Eagles are not going to win the division. Even if they lose, I think some of you will still find a way to think they've got a shot.

Eagles 10
Giants 30

The man. The myth. The legend.

I think I am just going to stick by the the predictions of doom and gloom from 2 weeks ago when everyone said the season was over.

You are correct.  I do not even give them a chance to win.  The Giants will either roll or pull it out in the 4th.  The Eagles have a soft team that will buckle one way or the other.

I would love to be wrong, but I've seen nothing from this year's squad that leads me to believe that they can win an important game against a good team.

Not that I think the birds are going to roll over anyone...let alone realisticly even win the game...

But were your eyes closed during the Steelers game?

And you're wrong enough to prove just how much you love to be wrong.

The Steelers game was early in the season against an AFC team - hardly important.  I would trade that for a win against the Cowboys, Bears, or skins.

Wingspan

Can you go through the rest of the schedule and point out which of the remaining games are important enough to base future points of reference on?

Well, since they've already lost two in the division and three against the NFC, I'd say the only remaining games that aren't important are the ones against Cincinnati and Cleveland.  If they win out except for those two, they're in like flint.

Baltimore is important because IGY hates them and because Munson is happy for Harbaugh and wacko for Flacco.

Clearing this up now saves dozens of posts later in the season. Strong work.

I fear it'll be a flashback to the days of Kerry Collins and Tiki Barber where the Eagles could not touch Collins and he'd work the hell out of the middle of the field and keep the chains moving all afternoon. Then Bradon Jacobs would play the part of Tiki; but rather than cut back to the weak-side, Jacobs will truck people.

The only thing that may not happen is Jacobs trucking...maybe the run defense can man up again.

But Eli, I think, is going to use Steve Smith and Plaxico like crazy.

I hope the Eagles somehow find a way to win.

oh and i dont hate baltimore

oh and every game is important when youre in a division that could have four playoff teams if it were allowed

i think "soft" is the right word for this team.

the only time i saw any sort of determination from this team was against the cowboys when they would come right back after the cowboys would score and in the game against the niners when they fell behind in the 4rth.

other than it seems like if you get this team down early they will be down for the rest of the game.

What are you talking about?

In their three losses they took a 14-7 lead vs the bears, a 14-0 lead vs the skins, and they were killing dallas in the first half.

I am not sure they've been more than 10 points down at any point this season. In fact it may be at little as not being more than 7 points down.

Although if you read here, going three and out on a couple of 1st quarter drives, you'd think they'd never score again.

I heard somewhere that the Seattle game was Reid's worst ever as a head coach.
