CFZ What would a win over the Eagles mean

Keep poking the bear...

What bear?

Pour honey on it.

Some one made a thread saying next weeks game is not a must win. However, here is what a win or a loss means as to % of winning the division.
yes, many more games to go.

No playoffs is currently at 23% and a win moves us to 13%. A loss drops us to 25%. A win increases our HFA from 11% to 18%

An Eagles win or loss does not change much of anything for them. It just increases their HFA to 65% from 55%. A loss also decreases their chance for the division from 55% to minus 37%. If I looked at that correctly.

So this game means more to Dallas than it does the Eagles as far as that goes. Therefore to me it is a must win to put ourselves in control of the NFCE. Also on the path to HFA. As we are tied with Seattle at 11% for that behind Philly

Beat Philly, then they have a bye week, we play the Panthers. We can get even with the Eagles at 7-2, but technically be in first with the 1 game head to head.
So Dallas can control it's own destiny with a win.

I’ll tell you if they win.

It’s an opportunity to vault ourselves atop not only our division but the top seed in NFC.

Or another loss to a top NFC team and we become more of a WC contender as current 6th seed than serious SB contender.

Not sure why some fans want to play it down ?

If we win a certain group of people on here will say they were not very good and we have not beaten anyone yet.

I guarantee.

Perhaps
To me it is not a must win but definitely a critical game
Go in their house and beat them, beyond the obvious game advantage, that creates belief and confidence for us and doubt for them
