Who Knocks Pilly Out Of The Playoffs?

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Just a note, but will the Seahawks lose their 3rd straight home game, when they play the Eagles next Sunday?

With a banged up backfield it's a possibility but expect Seattle to give it their all.

I don't think any of the potential playoff teams want to see Aaron RDodgers. Also wouldn't want to see Dallas with Zeke.

Both will be out of the playoff hunt by the end of the season

I hope.

I would think the consensus among most fans and the experts is an Eagles win. However, it is prime time and virtually anything is possible in this league week to week. We shall see.

I'm going out on a limb and say the Hawks will win in a close game. I just can't see the Hawks losing 3 straight home games.

FYI, hasn't happened since 2008 when they lost 5 in a row at home. And that was a 4-12 team.

In other words the team that could knock Philly out is Philly!

Hands down.......If they start playing sloppy, turning the ball over, missing tackles or dropping passes...

That Pass rush will pin its ears back on Wilson......Zero threat of a running game, thats gonna catch up to them IMO in a game like this

They havent run into the team yet that will force them into those mistakes.....Maybe no one will, we will see

Thanks for the info.

Don't forget that Seattle has a pretty good pass rush themselves.

No playoff experience (or barely any) for either of them. I like both those teams but I think it's going to take a seasoned QB to be Philly right now, especially on the road during the playoffs.

Problem with your "seasoned QB" is that Wentzel is NOT a seasoned QB and could just as easily swallow a chicken bone in his first playoff game. Most of the Eagles are playoff neophites and don't have a lot of "seasoning". Seattle even without Sherman will give them fits. Brees can make the Saints a bitch to face.

Worse.....................................if the Eagles win the NFCCG they have to face the possibility of the Steelers or Patriots who are probably a bit too "Spicy."

Oh they do, but at least the Eagles can keep them off balance with a balanced offensive attack

The Eagles defense doesnt even need to pay attention to Eddie Lacy or whatever other stiff they put back there

Now it begins...Two games on the road, once again Russell Wilson has decided to put his team on his back and carry them to the end, then they head south to play a young dangerous Rams team....

Personally would love the split on this road trip, this whole 1 game lose thing is starting to drive bat shit crazy...

Eagles have the best record - but
They squeaked by a bunch of teams. They are playing much better lately.
Have they peaked too early?
If they are going to get bumped out of the playoffs, who is going to do it?

Make your case.....

Lol dude you need to see more of them. They get better every week. I doubt any team works harder during the week and it has shown all year. The only team we lost to we would beat by 20 right now.

 

[eaglesnut]

Hopefully, no one. But the team that worries me most is New Orleans. The Saints knocked Philly out of the playoffs twice in the past decade. Payton seems to have our number.

Fletcher Cox remembers.

 

[eaglesnut]

50+ years reigning champions actually. No one has ever won a championship since.

 

[eaglesnut]

Devil's advocate here.....
What if - Dallas gets a couple lucky wins and then gets Zeke back?????

They will have trouble beating the backups week 17.
