yeah, continuity makes for rivalries this day in the nfl. Most rivalries these days seem based on a short history. nowadays there aren't as much rivalries as sub dramas, e.g. to returns to philly, lavar plays the skins.
I think we've developed a short term rivalry w/Tampa, those games have been really tough, and they even beat us w/a rook qb.
