Official Game Thread - Week 16 - Eagles @ Commanders

Im not particularly upset in that scenario....this franchise would still be so far along and ahead of schedule I think I would be fine. Would also mean we had already won one playoff game since Philly would be coming off a 1st round bye.
Not saying it wont hurt in the moment but grand scheme of things...yeah id be ok.

If we were to win at the Linc though....the blood bath in Philly from fans and media would be unprecedented! lol
Detroit will have the bye though
 
RHs Keys to glorious victory
Move McLaurin - Kliff cannot be stubborn and expect him to beat Mitchell the likely DROY
Tyler Biadazz back and 100%
Lattimore following AJ Brown
Keep Barkley under 300 yards
 
Was that a typo?

I hope so, if barkley gets over 300 yards we'll lose by 40.
No its not a typo just trying to be funny while admitting we likely cannot stop the leagues likely MVP, who is just killing it. He had 250 vs the Lambs and only won by 17 so keep the faith.

Actual key to victory may well be him tapping out early because of injury and then stopping Gainwell. Maybe Lattimore can help our D get focused to stop him. Benching BSJ fully and rolling with a street DB instead.
 
For the NFL.com bold prediction article, courtesy of Maurice Jones-Drew:


Jalen Hurts and Jayden Daniels are two of just four quarterbacks this season to have compiled a passer rating of 100-plus while also rushing for 400-plus yards. In their first meeting, back in Week 11 (an Eagles win), the pair combined for two touchdowns, with Hurts rushing for one and the rookie throwing for the other. In the rematch, Daniels elevates his game and scores five total touchdowns (two rushing, three passing) to outduel Hurts and keep the Commanders' playoff aspirations alive.


That is a pretty bold prediction.

Hope it happens, though.
 
We have some visitors at the tailgate!

Gonna be a cold game today. Bundle up amigos
 
The weather is usually warmer over near the Chesapeake bay than it is in my place in Tennessee in the winter but I guess that isn't true today. It's a high of 31-32 there in DC and it's getting up to 45 here today.

My dad called earlier and said it was around 20 degrees in Gloucester VA.
 
A lot of folks thought KJ would play today. Guess not.
I would say something about McCaffrey or Sinnott stepping up but it seems pretty clear they are in Kliff’s doghouse.
