what a fucking play by wilson

[MAGAmobile]

Yeah refs.. how they missed it. No idea.

Got away with a forward pass to score. Glad we're up, but not with refs like this.

[Darth Belichick]

Eagles were conservative on that challenge because of the lost one earlier. Too bad, they would have won easily. Bad play by the refs.

[xskarma]

Wilson delivering some magic of his own (including some forward pass magic passed the line of scrimage).

Let's see if the Eagles can answer.

[PokeKitty]

yeah that fumble cost eagle the game

[xskarma]

Wentz decidedly less magical there.

[Crackleslap]

Fucking Eagles. Needed them to win to keep us level with the Seahawks but win on tiebreakers but no, they had to shit the bed.

The whole league is conspiring against you to keep you out of the playoffs.





(They really are!)

I'm just salty about how difficult our schedule has been this season apparently. Urg.

[MAGAmobile]

That ends it.

Yep. League stacks the deck against you by making you play against the other teams that ended the season at your position in the division. Then on top of that will typically make your schedule harder if you just had a really good season (more road games in a row, difficult opponents on short weeks, several games against difficult opponents at the very start or the very end of the season).

They like to enforce parity as much as they can. That's why it's so impressive when you get teams like the Seahawks and Steelers and Broncos and Patriots that continue to dominate year after year.

eagles exposed

eagles exposed

Well, depends. Exposed sounds like the Eagles are bad. They're not. But they made BIG mistakes today, both coaching and playing, and they will need to look at themselves and improve.

And they'll need to do it quickly, cause next week they are at the Rams, who have been pretty freaking hot themselves this season.



I will say this though, if they play like this against the Rams, they'll lose again and then saying they've been "exposed" is a lot more reasonable. Right now I'd go with "Eagles have come back down to earth".

[THE Bigzoman]

This is the eagles first game against a team with a winning record. It's week 13. They will be one and done in the playoffs.

Panthers and Cheifs.


Eagles just got humbled hard. Nobody wants to see them come postseason though.

Watch.

Well said. Saying they're exposed after one game is silly. I guess the Saints were exposed last week too? And the Patriots in week 1? Let's see how they rebound next week before you throw stupid buzz words around.

I thought this game was closer than the score. Take away some of those silly mistakes (fumble in the endzone, not challenging the forward pass) and it looks a lot different. The outcome may be the same though.

Tends to happen as a division champ.

Have fun against Brees and Co this thursday.

You know today was the 28th meeting between the vikings and falcons.

Today is december 3rd.

28-3.

A conspiracy, indeed!

[MAGAmobile]

Crucial win for sure. Need Eagles to show up next week and Bortles to be what we expect him to be.

[Vetali]

Games like that bolsters my reasoning to keep Bevell around. Just absolutely masterful game planning and routes. Also helps Wilson killed the Eagles hopes and dreams on cover 0 blitzes.


Fire Tom Cable though.

[xskarma]

Next week will be amazing.


Falcons at Saints on Thursday.

Vikings at Panthers early

Raiders at Chiefs early

Seahawks at Jags afternoon

Eagles at Rams afternoon

Ravens at Steelers Sunday night.


That's probably the best line up of the whole year. (and I get to watch all of it cause Patriots don't play till Monday)

[cordrann]

Panthers and Cheifs.

Watch.

Current nfc playoff picture:
Vikings
Eagles
Rams
Saints
Seahawks
Panthers

Only team I'd rather see is the Panthers on one of their today we randomly look like garbage on offense bad days.
