Do we beat the Eagles or collapse?

[Alexander]

It is just like how we do business to beat the Eagles.

 

[Sarge]

I’ll be very curious to see how we play them. They are difficult to run on but have one of the worst pass defenses in the league......I’ll keep my thoughts to myself.

 

[Diehardblues]

History tells us that with the lone exception in 2015 when Romo went down for season Garrett has us fighting until the final week.

 

[Ring6]

yes...cause they've been such a big help the last three weeks..

That’s what I’m saying ... odds are the fools screw it up in our favor... more likely than us winning on execution and play calling

 

[Diehardblues]

Doesn't have to be only those two options. The way Philly is playing, even if they win they aren't going to keep the Division lead out of reach for very long.

Right..

3-4 doesn’t knock out either team. NFC Least is worse division in conference. 9-10 wins takes division with brutal schedules coming up.

 

[Diehardblues]

I don't think we're at that point yet. We could lose to the Eagles, falling to 3-4 and still be viable for a few weeks.

We come back after the bye with Giants and then might be able to get by the Vikings and Lions (although those are toss-ups at best). If that happens, we're 6-4 going into games against the Patriots, Bills and Bears.

At this point, I think we're still an 8-8 team and might not be eliminated from the playoff race until our December game against the Eagles.

That’s a realistic outlook. 9 wins could take the NFC Least, worse division this year in conference.

we beat the eagles and were super bowl bound baby!! a few weeks later, season is over. "when we going to fire Garrett".

 

[Asklesko]

Probably collapse. Lots of injuries, a ton of malaise and Garrett-fatigue, and Garrett is still HC.

 

[buybuydandavis]

However, no tackles (their d line is elite), no Cooper (who else gets deep? They blanket Gallup)

After Cooper and Gallup, Smith is probably our best deep threat. Maybe they keep him active this week.

Smith is right up there with Cooper, far ahead of the rest of the other WRs in terms of QB rating when thrown to.

Garrett knows how to step it up when he's on the hot seat so we'll win this one

 

[J_Allen]

Hopefully we collapse. The sooner we can get rid of Garrett and start something new the better.

 

[StarBoyz83]

They've looked better than Dallas so far. I have no idea what will happen this game tbh.

 

[Redline360]

I have a feeling the defense is finally going to play like they did last year besides the dreaded rams game. Pretty sure they recognize this is a make or break game for them.

If not there better be some big changes during the bye week.

There is no question the Eagles game is a defining game in the season. You either bounce back strong and right the ship or we sink completely.

I personally have zero faith in the coaching staff and honestly I believe we will lose. I pray that I'm wrong. But if we lose maybe Jerry might pull the trigger on his pet cat.

It doesn’t matter if we win the game.

We will win this game, and lose in Philly. I don't think it's a defining game because both teams are going to lose plenty of games this year, and I don't see Washington and Giants being good enough to right their ships. It's a 2 dog race.

 

[Xeven]

I’m betting on the Eagles. Garret lost the team.

I can guarantee this. This team will fight with its back against the wall. In spite of everything.

 

[ShortRound]

I can’t believe we waited all preseason for such a soft team
