I didn't even think about how the Vikings loss helped the Eagles today beyond draft position.

Here is a look at the complete NFC playoff picture this moment after today:

1. Dallas Cowboys (10-1)
2. Seattle Seahawks (7-2-1)
3. Detroit Lions (7-4)
4. Atlanta Falcons (7-4)
5. Giants (7-3)
6. Redskins (6-4-1)

IN THE HUNT:

7. Minnesota Vikings (6-5)
8. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-5)
9. Eagles (5-5)
10. Arizona Cardinals (4-5-1)

I'm not about this whole division love. But I'd be so down with 3 NFCE teams in the playoffs for the hilarity if our rise out of medicocrity.

And knocking the Cowboys AND Giants out of the playoffs in the playoffs would be The Best

I hate the other three teams in the division and want them to lose every game but discussion is more interesting when you step back and think objectively about the teams rather than just posting "we're going to win" every week.

e: Especially since you're wrong literally half the time :smug:

The Eagles are gonna win and Paul Turner is gonna score 3 touchdowns.

Eagles may deactivate Nelson Agholor tonight or limit snaps.

Jordan Matthews will be used more primarily on the outside and Paul Turner will be the slot.

Interesting.

Vikings missing the playoffs and continuously losing the rest of the season and the Eagles making the playoffs AND taking the Vikings first round pick in the process would make Howie Roseman look like Houdini.

WTF happened to our pass rush?!?

My only excuse I can make is that Aaron Rodgers is too familar with Jim Schwartz and is still Aaron Rodgers at the end of the day and has just been in a slump. Wentz looks better than everything around him on offense. We've been seeing how this team is with being gutted of all of our playmakers via Chip.

But, on the same note, we wouldn't have gotten Wentz had we still had those playmakers so who the gently caress knows :shrug:

Paul Turner had more catches and receiving yards in this game (his first starting) than Agholor has in his entire career of games.

There was one off-season where the Eagles had DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, LeSean McCoy, and Darren Sproles signed at the same time.

And then DeSean was let go...

The Eagles are big time missing a good veteran hard working WR. Luck had Reggie Wayne, Cam had Steve Smith, RGIII had Pierre Garcon (you know, before RGIII died), Wentz has nothing. Think of how much even Kirk Cousins has been surrounded by tremendous receiving talent in DeSean, Garcon, Reed, Vernon Davis, Crowder, Doctson. It's possible tomorrow that Wentz will take the field with Ertz, a 1st rounder who looks like a bust, and two undrafted WRs. Really excited to see what the Eagles aggressive front office will be doing to address that this offeseason.

After we get done kicking the Redskins's rear end tomorrow :shepspends:

"At 5-8, the Eagles are still mathematically alive for a playoff spot. According to FPI, they face 5 million-to-1 odds. The scenario: The Eagles must win out, the Falcons, Redskins and Packers must all lose out. The Vikings must beat the Packers, but lose their other 2 games. The Buccaneers must beat the Panthers in Week 17. The Saints must lose to the Cardinals or Buccaneers. And the Cardinals must lose at least once."

Eagles finish with the toughest schedule (strength of schedule) in the NFL this season.

Also to note, Eagles had by far the strongest Strength of Victory (beating teams with good records).

If OBJ has only punched one hole in a wall and it was over a NFL playoff loss after he had 23 targets and like 4 catches, then he's already doing way better than my old roommate who punched several holes in a wall over his dumb first ex.

From the coaching change? I don't think any major players are hitting free agency.
