Uhh, no. He’s basically a rookie, not "technically”. 

I should know better by now.

What does this game do for the Tom Brady brand?

Such a weird NFL week. Probably going to be a weird next two days too.

Dallas will be the #2 seed if the Bucs lose.

Game 17 vs the Eagles is going to mean something for them seed-wise. They likely won't rest their starters. Will have all kinds of playoff implications for both teams.

They’re only the #2 seed because there’s a 3-way tie with TB and ARI.  They already lost to TB, and if they lose to ARI in a couple of weeks they’ll be frozen out — and resting starters

There was some really bad QB play today.

So you’re saying if Hurts starts it’s status quo? 

Outside of Green Bay, I'm not sure the league has ever been more wide open. Hottest team in December/January will win it all and it could be a number of teams.

Odd season.  Eagles kick the ish out of the Saints, Saints shut out the Bucs, Bucs kick the ish out of the Eagles.  Makes sense.  

Lions murder the Cards

Nothing.

unlikely, but we need a big bears win tonight

One of the biggest disappointments so far is how the Dolphins have somehow turned it around.  I thought that pick would be a top 5 pick but they are churning out wins.

So, somehow you are confused as to what it means to be an Eagles fan?  It means everything we gat involved in turns to crap. (Except for that 1 glorious day)

It must have slipped my mind earlier in the season when they were projected to have 3 top 10 picks and I wanted to believe.

Funny, or sad though, I was trying to explain to my nephew this weekend that if there's ever a streak, crazy stat or some sort of record to be broken, it probably happens to the Eagles.  

It seems that often there are "never has this happened" or "longest kick ever" moments against the Eagles.  The only one that has yet to be broken seems to be the Jets never beating them.  Nothing to really be proud of.  Seems to me that in my lifetime it started with Don Shula getting his 300th win at the Vet, hit a highpoint with TB beating them at the Vet in the NFCCG then there was the longest FG ever to lose to TB and so on.  I know there are a lot more that we've witnessed as Eagles fans.

Remember when people were killing Carson Wentz for playing poorly? Turns out even Tom Brady sucks when he has absolute trash at the skill positions. Who woulda thunk it?

Don't mind him, it's still disappointing. They started what, 1-7? It was perfectly normal to expect a top 5 pick at that point, they hadn't shown any signs of an impending 6 game winning streak. Such is life though. Maybe they'll crater these last 3, Colts too hopefully.

They were a 10-6 team last year and got to the portion of their schedule where their opponents were the Jets, HOU, CAR, and NYG.  The only quality win they’ve gotten was beating BAL.  That was never going to be a top 10 pick.

Now they finish @ NO, @TEN, and NE.  They’re not going to stay hot much longer.

Nothing is that disappointing my friend. Seems I should place money on Dolphins/Colts to make the playoffs....seems too likely

December 24th, 1978- first time I get to see an Eagles playoff game

January 11th, 1981- a day belonging to Wilbert Montgomery

And so many more. 

The sad, defeated Eagle fan that thinks the Eagle Christmas stocking is always full if coal just has to take a little time to remember the joyous moments.

KC has looked good recently.  They have really improved on defense.   They are coming off 2 big wins in their division.  I think after that the AFC is a crap shoot. The Chargers, Bills and NE are all about the same level.  I think the Colts look like a playoff team but for the QB.  The Ravens play well enough to beat any team including themselves. The Titans are a good team with a great defensive line.   

The NFC is open.  I think GB has the advantage of playing in a bad division and they seem likely to be the 1 seed given their remaining schedule. They play the Browns, Vikings and Lions.  I don't think that's as easy as Tampa's but they should easily win 2 out of 3.   The Cowboys have not looked good on offense since Dak was injured again.  Maybe that changes.  Certainly they have the talent on offense and their defense has looked improved.  They have a fairly easy remaining schedule except for the game against the Cardinals. They just lost to the Lions and I think that was a trap game type loss.  The Rams had a big win against the Cardinals last week.  They certainly could string together a couple more wins as they play the Seahawks then the Vikings.  Tampa looked awful last night but Brady always looks bad against the Saints.  Their remaining schedule is a joke.  They play the Jets and Panthers twice.   

I am predicting the 3--1st rd picks to be:

10-11 Dolphins finish 7-10

14-15 Eagles Finish 8-9

24-25  Colts Finish 11-6 in the playoffs and 1 and done or 2 and done.
