Question

[Spectre]

If the Cowboys/Eagles game has been moved to 4:00 PM....
And the Eagles "need help to get in the playoffs even if they beat the Cowboys"....

who do the Eagles need to win to help their playoff bid AND do they play BEFORE the Eagles play Dallas on Sunday?

in other words: is there a chance the Eagles will know before our game whether or not they have something to play for?

I believe Tampa and Oakland play at 1. They will know by gametime. Even if the coaches don't let them, or they don't show it on the scoreboard - word will get to them.

Tampa I believe. They are 9-6 and if they Eagles beat the Cowboys and Tampa loses they will be 9-6-1 and Tampa will be 9-7 giving the Eagles a better record.

I believe they also need Chicago to lose a game, right? Chicago could end up 10-6.

Yes. I was aware of that, I'm just not sure why I didn't note that. :
