There was no good matchup for the Eagles. The Rams have a good offensive line, the Eagles have no consistent pass rush and there’s no way the Eagles would’ve outscored the Rams or Cowboys indoors in a dome.

The only ideal matchup would’ve been the Cardinals and if they got Hopkins back, the Eagles would’ve been dogs in that too. 
 

But the Bucs is the most fun matchup because it’s Brady. And ultimately fun is all you can hope for right now. A good game.

Slay will matchup with Mike Evans and slow him down.  The problem will be trying to take away Gronkowski in the middle of the field

I think we have a even chance next week. The problem is if we win our reward is Lambeau. 

If we beat the Bucs than this season is an unmitigated success, considering everything we went through the past 12 months.

At that point, it's all icing on a deliciously baked cake.

As long as Dallass don't win the SB im fine with any other outcome.

Basically if the chargers or raiders win these are the matchups 

chiefs vs. steelers

bills vs. chargers/raiders

bengals vs. patriots 

eagles vs. bucs 

dallas vs. niners 

rams vs. cardinals 

i feel like the Dallas/niners is destined to be a primetime slot. 

Dallas will be Saturday night. Eagles Bucs will be Sunday night. Some AFC matchup on MNF

The question is Toney and #7 and 3rd or Smith.  Not Smith and #15.

Answer is still Smitty.

Agreed, a trade up to 10ish seems reasonable, especially if a guy Leal or Ojabo is there.

6 is just too rich for my blood unless it's for Aidan or Kayvon.

Yeah. i think moving into the top 6 would be a stretch. likely cost them more than they want to pay to move up that high. I think the area to watch is 10-14. Seems most reasonable in terms of what you have to pay and a team want to move back for an extra pick or two

Yeah i think Dallas/niners makes too much sense not to be a Saturday night. I could see chiefs/Steelers as the early Saturday game. If the nfl gets some luck a Monday night game would be great between herbert vs. Allen

My guess is:

Saturday

Eagles @ Bucs - 4PM 

Sunday

Niners @ Cowboys - 8 PM Sunday

Monday

Cardinals @ Rams

 

 

No way they make Brady play on a short week. 

I will become Hurts biggest fan if he beats Tom Brady and then refuses to shake his hand.

I see a lot of wins. 

The best game plan is still to pound the football, shorten the game, limit the amount of Brady possessions.  I like the Eagles OL vs the TB DL.  Suh is older, JPP is older, Vea is a monster but a slow one.  Get Hurts on the outside against their LB to open some holes.

If the Eagles fall behind 10 points early, it’ll be a loooong day 

DAL/SF is a lock for SNF.

Two massive fanbases, playoff history, and two big media markets.

I’m not so sure if there’s a DT sitting at 10-12 they wouldn’t try to jump up to get him.  

we are also 3.5 months away from the draft and a combine. Things change in draft orders. Guys move up and guys move down. 

I really like Travon Walker, can play across the entire d-line. I want an end plus Walker in round 1.

He's a troll.  The sooner everyone figures that out, the sooner I can stop seeing his nonsense.

I think they are hurt. Or had been. I remember hearing someone say no Evans. And Gronk isn't what he used to be. 

Evans played today.  Had 2 TDs I think.

They lost AB and Godwin.

Colts fans are on level 12 right now 😂

 

I miss Faith Hill.

Dickerson/Vea is going to be a decisive match-up. If Landon can deal with him, we have a shot.
