Week 12 - 2013

[ice grillin you]

who to root for this week??

ascending new york who are 1.5 games back
descending dallas who are .5 games back

[phattymatty]

seems weird to root for a team to tie the birds for first but i want dallas to win. eli/coughlin scare me much more down the stretch than romo. the farther back the giants are the better.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yeah I agree with that.

Plus it will be that much sweeter when Dallas blows it at the end of the year

[General_Failure]

I've seen enough Eli playoff bullshtein magic, so if they're not going to tie and the stadium isn't going to blow up, I'll just hope for a Giants loss.

[Rome]

As always when these fargers play in cheering for an asteroid to smash the both of em.

[ice grillin you]

i think you gotta go giants for two reasons

1. the eagles would have a much harder time winning a tiebreaker vs dallas

which makess two even more important....

2. more than likely only one team going to make the playoffs out of the nfce so being in first is most important....id rather have a one game lead over anyone than be tied with a team that has a tiebreaker advantage on me

of course none of this means anything if you think the giants are going to finish ahead of the cowboys.....clearly the giants have history on their side but im not a history guy

[Rome]

The Giants are the lesser of two evils.

Go space rocks.

[Eagles_Legendz]

Remaining giants schedule seems more difficult to me.   Rooting for a NY win.

[smeags]

A - for asteroid hitting the stadium

[MDS]

the giants absolutely suck

theres nothing stopping dallas from winning that week 17 game

gotta go giants. theyll fall down eventually.

That logic is flawed. The Giants usually run at the end, and the Cowboys typically fall apart late. I hate both teams, but I want the Cowboys to win this one, I think. I'm a little biased because I live in the heart of Giants country. I seriously can't handle another lucky-ass run to the playoffs for the Giants. I just can't.

[QB Eagles]

The Giants are not going to make the playoffs. Believing history is stupid. Look at the teams they beat (Freeman, Barkley, Pryor, Tolzien). Look at their remaining schedule. Look at their record. Watch their games. They suck. Worse than the Eagles, worse than the Cowboys.

I'm going to root for the team that has absolutely zero chance of making the playoffs. That would be the NY Giants.

[QB Eagles]

id rather have a one game lead over anyone than be tied with a team that has a tiebreaker advantage on me

Plus when you have the sole lead coming out of the byes, first place is yours to lose. The Eagles just have to take care of business. The Eagles have a tough schedule down the stretch in my opinion and might be worse than 4 of the 5 teams they face. I want space between them and whatever challengers are behind them. They have to be two games up on the 'Boys going into the final week to avoid it being the NFCE Championship.

[MDS]

the giants can easily win this game because its the friggin cowboys

but really they are just god awful. just terrible. not about playing better in week 13 or whatever. they just flat out suck.

[ice grillin you]

The Eagles have a tough schedule down the stretch in my opinion

i dont know if its tough or its just not the absolute dreck they have been playing the last seven weeks.....the three "tough" games are all at home...and yeah i know the eagles suck at home but to get detroit outside on grass and arizona anywhere on the road are big deals....i think chicago is a loss...

either way its going to be interesting to see if the eagles have improved enough to beat teams with winning records or are they still the team who started out 3-5....at the very least we know the qb position is exponentially improved
