Ahhhh, so I'm now 7-1. I should probably quit while I'm ahead....and while I don't want to jinx next weekend's results.

As if I needed any further affirmation that DF is humbling, I started the Eagles/Saints game up by $35, and finished the day with a whopping $1 profit.

The Eagles probably would have had much better seeding if Carson Wentz hadn't played at all this year.

Nope! This is a great loss for Philly! Remember, I'm not Batman so I know when the team I support doesn't have enough to make it.

Couldn’t tell you. Never been in that situation. Knowing myself, I would still have their backs through thick and thin. I could never bail on my team. Love them too much. My blood, sweat, and tears cheer them on each and every game.

Lol, but Dallas nation sure thought there was a chance.

Huh? Wentz was actually playing pretty good. The defense was atrocious. The secondary in particular was ranked in the bottom of almost every worthwhile statistic.
Wentz didn’t lose to @Tennessee in OT. Wentz was up 16-0 against Carolina going into the 4th quarter. That gives Philly 11 wins, if the defense can hold and the #4 seed. But that didn’t really matter.
Wentz never got the ball against Dallas in OT.
The secondary was a massive letdown this year, largely in part to all the injuries. Outside of Jenkins the entire secondary was starting players that weren’t even on the team in week 1.

Not at all. Philly had been playing elimation games since week 15. Dallas was pretty much in cruise control.
Not to mention winning it all last year and Dallas not having made it to a Conference game in almost a quarter century.
Sorry, Dallas fans wanted this much more than Philly. No two ways about it.

[Batman1980]

They did, Garrett pulled a Garrett and here we are. Would certainly take a lot of sting out of yesterday's loss if Garrett and Marinelli join Linehan on the unemployment line. On the fence about Richard since the secondary is actually the worst part of our defense and that's the part he has a personal hand in.

Here's the thing though, why is that a bad thing? I just don't understand why it's a bad thing for them to want their team to win. How long had it been since the Eagles won a SB before last year? The narrative is always the same, "Dallas has won squat since the mid 90s, we get it. Just some perspective from a guy that somehow manages to support his team without smack talking other teams.

All good things come to an end eventually. Oh well, kind of saw this coming.
I see you live in Minnesota. I can’t thank you enough for the use of your shiny new stadium last year.
I will never forget it.

I never said it was a bad thing. Just that the Dallas loss stung more Dallas fans harder than the Philly loss did their fans. That isn’t smack talk either.

Hey I’ve been doing pint curls all day and shoveling snow. I’m more concerned about my DVR shows that won’t record tonight. Lol!

Well duh, hence why I said PREDICTION.

[Britbuffguy]

With the Eagles losing, I'm just wondering whose penis all the grown men in Philadelphia will be worshiping tonight?
Seriously, all the talk of Foles' junk was...weird.

[imsounoriginal]

Oh well. Onto next season. Thanks for the memories, Nick.

Fair enough, until next season then.

You can most likely thank Bill Simmons for that...
