Looking at the rest of Philly's schedule there aren't a whole lot of decent teams in there. I could see Philly getting a 1st round bye and then exiting after their first game. I don't think they are nearly as good as advertised.
Christmas Eve, They are on the road, on a short week… And this will be the third game in a row that they are on the road. These all point to a happy Christmas in Dallas.

The Texans are really really BAD!!! I don't see them winning at all. Unless the egals forfeit the game, there is absolutely no chance of Houston winning!!! But, it's a nice dream!! :D

Young Lady you know this is the NFL. There aint no gimmes in this league. I do like how the league managed to give them the bye week before they have to play on Thursday night.. That is just garbage.. Every team has to play at least one game on short rest.. except the Eagles.. Good lord..

Oh, I know "any given Sunday....or Thursday". But, the Texans are pitiful. It would give me no greater pleasure than to see the egals lose to the worst team in the NFL!! :p

I just looked and realized that the Eagles bye week was last week not this week.. so my rant on the bye before the Thursday game was off base.. But if they get screwed later in the season.. All the better..

I heard Parsons went to Philly last night to watch phillies beat Houston, and is pulling for the Phillies.

This guy seems to care about as much about Dallas as my cat does.

Oh it's ridiculous the way some of the media is slathering love all over them. I was watching Good Morning Football on Monday morning and they were asked about who had the most impressive win over the weekend, and here comes Peter Schrager saying it was the Eagles beating the Steelers, because the Steelers were hungry for a win. LOL! Hilarious. So according to the media, when the Eagles play a 2-5 team, they did great because that 2-5 team was supposed to be "hungry and tough" and it was an "impressive win". When Dallas plays a 2-5 team, it's "just a lowly 2-5 team". lol Goalposts always being moved. Dallas just battled against a great running team and a good defense in Chicago..........apparently not impressive.

Schrager is annoying. I would almost rather listen to Sharpe, Bayless, or SAS. The only reason to tune into that show is to look at Kay Adams.

She is sneaky hot aint she!?!? But not as hot as the little Italian sistah that was there before her.. Erin Coscarelli (sp?) I think was her name. But we're not supposed to notice that kinda stuff.. Apparently the female members don't like it.. so I will go ahead and apologize on behalf of both of us for noticing beautiful women..

Dak didn’t play. He kicked the dog**** out of that team last season.

They aren’t better until they prove it, either.

They beat us in Philly while our backup threw 3 INTs... oh, and we were STILL in the game (down 3 in the 4th quarter!) because we throttled Jalen Hurts.

You said we would expose them the week before when Rush was our QB. We didn’t. You can’t stick out your chest and say we’ll beat them with Rush and then weeks later whine that we didn’t have Dak. LOL.

And the teams this year are much different than the teams last year. We have a chance for redemption in December.

He’s from Harrisburg, PA. He’s born and raised in PA. He’s just rooting for his roots. Nothing wrong with him cheering for the Phillies, Flyers, Union etc.

Well we kinda did.. Even though we didn't win we did show that we can hunker down and run it down their throats just like they can do to us.. only our QB the next time won't be the backup. But yeah I agree the 3rd quarter comeback was impressive and instructional, but you can't puff your chest out if you don't seal the deal.. But the way they did it showed me something.. The defense clamped down and the offense put on the big boy pants and played smash mouth. They just didn't have enough left in the tank to pull out the win.. Especially if the backup was going to throw a crushing pick late in the game.. It is what it is.. They won.. they are unbeaten and in first place.. But I saw how the Cowboys can beat them in that game.. We'll see won't we...

He's a Pa and Penn State guy. No one should have an issue with him taking in a World Series game. Damn this board has gotten prickly.

The Eagles...lmao. I hope they play hard every game, I want them to wear themselves out, I want them to strut around the NFL thinking they are a big dog...I'll root for their games...then smile when it all come crashing down.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall. It's not how you start, it's how you finish. Yeah, it looks like the eagles are cooking right now and seems to be all in it...they won some battles, but they have not won the war. I've seen this played out in all kinds of games.

I feel like everyone in here is thinking waaaayyyyy more about the eagles...than eagles fans are thinking about us.

They've been to a zillion NFC champ games, a couple superbowls, and won 1 in last 2 decades while we've done nothing.

Before that we went to a bunch of NFC CG and won championships in 90's and 70s.

Then before that, eagles won a few championships in the 60s.

So what. Last year was last year. 2017 was 2017. 1993 was 1993. 1960.... was 1960.

Ig eagles fans and Dallas fans don't shut up and stop worrying about who is better, the freaking giants will sneak up and win the division.
