I agree Flatline.
I don't see how an 8-7-1 football team ends up on primetime Sunday night (Raiders), Monday night primetime (Chiefs), and Monday night primetime (Eagles) ALL before the halfway point of the season.
One thing's for sure.
We aren't getting the breaks on the field the Eagles are.
61 yard walk off field goal by an undrafted rookie against the Giants?
Close shave win against the 0-4 Chargers.
The phantom fumble/touchdown against Cousins and the Redskins.
Well, things tend to even out over 16 games.
The Cowboys, Redskins and Giants have all suffered from early injuries. The Eagles have been healthy and will likely lose some guys along the way.
They are not an especially deep team.
We will see how they end up in December.
Eagles have ALWAYS had this strange thing about luck.
And that's not exaggerated, or un-founded, or a knee-jerk reaction.
For as long as I can remember, they always get a ball that has a lucky bounce right in their hands, and that's not just literally, but figuratively, and overall.
If there was a distinction for the luckiest team in sports, it would be them.
(except for when it calls for winning a Lombardi !)
