Bills vs Eagles

[jazzcat22]

They were a winning team when they started play, so I believe yes it does.

So the Jets were 1-0 when we beat them. Yet many on here says it doesn’t count. Explain that.

 

[tyke1doe]

To a wide open guy.... Throw it high.... Ya ok.

But guys were around him.

 

[SlimBig]

Lol hurts had 200 yards passing

5 TDs, and the winning TD.
doesn't matter than it's not 350 yds passing.

 

[StarOfGlory]

Tie goes to them though which means Cowboys have to win out and then hope the Seahawks can also beat them because I think we can agree the Giants and Cardinals are not about to.

The Cardinals beat us, they can beat the Eagles.

 

[bigE79]

So why does it count for the Eagles but not for the Cowboys?

It definitely should count for us,but unfortunately,if I remember correctly the last team we beat with a winning record was the jets,they were1-0

 

[mahoneybill]

Don’t forget the dropped TD in the 1Q too.

Philthy still won. But eventually this stuff catches up and has a way of eventually evening out. Penalties, drops, etc. Will it be this season?? Next?? We shall see.

Niners will be a big challenge for them in season or playoffs. Their quarterback less NFC championship will be very different if it’s a rematch

 

[StarOfGlory]

Yes and this eagle team reminds me of last seasons Vikings team. Barely scraping by week after week until it caught up to them

How can anybody say Philadelphia is clutch and they just have that magic and they are the best team in football? When they lost to the Zach wilson jets, beat Dallas bc the TE was an inch shy of a TD, dak runs one inch OOBs on the 2 pt play, a chiefs WR drops a game winning TD pass right in his hands, and all the things that kept them in the game tonight happened?

Philadelphia did not cause ANY of those things to happen. The other teams lost those games despite ANYTHING that Philadelphia did

I really don't think people are understanding something here: the Eagles don't beat themselves, unlike almost every team they played this year. They had a stinker against the Jets, it happens. Hell, look who we lost to.

 

[Adreme]

The Cardinals beat us, they can beat the Eagles.

Hypothetically anyone can beat anyone but in practice it isn’t going to happen.

Don't ruin the rest of my evening. Let me have my hopes and dreams for at least tonight.

 

[mahoneybill]

Hurts run and deep ball scramble ability and their run game keeps makes the hard to defend . Their D is very beatable

I explained it very clearly. I’m not sure how you guys feel otherwise but that is my interpretation of the stat. If they were 1-0 when you played them then they were a winning team.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

But guys were around him.

No they weren't. He was wide open, the pass was high.

 

[Phamous]

If that even. Philly can lose the next two and then win out and still take the division. Todays game was massive for the cowboys division odds.

Likely we are back in a situation similar to last season where the last month of the season is mostly meaningless from a standpoint of playoff seeding.

Yep, I think the division is pretty much a wrap after today. We are playing for a wildcard spot from here on out

I would say only if that team had a winning record at the end of the season should it count

 

[McMicah]

I just dont understand how people think the Eagles are amazing. Hurts had a 7.0 passer rating in the 1st half and the penalty ratio against the Bills was literally 10:1. Yes, they find ways to stick around but it’s because the other team drops a pass or steps out on a 2 pt conversion or 3 fumbles that they get back or terrible no calls. I’ve just never ever seen a team consistently game by game get as many breaks and mystery penalties in their favor as the Eagles have this year. Outside of the Jets game it has happened an insane amount of times

Would absolutely suck. I mean, suck terribly IF we are tied, both head to head and divisional record, and instead of it coming down to point differential, it would come down to NFC record? That would blow.

I would rather they beat SF, or just not go "all out" to beat them if it means we're the #5 seed regardless.

Terrible. Talk about some bad juju.

Sad fact is that no team that went 10-1 that I have ever heard of did not win their division. Maybe one did sometime but this pretty much means we are playing for a wild card

But TBH, I don't know that Dallas would win BOTH road games @ Buffalo and @Miami anyway. I have a feeling there's an L in there somewhere.

Gotta shoot for the 2007 analog and basically try to do what the Giants did in that post season. No excuses...gotta start winning on the road in the playoffs.

Sucks because we're so good at home these days. Imagine if we had HFA this year like we did in 2016. I just couldn't see us losing, not even to SF at home.

Right. I hate the Eagles more than anything, but I also can respect what they do. They force the other team to play a flawless game and most can’t.

And in the Ravens/Chargers game another catch then two feet down followed by an immediate fumble was ruled a FUMBLE. Very similar to AJ Brown "incomplete pass" but ruled a fumble in another game.
