This defensive performance is borderline shocking. Romo has been under pressure all game, their top Oline is being dominated. If the Eagles could ever get the defense going, they are major players with Sanchez at the helm for the Vince Lombardi trophy.
I said final nail Your nail is like, what, the 2nd nail? Right after his defensive fetish and right before 12 men on the field/wasted timeouts.
With the exception that the Lombardi portion was from you and not me, yep. I've always given kudos where kudos was truly deserved, and at this point he deserves Kudos. If Sanchez keeps having games like this the Eagles can go far, 0 turnovers and being efficient.
They can win the Super Bowl, even without the defense. It just would depend on their Super Bowl path. I do not believe they can win in Lambeau but they might not have to go their if Detroit wins that division or, Philly ends up with more wins. Ideally I want Arizona as the #1, Philly #2, Lions #3, but if Philly ends up as the #3, then obviously I want Detroit at #2......
The first step toward doing that is to get a new owner. That's how the Red Sox and Patriots turned it around.
Horse way ahead of the cart. The Eagles don't need this good of a defense with McCoy and company on the Eagles, McCoy is the the star of this offense. I'm actually wondering if Romo's back is hurting, he's floating a lot of passes (this does not take away from what the Defense has done because they've hit him a number of times today) but Romo did crack a couple bones a couple of weeks ago. But like the Eagles the Cowboys are dependent on their Running game in order to win and the Eagles controlled the Dallas Running game.
Sanchez is basically still the same guy. Just don't fuck up and let the rest of the team take care of business. They'll get bounced first round if they even make the playoffs. Seattle will curb stomp them and Dallas will have their revenge
I doubt seattle will curb stomp them at philly and i doubt these cowboys will beat them at philly bit even if that happens they will still only have 5 losses.
2 division losses for Dallas , Zero for Eagles -- Pretty much a done deal for Eagles even if Dallas beats them next time around.
Well unfortunately I was one of those who cursed the Jets when they got rid of Sanchez, so the Jets wont win a Super Bowl until I am dead, which sucks considering I am a Jets fan =/.
They could easily lose three of their last four games. 10-6 may not be enough in the NFC, especially since they've already lost to Green Bay, San Francisco, Arizona, and perhaps Seattle next week.
Crazy how things have shifted, the Eagles looked like frauds early on despite their hot start, while Dallas looked like a solid football team. Since the QB change, the Eagles look like the best team in the Division while Dallas looks like they are coming apart. Still games to be played, I never thought I would go to a Giants game but if that Eagles @ Giants game week 17 is meaningful, I might have to go, only if Sanchez is starting.
They're going to be favorites for 3 of those 4 last games (that game being against seattle at philly which wouldn't shock anyone if they won it) so I don't see it being easily more like unlikely. The giant and redskins are terrible and they just slaughter dallas at dallas.
