Next Week is for first place in the division

[Diehardblues]

It won’t seal the division for them, they’d have to lose another game while the cowboys win out but it’s a big game

Well , sweeping us they’d be up basically 3 games with 4 to go.

 

[Diehardblues]

It goes to common games before conference records. Which is why Philly needs to lose in Seattle to avoid going to conference record.

Yes, but I’m assuming they win out after losing to us much like assuming we’d win out.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

I'm a Cowboys fan first so obviously I'd love to win the division, and possibly get the bye. Path of least resistance is always best.

But the selfish clown in me is low key fantasizing about driving down to Atlanta and watching this DL tea bag Desmond Ridder.

 

[Tabascocat]

Yes, but I’m assuming they win out after losing to us much like assuming we’d win out.

Yea, I get that. Just saying Philly has to lose that game if it comes to identical records. Otherwise, they have the tiebreaker in conf games

Well , sweeping us they’d be up basically 3 games with 4 to go.

If he meant the eagles that’s correct….was assuming he meant the cowboys, hard to tell. But correct if eagles win it’s a wrap

 

[nightrain]

That dang AZ game. Really bad loss for the Cowboys that could derail the home field train.

 

[Diehardblues]

After losing today I look for Egirls to bounce back. They know with Whiners easy schedule they need to win out or SF gets top seed.

 

[Diehardblues]

So, if we are looking at 5th seed I think it serves our interest for Phil to get top seed over SF.

 

[silvernblu]

No. Eagles still hold the tiebreaker

Not in short term. But they control their own destiny still.

 

[Kevinicus]

Tie breakers are applied at the end of week 18. They are irrelevant at week 14.

If and when they control their own destiny...then THAT will have meaning.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

No. First tie breaker for the division is H2H. Since that would be a tie, it then goes to division w/l. We would be 4-1 in the division and they would be 3-1. We would be in first.

until they hammer the Giants in week 16

 

[darthseinfeld]

Actually he’s right, you’d be 4-1 in the division and Philly would be 3-1 because we have multiple division games left

Its one of those things where something is technically right.

The bigger take away from a Dallas win would be a momentum shift in the division with Philadelphia dropping two in a row. However that relevance could last all of one week too.

IMO a Dallas win makes me think this division doesnt get decided to week 18. Not to sound like I am knocking either team, but outside of a Philadelphia win next week, I dont think either team is good enough to get a tight grip on the division before week 17 or 18

 

[NFCBeasts]

This would be an excuse: There is now way we can win the division because their schedule is cupcake and our schedule is brutal.

This is an observation: Tall task with our brutal schedule and Philthys cupcake schedule.

We are going to beat Philly and hopefully split the two after that.

Eagles are going to lose their next two hopefully and i don’t know why everyone thinks they are not going to stumble one time their last three.
