Just saw that Baker Mayfield and the Bucs rolled through Trevor Lawrence and the Jags.  JAX is clearly a fraud; fair to ask if Lawrence will ever be any better than a mid-tier NFL starting QB at this point.  He gave the ball away a bunch today.

Is this the first time you’ve picked the eagles this year?

I picked them against the Cowboys and Hawks

Miami Wins. Cowboys Lose. No excuse, take care of business against the GMen and win this Division. 

The outcome of this game really doesn't change anything.   Eagles still need to win out. 

Okay so division is pretty simple now, if Cowboys finish with same record as us they win it. But we have a half game lead as it stands.

What’s the situation with the Lions? Who has tiebreaker?

The birds just need to man up & win out, no excuses. Even with some injuries they *should* handle these 3 teams.

Enough talk about "the standard" and not playing their best game yet.

Not according to @Sack that QB

Birds still

need to win out to win the NFC East, but ultimately watching Dallas lose to the Miami Dolphins feels like an early Christmas present!!! Merry Christmas everyone, hope Santa brings everyone here an Eagle’s victory!!! 

So basically, we have to hope the Eagles get their crap together and win the next 3 games.....and......root for Dallas to beat the Lions.....ugh!

I'd rather secure the #2 seed than rest starters in week 18.

Given how DET plays outside and on the road… I agree.

Is it because we win the tiebreaker because we beat the bills and chiefs ? 

They need Smith back..WTF was 71 doing

No I think he agrees with me. Dallas would have tiebreaker if we finish with same record now.

If they finished with the same record as the Eagles at 13-4, the Eagles would have won the division.

If the Eagles lose any of their final 3 games and Dallas wins out, Dallas wins the division.

On the broadcast today FOX said the Eagles would very likely win the division due to SOS

 Actually it does. Eagles just need to win the next two games and Dallas loses to the Lions and the Eagles are NFC East Champs (12-4, Dallas 10-6).  The last game will mean nothing in that scenario.  

No matter what I can now rest assured Dallas ain’t going to no SB this year 🤣🤣

I want them to go back to the style they did in the second half of 2021 and at the end of last season in the two NYG and SF games where Hurts was recovering from the injury. Make him strictly a game manager, easier throws, and rely on the run game. You have to take the game out of his hands for a few weeks, he’s too turnover prone. But in order to run that style, you need the defense to hold their end. 

Yeah... seems like they gave him too much responsibility this year. Needs to grow into that. Probably too fast too soon.

If you aren't concerned about the 2 seed it does. If you want the 2 seed, it doesn't.

Baby Jesus is real and he hates the Cowboys 

 

that’s all I got

No not anymore I don’t think. If Dallas wins out and If we drop either game to the Giants they win due to better division record. If we drop to the Cards I think that evens common opponents and Dallas will win due to better conference record, again if they win out.

Crazy how Burrow is the last QB to be drafted #1 overall since Luck to actually play worth his draft position

It doesn't affect division but it affects seeding right with Lions right?

Just got home from family Christmas Eve. I see DAL sucks again. Before this week if DAL and PHI finished with the same record it would have gone to the 5th tie breaker and PHI would win it…on SOV (strength of victory) Not sure at this point if that matters, same records may still have PHI winning it based on game record against common opponents since DAL lost to Miami. I’ll have to look again but I’m still saying as I’ve said for weeks DAL is the 5 seed.

I think the Lions will come down to strength of victory.  We probably need them to lose one more game.  Beat Dallas but lose in Week 18 which they will probably be resting starters since they clinched the Division Today.   My only point is Dallas losing was good for us because we have a chance to go up 1 game.  Again the Eagles basically need to win these next two games and they could wrap up the Division.
