Eagles o line is supposed to be one of the best but didn’t appear that way last night with Peters out. The Cowboys line looks pretty mediocre whenever Tyron Smith is out too.
On paper, you have a talented roster and coaching staff.
Mike Groh is useless as OC and Schwartz got exposed in the super bowl and hasn't been able to adjust since. there's a reason we had a top 5 defense in 2017, won the super bowl, and he didn't even get an interview for a head coaching position.
we have no young core of players on either side of the ball. Wentz and Ertz are the difference makers on offense, but since our WRs are big and slow, to shut us down, all you have to do is double cover ertz since no one on the outside is a threat. I like the 1-2 punch of JH and Sanders but the rotation doesn't allow either of them to get into a rhythm. I like the line, but they definitely strike me as group that thinks they can just show up and dominate. I believe last night was the first time this year we scored a TD in the first quarter on the road.
as for the defensive side, we have big slow linebackers, no high volume sack guy on the line, and a clear lack of talent in the secondary. malcolm is regressing, cox has zero sacks this year, the scheme is predictable as fuck and leaves our corners on islands way too frequently.
we have 1 pro bowler on the roster that was drafted by us since 2013 (wentz). we are either drafting the wrong guys or really bad at developing talent, i think it might be a little of both.
The NFC East for the last handful of years has been a trash division, heavily overrated due to the high population of the markets and popularity of the teams in said division.
Well there is a strong vet presence on that team which usually matters come December/January. All things being equal, you'd almost certainly have to beat Dallas in Week #16 since it's probably not very likely that a wild card is coming out of the East.
If you try to forecast the rest of the season out between Dallas and Philadelphia, you could see Dallas probably picking up 4 more wins out of the pool of its remaining games. I'd give them wins over @ the Giants, at home vs. Washington and you have to like them at least a little vs. Detroit in Detroit and Buffalo at home though those could go either way. I'll give them the loss at New England and a revenge fueled game in Philadelphia. That leaves their home game against Minnesota, the Thursday game against the Bears in Chicago and then home vs. L.A. Rams to define their season. <-- NOTE, will it go like this? Of course not. But from a general look at the upcoming schedule. Dallas record range should be 8-8 up to 11-5 IMHO.
For the Eagles, it's @ Buffalo, home vs. Bears, Bye Week, hosting the Patriots, hosting the Seahawks, at Miami, back home for the Giants, at Washington, hosting Dallas and then finishing the season against the Giants again. Division games can be difficult, but let's just assume the Eagles take out the Giants twice, Washington and then the Cowboys game in week #16 as noted above. That gives them 7 wins. Eagles are better than the Dolphins and should beat them. That's 8 wins. On paper, they'll probably lose to the Seahawks and Patriots. Then you'd have to figure out how you want to rate their chances against Chicago, Detroit and Buffalo. Seems like a range of 8-8 to 10-6 which might or might not be enough to catch Dallas. Unless Dallas was to melt down which they probably won't, the Week #16 match up looks like it could be large from this far out.

yea - cowboys have a harder schedule, but we're the worse team. i'm just hoping to see some fight next week against buffalo. team showed absolutely no heart after the two early fumbles.
To cut through any perceived bullshit though, you have lost to the Bucs, Saints, Jets and Packers. You beat Eagles, Dolphins and Redskins. We have won 5 straight including 2 wins on the road against 2018 playoff teams and 1 2018 playoff team at home without Drew Brees. I like our chances of having a better season than the Cowboys.
We don't play the Bucs this year and we're 4-3. We also beat the Giants, who are also not good, though they might be a little better with Daniel Jones next time we play them after this week's bye.
Our defense hasn't been able to manufacture turnovers, which was what changed in this Eagles game, even though at least one was just a botched shotgun snap that Wentz simply lost.

Nah.
The Cowboys and Eagles both won playoff games last year, and the Eagles won the Super Bowl two seasons ago. The other two teams are dogshit, but the Cowboys and Eagles have been pretty good. And it's not like anyone has been overrating the Giants or Redskins because of what city they're from lol. People know how bad they are.

My bad. That Tampa loss was preseason. That's the bad plug in for the Giants game 1 (win for you).
I'm not sure if it's just because I'm old but there have been some God awful MNF "performances" this season. Like this is Charlie Puth song is hideous.

I'm still not sure whether the mom in his song is pissed because he's having sex with her daughter or pissed because he's exposing her to such shitty music. The latter seems more likely.
One can interpret that stat in different ways. I see it as Watson is the biggest choker with the game on the line since 1950.
I see it as you always have a chance with him in the game. I think that stat holds up all the way back to his time at Clemson. The only games they lost when he was a starter were Bama (by 5), Pitt (by a last second fg and a GT game that he started but got injured early in the game.
