Dallas wins the day, but not necessarily the NFC East. The Cowboys still host Indianapolis and finish the season at Washington (which is never an easy game). Meanwhile, the Eagles play at Washington and then finish in the New Meadowlands against the Giants. While I would give Philadelphia the schedule advantage ( Colts > Giants), you just never know with these NFC East games. Philly and Big Blue have split the past two seasons, while the Commanders shocked the Cowboys at Jerry World earlier this year. I like the Cowboys on Sunday because they'll have had nine days to rest, and when these teams faced off last time, the 'Boys had played a Sunday night game on the East Coast a few days prior. Also, teams typically don't do so hot the week after they face the Seahawks. Call it being beasted. #DALvsPHI

A Seahawks hangover for the Eagles? Sure hope so.

Good pick. I'm with you this week.

Next week, I think our run game kills the Colts.

The week 17 game is just a matter of stamping out ticket to the playoffs. We'll get it done.

I don't understand the fear over the colts. Andrew Luck has made tons of errors early in games lately, and they have started slow. I'm not saying they aren't a good team, but they can be had.

One thing about Luck I've seen this year is he is one tough dude. The guy will get hit, sacrifice his body, and keep coming and coming at you. He's a stud.

Yea well our QB is tougher and studlier so Cowboys win.

I'm still disappointed in the way they played against the Eagles a couple of weeks ago. They were outplayed on the field and out coached on the sideline. Hopefully they'll show up this game. I have faith they will.

Colts score points, our defense gives them up. So does theirs, so could be a shoot out.

If we can take care of the Eagles on the road, we should take care of the Colts at home. [insert home crowd game haters remarks].
But it will be a hard fought game.
However if the Colts beat the Texans this weekend, they will clinch their division. Even though they still have HFA or a bye to play for, they may ease up a bit, or some players may. Doubtful, but one never knows.
