Philly probably has 20pt spread on Thur game

IMO the Eagles have the chance to be the first undefeated team since the Patriots in the regular season. The Cowboys are the only team that can beat them. They are legit. Gotta give them their props, easy schedule overall for them but they are doing what needs to be done.

I'm hoping to see Philly fans have a horrible Thursday thanks to Houston. With Astors playing the Phillies and Texans playing the Eagles. When the night is over hope to see some sad faces in Philly

Houston is 1-16 in their last 17 outside the division. They’ve won 9 total games over the last 3 years. Since 2020, they’re bottom 5 in points scored, and they’re one of 8 teams to allow over 1000 points on defense. On top of all that, they’ve had 3 days to prepare for one of only two teams that is top 4 in both offense and defense (Buffalo is beating us by 0.3 yards per game on defense, otherwise we could be the only team top 3 in both).

This is arguably the least winnable game in their franchise’s history

Interesting factoid: Philadelphia is 11-0 when playing Houston. 6-0 vs Oilers, 5-0 vs Texans

It's gonna be split. Eagles mutilate the Texans and Phillies fall behind 3-2 in series to the Astros.

I would tend to agree but then each week I see the impossible happen in the NFL. Would I bet my life saving on it? No but again would not be shocked. Thursday night football has for the most part been sloppy play as teams have little time to prepare and just the fact Houston has nothing to lose. Clearly would require a bad game by Philly for Houston to even have a chance

I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say the Texans somehow beating the Eagles tonight, would be one of the biggest upsets in regular season NFL history. It would take the Texans playing one of their best games they've had in years and the Eagles playing their worst of the season for this to happen. But I wouldn't be surprised if it's over before halftime even comes around.

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
Those are the worst teams to play because they have nothing to lose so normal gameplans can be thrown out the window when they start doing off the wall stuff like lining up in a wing t or wish bone formation.

He has played for 4 different NFL teams in his career. That raises a red flag to me. Maybe it's just as well we didn't sign him.

bears could be the team to upset them

they have the running game to pound on them
The whole game and an equal running QB to hurts

Totally agree. They won't have their mammoth rookie DT either. Run the ball, run the clock. I could totally see Philly losing to them.

The Texans have nothing to lose. They can let it all hang out.

You could’ve just said eagles by 30

The nfl record for fewest lost fumbles in a 16 game season is 2.

Philadelphia still has 0

What game are most of you guys tuning into? Eagles and hoping for a quick blow out and switching to the Phillies?
