Uscg-green Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Running the ball/clock management and good D is playoff football success formula. We may pull an upset or two. We will be a tough out I think. We always play GB tough. Getting farther than Dallass would give me something over my wife who hasn't shut up about her "boys" all year lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skitoe Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Our ability to run and control the clock will put us in a position against any team, but I don't think our defense I talented enough against the elite qbs you'll face in the playoffs. That being said, we do have some playmaker on defense so just gotta get hot at the right time 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they make the playoffs hope Hurts isn't the QB so they have a shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspiritfall Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 God I hope Dallas chokes and loses their first game... Normally id feel pretty confident they are quick outs but this year practically every team is hit or miss... It doesn't feel like there is any stand out teams... Like every year there's around 3 or 4 teams who just look like a lock to go to the Super Bowl and this year it's like anyone can beat anyone... Personally I think football blows this year and not because of the Eagles record, even when we've had terrible years I still enjoyed football overall... Football is becoming less and less interesting to me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You married a Cowboys fan? Oh dear oh dear 😉! Look I don't think anyone is going to want to face this team. Like you say they have a decent D who on their day can play very well and they have a run game that allows them to manage the clock. I don't have any expectations for this team at this point but I think teams will want to avoid them in the play offs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merry Christmas to you both. You as well. We live in Delaware. You should see people stare at us at the grocery store on Sunday mornings in our jerseys. By the way, always meant to ask.

But when we were kids it was all skins all the time. Both our families love them. I wanted to rebel and so did she. We just went opposite ways lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portyansky Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I'm not worried about our O. The D is the biggest question mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly will not be an easy task if the make the playoffs. All games would be road games and this defense has been notably poor against decent to great quarterbacks. I don’t think it will be a blowout though as long as the Eagles stick to the run, because they can truly run on any team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Shiznit Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Our O-Line is the great equalizer, they have proven over and over again they can dominate the opposing front 7 at will. As long as we lean into that and don't go pass happy, we have a shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vileborg Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Likely Seeding on NFC side vs Run (Yards per Carry)(Saints 2nd still, Eagles 3rd) 1. Green Bay - 24th 2. Dallas - 25th 3. Tamp Bay - 12th 4. Arizona - 27th 5. Rams - 4th 6. 49ers - 13th Currently, we would face Dallas, Green Bay and then likely Tampa Bay in the NFC title Game.

Yep. But hot or not, they just can't fall behind more than a score (maybe 10) or they are doomed. We just aren't passing our way back into a game YET. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike030270 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I don't think we have the defense for a playoff run. I think Ravens are the most recent run first team in the playoffs and they made it to the divisional but struggled big time on offense and was eliminated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
