I don’t recall the Eagles struggling to beat the Vikings. It was a blowout early and they took the foot off the gas…still won by 17 points. On which planet is that a struggle?

Besides, I would hope you are smart enough to realize that you can’t simply look at common opponent games. It’s never worked that way. Gambling would be much easier if it did. NFL teams don’t bring their A-games every single week, and it’s not always who you play but when you play them.

yea I think the Vikings game was when the Eagles hype train left the station

You will find out come December 24th. Get ready for an *** whooping on national television. No excuses afterwards.

I dont it will be a blow out either way, but I’ve sort of expected that game to be a loss for the Eagles. It’s the Cowboys SB and they will be hyped up for that game more than any other. It likely won’t lead to them winning the division, however. Cowboys are not winning out

well I agree, but at least we now know that we CAN have games like the one against Minnesota, which was a romp from start to finish.


we just need to make that the rule and not the exception.

if we could do that, I would put odds on us being the best team.

Come on, it’s not our Super Bowl… that’s just laughable.
It’s your 3rd road game in a row on a short week….I like our chances.

If we have to go to Philly in Jan though I don’t like our chances.

They are clearly #1 now.
They are likely to still be #1 after our game regardless of outcome. I’m focused on Dallas and how they do in the playoffs.

Kind of Ike the Mcnabb air guitar year.

hurts is the anti mcnabb…Hurts just oozes intelligent leadership…mcnabb not so much.

Sort of a knock on Philly’s history as a whole, but if hurts wins Sunday… he’s the highest winning % if any QB in eagles history, minimum 30 starts

There are many computer rankings sites that take a lot of the emotion out of it. I totally get the criticism from the people who are about to say this and that about computer rankings systems. I get it, they are flawed. Above is a site that aggregates many of them and puts out an average. The Eagles come out 4th. This isn't some juggernaut team. When I watch them, I certainly don't get some dynasty type vibe. Its a good, balanced team.

Who is currently #1?

Dallas

I'm not buying it. We almost had them with backup Rush.
But will leave it at that, and wait how it plays out.

Doesn't matter who looks like what. They play and we find out who comes out on top.

I have a feeling we are going to get two more shots at the Eagles, once on Christmas Eve and another in the playoffs.
