I think Eagles vs. Giants may be more likely an Eagles loss than anyone may imagine.

The Giants aren't nearly as bad as their record indicates. And they have a player on offense who appears to be indefensible. I think you stand a chance in any game when you have a player like that.

I don't see the Commanders beating the Eagles, although it's a slim possibility.

I just get a little worried about teams playing the Eagles and having the same intensity they would in playing us. I just hope the Giants get up for that game like they did on the Sunday night game against us. It is the very last game of the year and the Giants may mail it in. I hope they play with some intensity and feel like they have something to play for. If they do then yes the can most definitely beat the Eagles.

You hope they do.

I'd rather the Eagles have to play them earlier in the year when they were still playing for something.

We have to win this game. We more than likely have to win out.

But the team deserves this after losing to a dreadful Washington Commanders team at home.

No, don't put words in my mouth. I think they will. If the giants lose I don't really care other than it would give the iggles another win. We control our own destiny..

I think you do care and you should seeing as it would help the Cowboys if the Giants beat the Eagles.

The loser of Cowboys-Eagles Sunday Night is going to have a hard time earning a wild card, too. This is basically an elimination game.

If Dallas loses, they are essentially two back in the division; and will have a 6-5 NFC record which puts them behind Seattle and Detroit for the wild card. And if Seattle wins the NFC West, the Cardinals already have 11 wins and the head to head over Dallas.

The Eagles would be in an even tougher spot. Their NFC record would drop to 5-5; and they lose head to head tiebreakers against both the Seahawks and Cardinals and would not be able to match Detroit's NFC record unless the Lions lose out.

Why? Wash beat us. Lol

That is because they plus us like it is their super bowl every year. Also, Haslett knows how to confuse Romo. Washington just seems like a dead team now. Players are quitting etc.

Yeah, this is technically not elimination game but I agree, loser of this game needs a miracle to make the playoffs. I really hope we beat Philly just to keep our hopes alive.

Even if Dallas wins, they still have work to do because beating Indy the following week at home will be a tall order.

If the Cowboys take care of their own business, the iggles last game won't matter. I stick with my original statement... I don't care about that game.

Yeah, agreed. It would still give us one more week of excitement though. I think our odds are very slim of winning the next 2. We are not good against teams above .500 and we have fallen apart the last 3 years straight at the end of the season. Also, we both know how Romo plays in big games likes these with the season on the line.

I agree... hopefully they play well enough to win... they always seem to save that man's job every year...
if memory serves me, I believe during their last SB year, there was talk of Coughlin being fired midseason.

Yep

Not sure where the Was stats coming from but they are 26th O at 19 ppg and 25th D giving up 27 ppg. They suck. They beat us because Garrett and Romo can't find a way to beat that blitz and the OL didn't help.

We have a better blocking OL now pass wise....I think. Romo and his receivers need to be on the same page. Romo needs to look at Beasley as much or more than Witten esp on blitzes. They need to PA and pass more because running at what amounts to a run blitz is.....stupid.

How are other teams playing the Skins? Look at it and repeat it.

You'll change that statement if the Cowboys drop 1 of these next 2 games.
