Carson Wentz

Actually, it was. It was in many national outlets including but not limited to ESPN, ABC, CBS, USAToday, etc. Was it the top story? No, but I think most football fans in the country have heard about it by now.

By the way, this post isn't complaining, it's just a factual response to yet another post whining about other people whining.

Do have links? I'm only asking because I never saw the complaints outside the Vikings fanbase.

Again, every opposing fanbase gets the same treatment from the Eagle fanbase. There's a reason why people tell them not to wear their team colors if they're going to watch a game at Lincoln Financial Field. If you do, you're going to get what you're asking for there.

And no, it's not whining about people whining. It's telling a fanbase to get over themselves. If the Vikings don't lay an egg, their fanbase isn't complaining and nobody is claiming that an injured player needs to stand up and teach his fanbase how to behave. It's beyond stupid to think that way.

I agree with CM as I never heard or read anything about this other than locally. It's only been an issue around here and MN. Thank God as I could imagine what the rest of the country would think about the ongoing whining and crybaby tactics of the Minnesota fans.

Here are a few. Just remember, YOU are extending this discussion by asking for details.

If this was like any other game in Philly, the Eagles should be under investigation by the NFL for allowing it to happen. The Eagles couldn't even provide safe passage for the opposing team after all, that would be inexcusable if it happens again. But this was not like any other game. Obviously the NFC championship is going to bring out more passion and excitement, as well as greater coverage.

If the Vikings had won, I doubt few, if any, are complaining. It's not like Minnesota fans were the first to receive this type of treatment from the Eagle fanatics and they won't be the last. However, I doubt we'll ever hear about this much complaining from the losing fanbase. That alone tells you the difference between the Vikings' fanbase and others. Get over yourselves, the rest of the country doesn't care, and hence, why the mistreatment wasn't national news.

So much this.

Bunch of sore losers.

The fact that this is the defense for the behavior that goes on says everything you need to know about the situation and how absurd it is. People are "asking for it" by supporting their team at an away game. That's ridiculous.

Not saying it's right, but there is no reason to be surprised.

Have you ever seen them both in the same room at the same time?

Exactly. They could have worn Bison gear and had free beer and stuff all day …

As for the Vikings, I was a die-hard fan until about a decade ago. Now I just watch with mild amusement. It's a very freeing perspective.

I hope Foles plays out of his friggin mind on Sunday.
