Not so sure we'll win a wild card game.

Not with these linebackers core.

I predicted these 2 straight losses on the road, so I may as well script the rest of this out for us. Consider it therapeutic.

* Win AT HOME against Detroit. Close win. Everyone feels better because Detroit's a playoff team. But. It's. A. Home. Game. Doesn't move the needle as far as I'm concerned.

* Win in Maryland against the hapless Commanders, resting a ton of players. Again, it doesn't matter. Eagles win the division.

* WIN ON THE ROAD AGAINST A HAPLESS NFC SOUTH TEAM IN THE WC PLAYOFF ROUND. LET'S GOOOO! WE'RE BACK BABY! Um, yeah, no we're not. See @ Tampa Bay last year. What happened after that? Oh yeah..

* LOSE HANDILY on the road in the divisional round vs. the 49ers. What on earth makes us think the result would be any different this year, especially since we can't rely on the OL and the running game in the red zone?

Yeah, I've seen this script before folks. Someone please convince me otherwise, because I want to believe..

I suspect that they will get some holding calls in their favor next week and they will win at home. I think it is possible that the Eagles will lose a game to the Giants and the division will go down to the last game of the season.

They lost the Triplets ROH game and I was there to experience it. I don't put anything past this team anymore.

Good point lol… and under Parcells tenure as well.

BrassCowboy · Dec 24, 2023

i actually see it a little worse off than that, but still the same. They will beat detroit at home, then lose to commanders on the road (cuz hey its meaningless game right?). then first playoff game at home against Bucs I believe we lose. Have you been watching the bucs lately? but yeah if they happen to beat the bucs, they definitely lose the first away game they play in playoffs.

Awesome
Man, I’m so glad you told me the rest of the season !!!
Now I can start watching something else

Thank you a thousand times !!! You are da best
To think I was going to waste my time watching them - when you already know the results !!! Woo hoo

Pretending doesn’t work. Every Cowboy fan knows this is exactly what’s going to happen including you. The OP is spot on. I will casually watch and hope for the 1% miracle but I’m not going to be disappointed when it doesn’t happen I fully expect the same thing this team has done the last three years.

Beat the breaks off bad teams lose to decent ones

I said two weeks ago the post season would be exactly like last year. Win in TB then lose in SF (probably) or PHIL.

CrownCowboy · Dec 24, 2023

I don’t know how the rest of the regular season will go but I do know one thing. This team isn’t going to win multiple games on the road in the playoffs.

Everybody knows it including the players.

I hate to like this post, but I've said the same. The writing is on the wall. I'll hope against hope it goes differently, but it feels too familiar.

Redsfan_83 · Dec 24, 2023

Aren't we in line to play Tampa right now? Anybody wanna see Mike Evans and company in the 1st round on the road? Pretty fair bit that Tyron and Zach have worn down over the year, and in no way can be healthy come the playoffs. It's a good thing we have planned for this day though

Whose pretending ?
You do you bud !!
I just laugh at the fans who almost wish for failure to say - told ya so
It’s all good - being a fan for 50+ years I don’t just say oh well it’s over, until it’s over - I also don’t get that emotional one way or another - it’s entertainment - I’ll always be a fan until I die - I’ll root for the wins until no more games left - life’s too short not to enjoy the moments

This has been the inevitable path since the Arizona loss.

beware_d-ware · Dec 24, 2023

No matter what happens, there is a 49ers shaped wall blocking us from getting out of the NFC. They look like the team of destiny this year... 2nd ranked offense by PPG, 2nd ranked defense by PPG, and they're healthy, focused, and pissed.

Don't be dumb, this team is a worthless joke and they are crashing just like every year we have had hope and expectations of something different.

Nothing is different, it's the same, it's always the same

We’ll go on a great run in the playoffs and win the Super Bowl like the Wild Card 10-6 Packers did under McCarthy

Then you wake up and it’s ground hog day for the 28 year!
