Birds December Race For The Playoffs

[Sgt PSN]

I love how the NFL backloaded the schedule with division games...this is going to be great

Agree....but what I'd really like to see is the first and last 3 games of the year be divisional games. It'll never happen because the league would lose over half of their division rivalries for SNF and MNF but it would still be awesome.

Eagles do not have an edge over GB. GB won the head to head game and hold the advantage over the Eagles for the Wild Card.

you are talking tie breakers im talking the team that has the better chance to finish with the best record

[Sgt PSN]

I'm talking about the team not coached by Andy Reid.

10-6 isn't going to get the Eagles in this year unless one of those W's is against the Giants.  Eagles lose tiebreakers just about across the board in the NFC because of conference record.

Yeah, it's really a weird year in the sense that the Eagles could be dangerous enough to make it to the Super Bowl, but at the same time... by losing that game at the Giants, they could very easily miss the playoffs before they even get started.

Those losses to GB and Chicago could come back to haunt them... I don't think a WC is coming out of the East this year. It's either take the division or go home.

I was just talking to my friend last night about this. Playoffs start this week. We should (hopefully) be watching some good football throughout. This is not even including the AFC. Oakland, KC....Indy, Jacksonville, Houston....NY Jets and New England, Pittsburgh, Baltimore......it's nuts.

I agree...this is getting exciting to watch...and with as many bad teams as there are...in recent memory...this has become one of the most competitive final stretches for the NFL.

Let's see what the Eagles are made of. I'm hoping they can avenge the atrocity of the last two games vs. Dallas this Sunday.

My NFL erection is in full rage.

Yes, my pecker is also irate.

Yeah Sarge Andy does have a crappy record in December.

[QB Eagles]

I'm talking about the team not coached by Andy Reid.

Getting into the playoffs has never really been much of a problem for Reid.

[Sgt PSN]

I'm talking about the team not coached by Andy Reid.

Getting into the playoffs when the division/conference is weak has never really been much of a problem for Reid.

[ice grillin you]

at the same time theres no evidence that he cant do it in a tough conference as hes never coached in one until this year

theres also the vick factor which could supercede any bad coaching that you seem to think will not allow them to make the playoffs

[Rome]

Their fate is still susceptible to his time management mangling, retarded play-calling & pathological hatred of the run.

If they somehow pull a miracle out of their asses and win the Super Bowl, they won't win because of that fat farger; they'll win despite him.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Salty Rome, everyone!

[Rome]

Ha... no reason to be cynical here.  After all, look at all the Lombardi Trophies he's won!

[PhillyPhreak54]

Cynicism is cool, as I share it on certain things. Mainly the defense.

But I like when you're spittin' fire. Feisty! Fiery!

[MDS]

its an interesting question but definitely up for debate:

who hates who more, j with rube or rome with andy?

[Tomahawk]

Does PhillyPhreak love McNabb more than Rome hates Reid?
