Believe it’s possible we could lose to the Packers, Titans and Giants. A three game losing streak would turn everything on its head at that point in the season.

Colts hired Jeff Saturday. Tank is on!

Is there anyone on the Dolts staff that has ever called a play in the NFL?

Just list every game can be a loss... this way " I called it"

Something you’ll never be able to say "you called it” considering you never go out on any limbs on anything. Just hindsight from you mostly…which still doesn’t find its way to accuracy.

Game ball to the punter over Tom Brady….bet you absolutely can’t believe it.

Except I very specifically skipped the next two. Haven’t mentioned it yet this season happening. So instead I was incredibly specific.

The fact that only 2 teams have gone undefeated in the regular season in NFL history tells you how hard that is......I don't pay any attention to the "strength of schedule" nonsense, and the eagles will be playing teams fighting for playoff spots......or just trying to salvage their season this month.

And the eagles have 4 NFC East games left and those games are always unpredictable.....And if the eagles lock up the 1st seed with 2 weeks left in the season, how much will sirianni play the starters?  

I think the eagles simply need to focus on the Foreskins.  Try to improve the areas of their game that need some refining.  The special teams, the rush defense, being more consistent on offense are areas that haven't hurt them yet, but as the season grinds on, they could be areas where they can be taken advantage of......

I think with this mini bye, and an NFC east game and the Linc crowd being riled up, they could really dominate this week.

Welp I disagree. Strength of schedule matters and is not "nonsense". With what +16-18 turnover ratio doesn't hurt any team I'm aware of. next team with those numbers is a distant 2nd. Still playing dink and dunk with the D saving the day. If your team is superior, doesn't matter if they are fighting for a playoff spot or not, you PUT THEM DOWN because you have the better team.Other than the Vikes the other teams did not have winning records and while any team can lose(as evidenced this week) having an easy schedule makes it.....well easier. Other points are fine,every team does the same,tries to fix their problem areas. We are no different than the other 31 teams. My hope is we get to post season at 100% health because that has been an issue for us many times. So far,not too terribly bad there. I feel the BU's could use more garbage time snaps if we have a big enough lead to warrant it

I thought Hurts had leadership skills beyond reproach? If that's the case,then he can lead us to victories? D has has saved his butt on may occaisions. In post season that will be harder to do,so those leadership skills need to come out now in the tougher games. I want Dullaz with Dak,then there are NO excuses left for them. We have always played well at AT&T and we need to best them again. As far as GB,we have a pass rush and we need to have that against them. Adams is gone and his receivers now can't take up that slack. Same as everyone else,get to the QB and we win

Because we have an easy schedule????? (which you still refuse to believe lol). A decent schedule would be one where you aren't convinced of a win in ANY game

40/1 odds at the MVP to start the season….when I was pondering the possibility. Now 3/1

Yeah whatever. Mahomes barely won and the Bills lost,so being undefeated has it's perks, but other than the Vikes, the rest have losing records and that +18 turnover ration makes Hurts look terrific because of all those added opportunities to stat pad. Can't wait until we play a good team the the D can't save the day like they have been doing. Maybe he can prove he deserve the award,not saying he can't but it's been cakewalk to this point. MVP doesn't mean much to me unless you prove it by getting to the SB(even if you lose GET THERE). So,we'll see. The Eagles defense should get that award.Pity it's only relegated to one player

And someone cares about this??? After his divorce he is 1-0 . I'm sure Brady has enough accolades he could care less too,but we need that TMZ drama!!!!!!

Really weird. Taylor started out great,then fizzled. Bad QB's, loss of staff now, pitiful ownership. Isray,Snyder and Elway should be tin plated. All terrible.

Saints going down-YAY!!!!!!

Camarda's biggest kick came on a 74-yard punt in the third quarter where he completely flipped the field. The rookie blasted his punt from his own 15-yard line down to the Rams' 11, where the ball went out of bounds.       So punters don't matter???? The rest of the team seemed on board with the coaches decision??? Yet you clammored for us to get the punt god???? This wasn't his only kick where he changed field position. I think he deserved it. Stop rewarding the same old same old,give others some recognition sometimes

Was 8 before these games,don;t see them going on a win streak. They may win a few,so 4,5,6 still looking good

FL you do realize that a big part of the turnover ratio is that Hurts isn’t turning the ball over, right?

You also realize that many of those takeaways are interceptions that happen with us in the lead forcing the other team to throw?

Josh Allen being evaluated for an elbow injury.

If he goes out the Bills are done.

Strength of schedule has been proven to that is doesn't matter....it is talking point nonsense. There's so many things it doesn't take into account......means nothing.

The NFL is long season......some teams start off bad for any number of reasons, but gradually improve during the year....they may have new coaches and it takes game time to fully implement new systems, some teams have alot of new faces that get better in those systems during the year and young guys may get in the flow as the year goes on.  

Some teams start off with some wins, but may gradually fade due to injuries, overconfidence, poor coaching......

So some teams that are fighting for playoff spots might not have good records, but are still in playoff races.  Superior teams don't always beat the inferior teams in the NFL.....it's where the "any given sunday" term comes from..........there are no easy schedules in the NFL.....the week to week games, whether they are divisional games, national TV games, or fighting for a playoff spot, can be tough games where predictions go out the window.

Strength of schedule is a bad measure of anything.  Thinking the eagles can go 17-0 is a longshot.  Those games against the giants, cowpies and the titans are going to be tough games.  And what if the packers finally wake up?  The saints, as bad as they look, are capable of putting together a good game..  

I think the eagles are the best team in the NFC....with the most complete depth......but every team has weaknesses that other NFL teams can take advantage of and strength of schedule takes none of that into consideration.

  1. Whether my opinion changes or not, it doesn’t stop me from being right.

No picks on 4 yard passes. Excellent "reach" though to make a non point
