I don't really think it matters. Whether the Eagles have a chance at the playoffs or not, you can bet they are going to do everything in their power to make sure Dallas doesn't go either. It is a hated division rival. They aren't just going to lay down and say, "Go ahead Dallas, go to the playoffs and enjoy".

You can bet the Eagles wants to beat Dallas no matter what the circumstances are.

I agree. I expect Philly to give it their best. I will say if Dallas can jump on top of them early it will be harder for Philly to keep themselves in the game mentally.

I am listening to 610 WIP in Philadelphia and they claim that the NFL moved the game to 4:15 EST to help the Cowboys get into the Playoffs.

The only evidence they have is that the game didn't need to be moved :rolleyes: .


I guess that makes sense if you're a bitter Philly mook with nothing better to whine about during slow days of Christmas

They were winning that game but called off the dogs in the 4th quarter to keep Dallas from having a shot at the playoffs. Reid had the biggest smile on his fat face.

Doc Walker and the rest of the 980 crew in Washington said the same thing yesterday.

I don't get it. Players still have to suit up and play the game. I don't consider it to be that much of an advantage.

I do however agree that what is good for the Cowboys is good for the NFL. Economic times are tough right now, and the NFL needs high profile teams to succeed.

I don't think the rest of the world would give a crap about a Cardinals vs. Ravens Superbowl, for example. However, Steelers vs. Cowboys would garner all sorts of worldwide attention, and help sell ad space that the NFL needs to sell for future Superbowls. Rumor has it that the NFL is really struggling with selling ad space.

this is what it comes down to they're not helping us Fox want ratings for their late game Dallas = rating = game moved, everyone happy except philly but who cares about them anyways.
They're not trying to help us they just want rating

I swear people on this board don't understand human psychology. If they were already out after this weekend, then sure they could give it all they had. If they find out 10 minutes before kickoff they are out regardless, it is human nature to slack off.

I though they were all big East Coast blue-collar tough guy bullies. So why do they whine so much?

Cuz all that "East coast blue-collar tough guy bully" stuff is just and act. It's all talk. They're all a bunch of pansies.

If they are trying to help, they are doing a helluva bad job of it. I really don't want to play an Eagles team that is determined to keep us out of the playoffs. Yeesh.

lol.

610 wip in philly needs be more concerned with why THeir quarterback hasnt been able to take his team to the playoffs since 2004, you know around the time the rest of the nfc east started to have equal talent.
