not selling them?

Clyde E-H playing is a big plus for the Chiefs.

Not really. He was getting phased out before he got hurt.

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

Kill them by seven billion. Now.

It's on like Donkey Kong

Also

I'm Pavlov's Dog. Anytime I hear the pointsbet "jingle" I look up and expect to see Paige.

I is disapoint.

I said this exact thing a week or two ago, and now this site's weaksauce search feature won't let me find it

They sold out online already because Fanatics controls everything.

Figured. Did they have Chiefs ones? I didn't see them wearing them.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

They did. They weren’t media night “official” hats. The players probably just thought that the official ones were trash so they chose to wear those instead.

I know that that jabroni fan, Erock, got one at the stadium store. They may still have them.

They’re called:

Super Bowl LVII Tarmac 9FIFTY Snapback​

I grabbed one at the stadium shop on Friday and they had a ton of them in stock. Unless they were wiped out over the weekend with the send off party, they should still have plenty. It does suck how difficult it has been to find super bowl gear though. I too hate fanatics with a passion.

Yeah so those were the hats given to the team in the plane for them to wear after landing yesterday

This was supposed to be official hat from last night

The official beanie and sweatshirt from Opening Night already sold out, though. Heat Pressed graphics at $150. Be happy you didn't pay it.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I'm cautiously optimistic.

But I'm already over the takes on Mahomes. "He beat Cincinnati on one leg!" and all that stuff. Feel like even if/when Reddick & Co break through, the refs are going to be taking care of him on Sunday.

I've been over those takes since he was injured. Mahomes is a high level pocket passer and that's where he prefers to work. The elite scrambling is a bonus but it isn't his whole game. As long as he is physically capable of throwing he can win. Where the ankle matters is if he still can't run and the Eagles rush is getting through.

Oh honey, I did pay it. They're not heat pressed either. I've been waiting for them to release them since the minute the NFC Championship ended so when they went on sale yesterday I jumped on it.

My Rams jacket from last year is probably the nicest sweatshirt I own. This year's Eagles is also a hell of a lot better than the $250 windbreaker back from LII.

If for some reason you wanted the beanie, they had it at the Cherry Hill store that I could stop by if you really wanted one.

Really? Well shit, oh well. I got a Nike SB sweatshirt from Fanatics as well as a hat with the SBLVII logo on the side and should be arriving today. Just sucks, because I'm in NC Fanatics is literally all I can use so I'm completely held hostage by their absolute shit stock quantity.

If there's any of the things you wanted, I can peak my head in for you.

I know that they had the jackets yesterday at the Cherry Hill location also but I got mine through the NFL Shop because I get a discount. That should arrive sometime in April (actually late February).

I think I'm good, at least for current merch. I do have family up in Philly as well that I can reach out to if needed.

I am fully planning on being online mins after the game should they end up winning to pick out the best stuff. Missed out on a couple things after SBLII because I waited, and don't plan on doing that again.

Also, of course as I was typing my last message, the hat and sweatshirt arrive. I got this one

mainly because I got the Phillies dugout WS sweatshirt and it was probably one of the most comfortable sweatshirts I've gotten in years, and this was the same one with different graphics. And once again, super comfy.

I know I'm in the wrong place for the first part of my post, but here goes--

I did the SAME THING after Colorado won the Cup this last June, and went on to buy a pretty unhealthy amount of Cup Champs merch: multiple shirts (including the on-ice Champions shirt), the official locker room hat, pins, buttons, socks, stuff for the wife and kids too. And then asked for stuff for Father's Day and Christmas too.

So I'm with you on being right there if they win...but I'll have to rein it in. I think all I'll be able to do is the official shirt. Wife won't put up with much more of my shenanigans lol.

I missed out in 2018 because I had JUST started my weight loss journey, went from 350 to as low as 160, I'm currently in the 195 range, trying to get myself back in the 180-185 area. So I didn't buy anything then because I was RAPIDLY moving through sizes. This time around, though, I want to partake.

Here's the kicker... I'm going to be in Disney for the game. I fly out on Friday and will be watching from the resort room with the family. But I'm absolutely bringing an old laptop with the explicit purpose of having it logged into Fanatics toward the end of the game, just in case. I missed most of the rush in 2018 (though, I did end up with some good stuff in the end) and I have absolutely zero intentions of missing out this time around.

With that said, should the Eagles win, if any of you are coming to the Stadium Series game in Raleigh, just look for the Eagles flag in the parking lots, haha. (I fly back the day before the outdoor game.... only slightly stressed that the airlines are going to screw me on this one)

You're in the right spot because I did the same thing when the Avs won so we can bring it all together, haha. I'm getting damn close to needing a break from Championship/Final swag. Rams, Avs, Phillies, Eagles for me all in the last 12 months but i'll do the selfless thing and power through it.

I was in Disney for Games One and Two of the World Series myself. That was an experience. I think I woke up everyone in a five room radius when Realmuto hit his homer.

Good news for you at least is that NC isn't that far from Florida if it had to be done by car for you with the SS.

The most stressed I "ever" was with trying to get apparel was after the Phillies won the Pennant this year and MLB Shop/Fanatics absolutely did not load in the stadium but every other website did and yet also somehow I couldn't text my wife other then it being sent five minutes after the fact. So I just sent her FIND THESE ITEMS AND BUY ME THEM! She thankfully nailed it as some of the items were gone by the time I got out of the stadium.

9 hour drive. Worst case, we're getting a rental at the airport and making the drive back up here. Wouldn't be the end of the world, just more of a PITA than it would be otherwise.

Just lie back, close your eyes, and think of England.

 

[Svechhammer]

So the media keeps focusing on the offensive battle between both teams, but I really do think this game is going to be won defensively. And... Well,



Mahomes is going to get his yards and his points against our defense, its inevitable when you go up against a top flight offense. But on paper this game seems to tip heavily in one direction, defensively. Reminds me a lot of SB50 when everyone was focused on the Panthers offense before the game, and in the end, it was the Denver defense that just controlled the game from start to finish. And if Manning hadn't been awful at that point in his career, the Broncos win that one in a slaughter.

I think I'm going to put $ down on AJ Brown to get 2 TDs

Cherry Hill store was absolutely gutted today. That was a waste of an hour.

Randomly my dad was at the Gloucester Outlets today and sent me the picture of the hat and asked if I wanted him to pick one up. Didn’t even talk about it. What are the odds of that?

We don’t speak of that nonsense here.

Count me in as someone that has spent far too much money on merch over the last 12 months.

I hate Fanatics. I told myself I wouldn't buy their garbage quality products anytime soon after splurging on Avs gear after they won it. Looks like they will have the last laugh and make a killing with me again with their poor quality products if the Eagles can pull it off.

Is there any chance that Nike or someone else gets into the mix for SB winning clothing or will it be solely Fanatics again for winners merch (strictly talking clothing here basically)?

Technically speaking the Official Conference Champions Eagles stuff is a Nike product and last year the Official locker room t-shirt for the Rams was Nike also.

Now whether it's Fanatics who is actually producing the items and putting a Nike logo on it who knows. Fanatics is too ingrained in the fabric of all of these leagues and too many owners of teams are invested in Fanatics to have them ever disappear at this point. It's only going to get worse. They're terrible and I will beat that drum every day of my life.
