I turned off the Eagles game and am watching A Boy Named Charlie Brown on MeTV. I’m enjoying my evening much better now.

I very rarely bet against the Birds, but if the odds are screaming against them, I will. Let's just say, I too am enjoying my evening much better now.

I hate to say it, but I feel the Eagles are on the verge of a 2023-type collapse. This team is way too soft to even hold on to a 21-0 lead. The offense is broken, and the defense can only hold up for so long. (In fact, I can see the defense starting to crack.)

The Eagles are going to lose on Friday, and will probably end with a 9-8 or 10-7 record. That may still be good enough to win the NFC East, but we will likely lose to a team like Seattle in the Wild Card round.

Can’t argue with you. This is the time of year you want to hit your stride and start to peak. That ain’t the Eagles. Do they do anything well? You could say defense but now the injuries are piling up.

The thing about the NFL this year is I don’t see any elite team, everyone looks beatable.
