Hopefully the dirty birds don't pull off a miracle.
As you know I have hate/fear the Eagles over the years because of where I live. They are talking of running the table and Giants and Cowboys collasping, like in 2008. Hey, I admit, it can happen. But I want to say this is not 2008. But here may be a likely scenario:
Eagles go 2-1, losing to Jets, beating us and Redksins (7-9)
Giants go 2-1, beating Washington and the Jets, losing to us (9-7)
Cowboys go 2-1, beating Bucs, beating to Philly, beating Giants (9-7)
Who wins the divison?
Tiebreakers:
head to head: 1-1, next:
divison record: same, 3-3, next
:
record in common games: Right now is tied at 5-2 (common teams are Rams, Cards, Seattle, Patriots, 49ers, Bills, Dolphins)...but there is one final team..the J-E-T-S. That is 8 common opponents. If the Giants win that game, in my scenario - they capture the divison which would make the season finale meaningless, right?
So if it ain't 3-0, it ain't no go!
