The Eagles have just fallen apart the last third of the season. Barely slipping by the Giants at home last week and losing at home to the Cardinals today. They play at the Giants next week and the Cowboys play at Washington. Dallas might just take the division.

Massive for Dak and Dallas. Not only does winning the division give you the first playoff game at home, you wouldn't meet San Fran until the NFC conference championship game (if at all).

Compare:
  • 5th seed: @ NFC South winner, @ SF (barring 6th or 7th seed win in Wild Card)
  • 2nd seed: host the 7th seed, host Detroit (or PHI / NFC South matchup winner)
THE COWBOYS HAVE TO BEAT THE WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM!

Something is going on. You could see players fighting with each other on camera off the field down the stretch. There definitely is no joy in Mudville.

You all underestimate Dallas. They will lose to Washington. The problem is that Philly might very well lose to the NYG.

They played in consecutive weeks the Cowboys, at Chiefs, Bills, 49ers, at Cowboys, and at Seahawks.

They squeaked out a win against the Giants last week and lost today.
They're still a Top 6 on so NFL team when rested and focused, but for whatever reason, they're simply not up to last year's standard. It happens to all but the very best teams and it's not uncommon after a Super Bowl run (see KC this year)

By design the best teams from the previous year have on paper the hardest schedules to begin the season. Theirs was no exception and that stretch of teams was pretty daunting even for the best ones. Theyre still good but I think they’re a little worn down at this point.

I’ll almost be surprised if both of these don’t happen.
Dallas never wastes an opportunity to screw things up. Philly is struggling. They almost lost to the NYG in Philly week 16. NYG are playing to screw over somebody. Depends on who they want to screw over more.

The Eagles’ problem is their defense. More specifically it’s their LBers. Analytics is telling teams to save at RB and LB. With Nakobe Dean hurt (like always), they’re struggling with Shaq Leonard & Zach Cunningham out there. And, Nolan Smith isn’t making much of an impact.

Last few games, Philly has allowed:

35 - Arizona (L)
25 - Giants (W)
20 - Seattle (L)
33 - Cowboys (L)
42 - 49ers (L)
34 - Bills (W)
