The Iggles really got lucky and had the Red Sea just part for them this year didn't they? Who knew that the Rams were going to completely fall apart and not only not defend their crown in the Super Bowl again, but not even make the playoffs? Rodger's team not being a playoff team was surprising too. Brady's team limped in, but his had no business even being in the playoffs and it showed. Cardinals and K- Murray fell apart.Can't believe that runt Hurts is just waltzing into a Super Bowl.
Iggles got a first round bye. A 2nd round matchup with the Giants, a team nobody expected to be anywhere near the playoffs this year, and then in the NFC Championship game the Niners on their 3rd string QB who got hurt and couldn't throw the ball. The NFC was wide open this year and not the tough conference to navigate in the playoffs that it usually is.
I can't help but think bout the JAX and GB games that the Cowboys had won but couldn't close the deal in. They win those 2 games, they would have been the 1 seed and would have had that cushy 2nd round Giants matchup and then face probably the Iggles at home in the 3rd round. That would have been very interesting- I liked how they matched up against the Iggles better than with the Niners. I wanted to play them a 3rd time this year. We rolled them once and if not for Rush's 3 picks, actually had a chance to beat them with a backup QB. They are beatable, just had the easiest ride through the NFC I think Ive ever seen a team have. Could have been the Cowboys, oh well.
