How many predicted the eagles were going to the super bowl? or winning the NFC or the NFCEast in preseason?  They had the "strength of schedule" nonsense to refer to......

None. 

I remember seeing a few SB predictions for Eagles/Chargers and Eagles/Bills. Also a few others I can't recall.

I remember some that said Cowboys win the East.

Chachere arguably outperformed K’Von Wallace in training camp and the preseason games but that didn’t stop the team from keeping the latter as their third safety instead. Wallace has noticeably struggled whenever he’s played defensive snaps this season. According to Pro Football Reference’s charting, Wallace has been targeted three times and allowed three catches for 39 yards and a perfect 158.3 passer rating. 

Chachere  has been put on the roster.

I like Blankenship….don’t know if he has slot versatility though.

Josiah Scott is hurt.

So instead of Scott and Wallace….go with Chachere. He’s a great STalso.

Wallace you just gotta consider cutting frankly.

If only we had some other legit S/DB to be grooming to add in….

An accurate ball allows YAC. How many yards do the guys pick up after catching the bad passes?

Cost McNabb the hall of fame IMO.

Yes, " some" did say that... as the offseason progressed, more people were predicting Eagles

WRONG. Many had us at least in contention for the division, especially with our WEAK "strength of schedule". Were you asleep??? I guess EVERY Vegas odds maker should be out of work according to you. Love to know where you get your "facts" because they are WRONG. So the only nonsense is your post is saying it's nonsense

Your just denying the advantage it is to make the opponent predictable and one sided.

Who's denying it? When did I deny it??? Fact remains if you get 2 EXTRA possessions PER GAME,it certainly makes it easier on the offense or is that fallacy also? And making teams 1 dimensional has ZERO to do with the fact you are given more scoring opportunities. You can make teams one dimensional,but if you don't take the ball away you aren't getting additional chances,so these are 2 different subjects

TDs over thirty yards in a game

yes ONE game,and I stated I was "glad to see it". YAC 10.1 YPC and we have TWO of those in the top 20. If they DON'T get those yards its a 4 yard pass yes??? Not 15-????

Not hard to be accurate on 4 yard passes???? I would think those are high percentage completions?

Doesn't show yardage so this proves nothing at all. Again 4 yard passes have a high percentage of completion. I'm happy we are converting them and moving the chains

Yep alot of uncertainty around Hurts to start the year

Not sure we're in a position to cut anyone? We can after the season.

LMAO that's EXACTLY what it does,please

Bird, I'm glad you laughed at this post. It shows your ignorance. Well done

I love YAC! Whole goal is to hit the receiver in stride…so he can run. He just had those four TDs over thirty yards in a game as well. Done it every way.

I love YAC's also, just let's not pretend it's Hurts dropping 25 yard dimes all game long ok??? Dink and dunk, but we're good at it,so until someone stops us,keep doing it. Difference is this year we are making those 3rd conversions we didn't last year

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.  

 

So Strength of Schedule means nothing. How many wins do you think the Eagles would have if they had Green Bay's schedule? They play the NFC East and the AFC East, which are the two toughest divisions? In contrast we play the AFC South and NFC North, two weakest divisions. Oh and we played a tough Pittsburgh Team (2-6) and Arizona (3-6), We also have No later this year. Strength Absolutely matters in wins vs losses. To ignore is just being Clueless.  The toughest games the Eagles have are within their own division. But I counter this with Division Games are ALWAYS tough. That is the only place you can argue where records do not matter. But All other games do.....
