My team is 8-1 and they could very easily be playing in the Super Bowl this year!
I joke and talk smack but reality slapped me in the face today and these kids could be seriously playing that first weekend come February!

Holy shet the pressure is mounting!

I've seen nothing in their play to prevent them from getting to the Superbowl.....
Remarkable turnaround for a team that not long ago appeared to be headed for years of rebuilding.....

As a fan I have want to hope but if we are being honest the Eagles have to be at a minimum the best team in the NFC. That beating they put on the best defense in the NFL was impressive.

It's the first week in November. While the Eagles appear to be the team to beat in the NFC, there is a whole lot of football to be played between now and January. When you get a playoff birth, then you start thinking about bigger things, but lots of crazy stuff can happen in Nov and Dec.

Right now, the Eagles are looking like all that...but it's very early...

I certainly am not calling Superbowl. Too early to start buying tickets. Anything can happen in the playoffs. Being the best in the NFL means absolutely nothing in the playoffs you only have to ask the 2016 Cowboys. Going into the season I did not even think the Eagles were going to win the division let alone be contenders. However after watching them this year give a tough Chiefs team all it can handle on the road and then dismantling of the Broncos defense I can honestly say there is not a team in the NFL the Eagles can't beat........actually doing it though is no guarantee.

The next 4 games will tell me a lot about the Eagles.

3 road games against Dallas, Seattle, and LA Rams. Go 2-1 in those 3 games will tell me a lot.

I'll be OK if they play on February 4th, as long as they LOSE on February 4th.

It was a solid win, but it was also over a team that appears to be quiting on the season.

Eagles sure look like a huge favorite in the NFC right now. Let's wait and see if they put the pedal to the floor or choke it away:martini:

It is still early but they do look great so far. Remember to enjoy the ride though, because chances are the last game of their season will be very disappointing. I wasn't old enough to see the Flyers win back to back cups in the 70's but have followed the Flyers and Eagles for about 40 years. I don't know exactly how many times those 2 teams have lost either in the Super Bowl/Stanley cup finals or the series to get into those games but I can ballpark it at about 12-15 (?). And the number of times those teams were in the playoffs and didn't win has got to be around 45-50. So as good as they have looked it is still a big challenge................then again....maybe we're Due!
Fuck it, I'm all in dammit---Go Eagles!!!!!!

Week in and week out I watch them to see a possible weak spot, and there isn't anything to point and say," oh hell that's a problem and will cost them in the playoffs!"

Just like all the good things Trump has done are really cause of Obama, all this Philly success is really thanks to Chip Kelly.
