Boos In Philadelphia Win: ‘Eagles Fans Are the Best!’

Booing from Eagles fans in the midst of a home victory. … And why? Because they are demanding? Impatient? Rude? Unreasonable?

The Philadelphia Eagles recorded a 34-28 victory in Week 1 over the Minnesota Vikings, reason enough to celebrate … to most people who consider themselves to be “reasonable.”

But as the Eagles got to work at The Linc on “Monday Night Football” - in front of their home fans for the time in a real game since Philadelphia made its terrific 2022 run to the Super Bowl - Eagles fans were …

Booing. And why? Because they are demanding? Impatient? Rude? Unreasonable?

“Philly Fans gotta be the most demanding fans in the entire NFL. It’s Week 2 and they are acting like the Eagles weren’t in the Super Bowl last year," former NFL standout offensive lineman Taylor Lewan chided.

Wrote another observer: "It took less than a quarter into the first home game after the Super Bowl for the Eagles to get booed. I love Philly so much. The best!”

And as always, we note: it’s your (very expensive) ticket. So boo if you wish. But … does doing so help your team win?
