Hopefully this means the NFL won't put the Eagles Cowboys game on SNF.

If GB wins, it's likely a 1PM game, which is fine by me. The NFL likes to put all games with meaning on at 4, or in primetime.

Most scenarios have us facing the Bucs.

They look vulnerable with all their injures, but I do not want to face the GOAT.

Not caring about Dallas in week 18 is what is wrong with the NFL and this world today. People are soft and scared. 

I never agree with sitting players. Play to win the game, esp against Dallas in Philly. What the hell is wrong with you people? Your not true Eagles fans if you dont care about beating Dallas. 

So play your starters in a meaningless game for both teams? When you are probably going to play them  again next week for reals. And risk losing a key player for what? Bragging rights? They aren't going to be playing starters either. Yay, we beat their backups! It's not being soft, it's being smart. Id rather win a playoff game then best Dallas in a meaningless scrimmage.

TO has had his own issues, but Brown is on a different level of nutcase.

TO was a cancer, Brown is just plain crazy.

49ers win.  Dallas loses.   Miami loses.  Indy loses. 

Vikings lose, Eagles clinch playoff birth.... that's the upside. 

 

 

Now, the downside... If the Vikings manage to win, and win again next week, the Eagles need to win against Dallas to clinch.

I love that you guys think there are better options just falling off trees. Could they go for a Pickett or Ridder? Sure. But what are the odds that they’re significantly better? Face it. Hurts is the starter in 2022, and we will see what we can get in the much better QB class of 2023. 

 

Howie can draft someone or get someone in FA if they want. They aren't locked to Hurts

Doesn't take much to be significantly better passer than Hurts

Would be hilarious if they do an open competition and Minshew ends up the starter. Would you accept that or throw a tantrum?

yup.  Completely different level.  TO's issues were narcissism.  Brown's are likely brain damage... CTE... or something similar.  He's in need of help.  TO was just an ego maniac.

If you'd rather beat Dallas in a meaningless game for both sides then put yourself in the best position to win a actual playoff game then Dallas lives rent free in your head.

Dallas will be resting starters.  Key subtext of them losing today.

Eagles won.

The rest of the NFCE lost.

Both other draft picks improved.

Come on Green Bay!

I love T.O. I don’t care

Possible they could play starters for a half.

Go Pack go! 

I think our defense will get absolutely bent over in the playoffs, but since we're here we might as well make it, yeah?

If you had told me at the start of the season that we could clinch a playoff spot with 1 week still left...

Gotta give Siri his flowers.

Nope.  Need to lament the five slots in draft position we could have picked up by losing.

I’m good with open comp…I don’t mind Minshew, he’s fierier than Garcia even.  Hell, I’d be good with them grabbing Pickett late in the first or early second. He won my heart with that fake slide. I’m just saying, neither Minshew or a Pickett or a Ridder are a guarantee to be that much better than Hurts.

Why?   They can still get the 2 seed from what I am seeing...  Long shot, but if Arizona loses and TB loses, a win for Dallas makes them the 2 seed... which means a home game in round 2.    That should mean something... maybe not though.

I mean we are going to have a winning record. Even that shocks me. 

Might be Minshew Mania for Dallas week.
