Even a broken clock is on time twice a day; eventually the blind squirrel finds a nut, and other fantastic fables.

You know. The stick-figure with 61 recepts (44th) on 100 targets for a 61% catch rate (157th!). 207 YAC is (106th), 5 TDs (tied for 56th).

So 3.81 recepts per game on 6.25 targets is now considered "great"?

After the Eagles lost to the Chargers I said they had a good chance of winning out. They have won every game except one, which Reagor dropped two potential game winning TDs on the final drive.


And yeah they beat bad teams to get in. Congrats on finally realizing what I have been laying out since early in the season that the Eagles had the easiest remaining schedule in the league and would have a really good chance of being in the mix for a wild card spot.
Before you start thumping your chest princess, I don't believe I ever challenged you on the schedule. I mentioned 8-0 is over the top with how the team was playing at that time. You should thank Siriani for changing up the scheme and actually making you look somewhat knowledgeable for once.

I remind all that the Eagles lost to the Gnats during the stretch.

the prediction of 8-0 or whatever it was, did not occur.

eagles were never likely to sweep the divisional games left, it rarely happens in the NFCE

Maybe one day you will look knowledgeable for once although I seriously doubt it.

To be fair, Raegor will have more playoff appearances than Justin Jefferson.....
How is that relevant in determining if a WR is better then another WR?

Hey man, I'm just agreeing with you. Vikings play in a really tough division having to go up against both the Lions and Bears twice each year. That had to be especially brutal for them this season.

Well I have to say, I didn't want to do this. But after dealing with constant harassment and ridicule all season by people who think they know a lot more than they do when all I had done was present a well thought out roadmap for what I believed would happen based on actual facts of the season. After all of that, I simply have to do this now.


There is no doubt many that I will miss in this thread, but I will focus mainly on the Philly trades Zach Ertz thread where this first began and then also my Power Rankings for week 8. But let's start with that Zach Ertz thread. I pointed out from the start how the Eagles didn't seem to have issue with being able to beat bad teams. It was only when they played good teams with good QBs that they struggled and lost. Upon review of the schedule it was pretty clear that after the first part of the season that it was mostly bad teams and bad QBs left.


It was October 15th, the Eagles had just fallen to the Bucs to go 2-4 and they finally traded Zach Ertz which was long overdue. At this point @dbldwn711 made the ridiculous statement, as he often does, that:







This of course was not the case. Which I pointed out in a very logical post and of course dbldwn711 kept going back at me with laughable nonsense that was laughable back then for people who are capable of seeing the big picture like me but now it is laughable for everyone else now too.

If you think you know so much why did you incorrectly predict the Eagles would win their final 8 games of the season?

They only lost one game in that stretch. A game that would have been won too if Reagor made any of these two catches at the end of the game.

:laugh3:


Really, you do realize they didn't finish the season 8-0 as you proclaimed? You even argued with anyone that disagreed with you.

Can't even admit you were wrong in saying they'd finish 8-0. Too funny.

Gott ask is your motto- when I'm right I'm right and when I'm wrong I'm right?

Well let's go back and revisit it all. Everything went down in the Power Rankings for week 10 after the Eagles had lost to the Chargers.






Right off the bat before we even get to I see a few things unrelated to the Eagles I hit out of the park. You have people criticizing my move to put the Packers at #1 following a loss without Rogers. As we enter the final week of the season now, Packers currently have the most wins in the NFL. So I'd have to say I was correct on the Packers.

For them to lose by just 6 points with such an incapable player in at QB when Rodgers is coming back healthy soon it just speaks to the quality of that game. Especially after upsetting the Cardinals in Arizona as short handed as they were for that game.


Then we have people criticizing me for having the Falcons at 27 (they sit at 26 in my final power rankings for the season). Once again people here buying into that team being anything more than terrible which I already established earlier in the season.

@Scooby-Doo @returnofjakedog @Moab @rmilia1 How about the Falcons that you so valiantly propped up this season?


Falcons only have 3-4 potential wins on the rest of their schedule.

I mean you also wouldve said they couldnt beat NO in NO too

So ...

Only probable losses i see are at Dallas, at Buff, vs TB


Vs NE
Vs Det
Vs NO
@Carolina
@SF
@Jax

are all winnable and honestly even the first 3 arent unwinnable as its the NFL and anything can happen

9-8 maybe 8-9 makes the playoffs this year so we shall see what happens

Falcons are a bad team. They won't beat the Patriots. Doubt they beat the 49ers either. As the bad team that they are they likely drop one of the other games as well.
Lol ok man
The Falcons have only played one good team so far this season and they got smashed by them. The next closest thing to a good team is the Saints who they just barely beat but Saints are adrift at sea now after losing Winston. Beyond that the Falcons have either just lost to bad teams or barely scraped by beating bad teams.

They aren't good.
You clearly didnt watch either of those games as if you had youd know the TB game was a 3 pt game entering the 4th and a few tipped balls turned it into a lopsided final and youd also know Atl dominated the Saints the majority of the game

Its cool man. You wanna rank Philly 20 and Atl 27? Its whatever. Good thing about the NFL is theres no style points or SoS. If we are 9-8 at years end and youre 7-10 youll get tp go home and we will keep playing and no one will csre you beat us or that you had " better losses". That shit is for college
You won't be 9-8 at the end of the year. Your team is terrible. Even if you get to 9-8, the Eagles are very likely going to be around 9-8 as well and they own the tie-breaker over the shitty Falcons.


Everything that I just said there in my well thought out arguments for how things would play out for the Falcons and Eagles was 100% TRUE!
