If the Cowboys beat the Packers and Commanders and the Eagles beat the Vikings the Eagles can treat the game against the Bears like a Preseason game because win or lose they would have to beat Dallas in week 17 for the Division.

So basically they can sit back and see what Dallas does against the Commanders at 1 pm and then just rest their starters for the week 17 showdown. While Dallas on the other hand have to play their starters in the cold in D.C. to force a elimination game.

Just seems like an advantage for the Eagles IMO. What if Dez or Romo gets hurt in that Washington game? While the Eagles keep Shady McCoy and Desean Jackson out of harms way. The Nfl should've just left the times like they were now the Eagles get the benefit of knowing how to play their guys well before that Sunday Night game.

What if the hotel that the players are staying at the night before the eagles game the hotel explodes from faulty gas pipes?

When you piss way games like Detriot, don't start crying about the schedule now

Tough luck, should have sacked up and won some of those early games

But....but those weren't important games then since it wasn't a must-win or in the division.

There are only 16 games, each one is as important as the next, no matter when they occur in the season.

Man, this thread is a monument to the fetal position.

Rest their players, or don't rest their players, we have to beat the Eagles in week 17. In order to do that, we want to win the two winnable games between now and then. There's really no point in declaring any games lost until, you know, they're actually played. We're very likely to win one or both of the GB and the WAS games. The PHI game is the one we need to be most concerned about.

The problem is when you play a team that has 6 starters sitting out due to injury, starting 2 rookies on their offensive line, and have their backup QB in the game....................and they score on every single possession.

Hard to take these "we are going to win out" scenarios for real.

I didn't think we'd win out, but it was the GB and the PHI games I was most worried about. But I don't see how anybody could watch that CHI offense and come away thinking that passing game is anything but excellent right now. Protection wise, their skill position players, and their backup QB. It's as good as their defense was bad. These are the teams that beat us.

That said, I don't think Cutler gets his job back in CHI. And I don't think they pick up his option for next season. There's no way I take McCown out of the lineup the way he's playing and the way his teammates seem to respond to him right now. Matt Flynn is not playing that way, and Kirk Cousins doesn't have those weapons.

Hmmm.. This must be one of those "must win" games.

Wait? Wasn't that two weeks ago? Or? A week ago? Last month? HUH...?

And...

Playoffs? Playoffs? :)

Man, some of you are just downright plain stubborn. LOL.. Or, just like your heart being ripped out by this team over, and over again...
