Hell, they’re not allowing fans at the Linc anymore. Maybe they shouldn’t allow the players and coaches either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll either beat the Browns or the Football Team. I don’t see them sweeping Dallas, and sure as hell don’t see them winning any of the next five other than possibly Cleveland. If they lose this week and Wentz still looks bad yet again, they need to just hand the reins to Hurts for the rest of the season. I cant see the hundred million dollar man riding the bench but he needs to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other, do you want to be embarrassed with a big home playoff loss? If the playoffs started today, we'd host Tom Brady and the Bucs. They'd hang 45 on our terrible defense and we'd end up losing by 35+. That's an embarrassment. Not more embarrassing than failing to win this division. And a hell of a lot less embarrassing than quitting when we're literally in first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From how it looks right now he kind of screwed up the 2nd pick in the draft and all the other assets he put in for Wentz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Context matters. Life is full of unexpected surprises. This is why After 2017 season I kept diluting myself that we are Super Bowl champions. Now I know that 2017 was just a nice dream.

They then get smoked in the first playoff game, and get the 18th pick in the draft. If they DON’T win the division they’ll end up picking somewhere around 5th in the draft most likely. it’s very clear what the best situation is.

The only argument is that if we make the play offs then we start with a clean slate. I for one don't quite buy that. A bad team is a bad team end of.

The future has too many surprises to play some kind of clever "lose now to win later" nonsense. And anyone who would advocate anything like that has no business anywhere near competitive sports.

This would be the poster boy for an immediate change to the playoff structure where the Eagles would drop from fourth to seventh and ALL playoff seeding is solely by record (other than winning your division only guaranteeing you a playoff berth) as is done in the NBA.

The Eagles would be alone in first place in the NFC East with the 4th seed and a home playoff game on the horizon heading into Week 11. You'd take that every time, right? Well... I would've totally believed it because that's the same garbage we've had for the past two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best I think we can hope for with Howie is that they will once again try to bring in someone to run personnel and draft and have Howie handle the financial side. Basically the same setup with Joe Douglas. But in reality they probably won't make a change there. Too many scapegoats and excuses with injuries, COVID, and firing some coaches.
