Eagles Don't Win Games. They Survive Games

[Vanilla2]

As I said last week. Philly doesn’t make mistakes. The same crucial ones we made at the end when we played them, they avoid. They can be beat, but it will take the others team best game. They just plod along and avoid making mistakes and eventually come back.

Or when they do the ball bounces their way. Been lucky with that all season. Makes them even harder to beat

The Eagles can eat a bag.

Maybe the Eagles are just bored. They know they are better than any other team in the league and only turn it on when they have to. Is it coincidence that they need a score and they march down the field and get it? To beat the Eagles a team needs to stop that offense when they Eagles need a score to tie or win or score on them with no time remaining for them to make a comeback. So far only the Jets have been able to manage that. Dallas could have done it but when they got close the fell apart.

When they get going, no one seems to be able to stop them. The Tush Push play is like a symbol of who they are. When they get it in gear they can shove anyone else out of the way with ease.

This could be their year to win it all.

Lol! They'd rather be lucky than good. They have plenty of wholes

They do enough to win games. The Jets game was the one Hurts injured his knee in otherwise, they are likely undefeated. The goal of the regular season is to make the playoffs with the best seed possible………… not wipe the floor with the leagues doormats and run up stats that give a false sense of invincibility.

It also helps when most of your formidable opponents have to come to your house and play. (Dolphins, Boys, 9ers, Bills)

They get some help, but a win is a win.

I would say it is alot of luck. You need that to win sometimes. I have never seen in my many years of watching football a team as lucky as the Eagles. Penalties are not called against them, other teams players seem to drop critical easy passes that would have put a stake through those Vampires. Also, you have to give it up for Hurts, he did what Dak has not done, score on the last drive to win games. If hurts was the QB on that last drive in Philly, they would have won. Hurts is clutch this year. We were on the six yard line and did not score. That would never happen to Philly. Teams that play Philly cannot settle for field goals or go conservative like the Andy Reid punt from the Philly 39, or Buffalo settling for a field goal in overtime. You have to be agressive against them. They can be beat, but right now, they are winning. And that is all that matters in scheme of things.

A catch and fumble ruled incomplete. Most of us KNOW the call had that been Buffalo’s WR…

 

[charron]

When I look at teams standings I see 3 columns. Winning, Losing, Tie. Whatever the eagles are doing continues to pile up numbers in the winning column. Call it whatever you want, but reality says they are winning games. They are beatable on paper but apparently that is harder to do on the field. Cowboys will beat them in a few weeks but 1st need to take care of seattle.

Eagles find a way to win
Dallas finds a way to lose.

With help from the refs. All season, every week it seems.

It's a champion spirit. Rocky goes the distance with Apollo.
"Man, I won but I didn't beat him!"

 

[CowboyFrog]

One-score luck is one-score luck is one-score luck.

It will turn eventually, just a question of whether it's this year or not.

You can only get lucky from opponents dropping TD passes for so long.

Win Survive.. whatever works. I'm hoping the eagles are like the 2007 Dallas Cowboys and we're the Giants of that year.

I'm telling you they kinda remind me of the 2022 Vikings, out gained almost a -point diference and still win. It didn't carry over in the playoffs.

 

[quickccc]

If we can survive games by winning it .. what would work cool with me too.

 

[mooseman]

For the last 2 years , there schedule seems to be very forgiving.
I thought the better your record the previousseason, the harder your schedule is supposed to be ?

 

[Hardline]

I love seeing all of you trying to qualify the Eagles success. They are a damn good team.

 

[MRV52]

Luck will run out don't be surprised if they make an exit early in the Playoffs. They can't sustain luck for the entire year, and sooner or later they will pay for being really an average team. Secondary is crap and not a Super bowl contender whatsoever.

Vikings of 2022

Eh, they're way better than that.

But one-score regression is real.

They make plenty of mistakes, they just don’t get penalized for them
