      are they stupid?

      Judging by some of the Eagles fans commenters in this thread? Yes.

      Blowing out bad teams is great, if you’re beating good teams as well. Blowing out bad teams when you can’t beat any good ones will rightly drive people to question how reliable a high point differential is for your team.

      For the Ravens, it’s clearly a sign of greatness because they’ve beaten some good teams with winning records, including blowing out a team that is competing for the NFC’s 1 seed. For Dallas, it at least means you aren’t ass but the fact that you only seem to run the score up on teams that are verifiably ass (assisted by shit opposing QBs throwing picks) means you can’t draw the conclusion that you are as good as the Ravens. Beat some good teams and the conversation will change.
