What a cupcake schedule this team has played.

WAY OVERRATED and very well could get bounced again in the NFC playoffs as a big favorite.

The Eagle are my team and have been my team since 1973 and I have to agree, this 12-1 record is misleading, given their ridiculously easy schedule...Don't get me wrong, you still gotta win the games on your schedule, but I will admit that the last 4 or 5 years, I have literally shook my head every August when I would look at the upcoming Eagles schedule and see how lucky they got with their "draw" of opponents...Kudos to Any Ried for winning 11 games in a row for what, 5 years in a row now?...But man, has he had an easy schedule for at least 3 or 4 years in a row now...

Hey, I am a die-hard Eagles fan and want them to win the SuperBowl, of course, DYING just to see them get there after the last 3 years, but the way Pittsburgh man-handled them has me worried...The saving grace here is that the NFC is weak, and hopefully, they will avoid an upset on their home field yet again in the playoffs, and if they can just hold serve and make it to the Big Dance, hopefully they will find a beat-up AFC who had to get through a murderous AFC playoff draw waiting for them on a neutral field, where, sh^t, anything can happen...

If your an Eagles fan you also have to be alarmed by the mounting injuries this team has had since preseason. especially on the line.I know most teams are banged up this time of year but the season enders this team has had, could easily derail this team again. Plus they have this false sense of security that they are better then the rest of the teams. I believe Green Bay or Atlanta wins NFC. I know Green Bay got beat bad two weeks ago, but everything went wrong in that game that could. It doesn't matter, but in a strange way it is a phsychological advantage for the Pack.

Quite frankly, you are one of the most intelligent posters on this forum............which says alot with the abundance of sharps around here.

dinged up...yes.
not all that great a team...probably not
will they win the nfc...yes.

who will beat them in philly? atlanta win a nfc championship game on the road...who are you kidding? and green bay...they were barley got by the frickin' lions last week...in green bay.

face it guys, philly is going to the superbowl. they will get slammed when they get there but they are going...despite all the trendy thinking to the contrary.
 

There's always next year, like in 75, 90-93, 99 &

Blue,
The Bills have won 6 of the last 7. Including, a win over the JETS.

They've set the Bills record over the past four games for most points over a four game stretch (remember all those K-Gun days ;)), they held Cleveland to 17 total yds last week and have 5 Special Team TDs.

This is a very dangerous team Blue.

The NFC as a whole is weak this year. Carolina is a perfect example, every pregame show and announcer this past weekend seemed to have a hard-on about the Panthers and their 5 game winning streak. Looking at their schedule you'd have to look long and hard for their last win over a quality team.
