That's just sad...

Horrible horrible team. How do they go from the most dominant team in the NFL 5 weeks ago to probably the worst? I can only assume poor coaching? McCaffery exposed the fuck out of this team btw showing the world how predictable they truly are. Kudos to the 9ers.

No matter how bad they end their season the Birds will always be my team.  No fence sitters allowed.  Don't like the result,  find another team....

I don't think anyone wants (or even thought) to find another team but something is seriously wrong internally/coaching. They can't even tackle for Christ sake...very basic stuff.

You can be a fan and acknowledge that this team fucking blows. Expect a quick exit next week with baker mayfield throwing for 400+. I think the entire coaching staff, Sirianni included, needs to be overhauled. If they don’t completely overhaul the staff, they are going to ruin another qb after giving him a huge contract and will be under .500 for years to come. I don’t know how they can even rebuild or retool the roster with their cap situation so they need to completely retool the staff. Otherwise there is going to be nothing but pain going forward. Really hope Kelce retires… this teams window is shut for years to come.

This is the same thing that happened in 1994 with Kotite. The players quit after getting manhandled twice by SF and Dallas.  Had plenty of time to make changes on both sides of the ball with the play calling and did nothing. This is what happened. 

Hopefully they put next weeks game on Peacock so they don't embarrass themselves on National TV. 

I usually post this when people say Winter is over on January 1st. However I will post in honor of the Eagles collapse...

Think Kotite started 7-2 that year then the wheels fell off...

*Eagles/Tampa Bay game is Monday 8pm

My heart bleeds Eagle green, but the green in my wallet says TB is easy $$...thoughts oh sportsbook guru?

Also a revenge game for TB who the Birds beat earlier in the season. (25-11)

I only follow betting lines now but even in my gambling days I never bet against the Birds. But yeah, I'm thinking like you. This team is a mess. Wouldn't be surprised if it's a pick'em or TB is favored at game time.

Edit: Not sure if true, WIP caller, TB 1-7 vs winning teams this season. Sounds hard to believe and win the division.

Birds now 2.5 favs. Something fishy.

I was clearing out some old Inky News Alert email messages and saw one from a year ago today, where they announced that the Eagles snagged the #1 seed.  Also had old messages about how right after the SB last year, our OC was hired by the Colts and DC by the Cardinals as head coaches. 

And here we are today.

Despite the record leading up to this, those last set of Ws were stress-out nail-biters which foretold the future.  Seems like the team has been "quiet quitting" the latter part of the season. <_<

Yeah, at some books, just heard that.

Wifey suggests taking my winnings from the last 5 Eagles games and just watch this one. She's usually pretty good at feeling how these play out. Says it's going to be fugly. It looks like a rainer to boot? Tampa stadium doesn't have a roof, correct?

Even if we were to win, we're still sunk having to play again on a short week.  Just get it over with! Too late to right the ship. I'm a little pissed.

The difference between that pic and the Eagles is a large portion of the Titanic is still above water :lol:

And yes, when did Monday night playoff games become a thing? Guess I haven't been paying attention. And I'm not saying this because it's the Eagle, but a Monday night game seems like a competitive disadvantage for whoever wins. But when has the NFL ever cared about the players or its fans? TV ratings baby!!

Last three years the NFC 4-5 seeds have had their playoff game on Monday night. It was inevitable.

Up to -3 at some sports books now. O/U 44.5...

Pitt +10 is something to look at. Josh will get picked and the Bills are due for a dud winning the last 5 after starting 6-6.

Weather and sports, I'm in...

  • Multiple NFL wild card playoff games this weekend could have significant weather impact.
  • The game Saturday night in Kansas City could be the coldest on record for both the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs.
  • Sunday's game in Buffalo could have lake-effect snow and strong, cold winds.
  • Finally, a third game Monday night could have rain, perhaps thunderstorms.

After the Birds win...

Do you think? They are in complete dissaray. AJ Brown deleted everything Eagles from his IG yesterday.  Looks like he wants off the team now. What makes you think they are going to show and compete? Are they just playing opossum??

Not at all. They are a mess. I'm trying to convince myself but they are too far gone and not on the same page.

Betting? 6 point tease is where I'd go.

TB +9

Pitt +15.5

I just saw where the Bills/Steelers game was moved to Monday at 4:30 pm due to an incoming blizzard.
