This sounds stupid but imma true Eagles fan and i just wanna tell the city of Philly not to lose hope,
The Eagels in order to at least enter the playoffs must end up 9-7 sounds ridiculous right?
But obv. they gotta win all there games, Giants must end up 8-8, Cowboys must also end up 8-8 and Redskins gotta end up 5-11.
But if you do believe in miracles we just gotta hope that this cycle happens lets go!!! #BelieveInGreen #EaglesNation!!!

I seriously can't figure out for the life of me why any fan would want this Eagles team to make the playoffs?

-No Super Bowl
-Chance that Andy and friends stay
-We would get destroyed by pretty much anybody

The only thing more confusing is that some people still think we're not an awful team.  Maybe you just haven't seen enough awful teams to spot one, but trust me.  I would bet my car that at most we win 2 more games this year if I were a betting man.

if they made the playoff how could you guarantee they wouldnt win the SB

the giants got in and won it all last year....the same giants who lost to a 5-11 skins team twice

If you can't answer this question with what you've seen in the games this year, than I can't help you out.
To make it simple:  We're a bad team with even worse coaching and one of the worst injury bugs I've ever seen.  We are not the Giants, and we sure as hell don't have an Eli.

Let it go already,there will be no playoffs for this sorry excuse of a team.I know you think you sound optimistic but you don't....you sound like a fool.What makes you think this team is capable of going 9-7? They just got destroyed by a 3-6 team in case you didn't notice...lol

My goodness! Please stop comparing this Eagles team to the Giants of before. This team DOESN’T GET TURNOVERS, PLAY DEFENSE, GET SACKS, OR MAKE PLAYS. This team doesn’t have a quarterback who is having a great season especially in the 4th quarter. This team doesn’t have a coach who is willing to run the football on a regular basis. This team rarely wins games against teams with winning records outside of their own division.  This team has a practice squad offensive line. This team has already given up on this coach weeks ago. Players are already talking about the end of Reid’s era.

http://www.philly.co...-Andy-Reid.html

This team has been blown out by the Saints, Cowboys, Cardinals, and the Redskins ALL NOW HOLD TIE BREAKERS AGAINST THE EAGLES.  Their 3 wins have been by a combined 4 points. The Eagles best player has been knocked out, because the coach wanted to run him late in a meaningless game. They haven’t scored a touchdown in 6 quarters. They haven’t had a turnover since Juan was fired. Wasting time hoping for unrealistic miracles will only set this team back. Right now they need to be focusing on the future.  The future doesn’t have Andy Reid in it, nor does it have many of these overpriced veterans and players who have quit.

OP, It's wishful thinking. C'mom man this teams sucks big ones. They stink and they are worse team in the NFL.  The Eagles are not going to win another game this season.  Th Effen Deadskins kicked thier arses as bad as they are.  Dude stop smoking that bad stuff, it'll make you write ish like this.

I'd be surprised if this team wins even 1 more game before the end of the season.

Everyone loves the first part, but the second part really relates to us at this point

Game? I want to score a TD on offense and see our defense get a turnover. One step at a time here. LOL

the I-don't-give-an-effing-crap-about-reality crowd will never die, apparently, no matter how obvious the stupidity and utter futility of their misplaced loyalty is to everyone else.

Pathetic.

Believe it or not, there is Hope but it's a long shot.  1st The Eagles must win the rest of their games.  The same way we just lost 6 in a row, we now must win 6 in a Row.  Here's everyone schedules:

Eagles:
Carolina
Dallas
Tampa
Cincy
Was
Giants

Giants:
Greenbay
Was
Saints
ATL
B-More
Philly

Cowboys:
Redskins
Washington
Philly
Cincy
Saints
Washington

Redskins:
Cowboys
Giants
B-more
Browns
Philly
Dallas


Here's what we know.  The Division Winner will most likely be 9-7 just like last year.  Maybe even 8-8. The Giants schedule is brutal, I can see them losing 3 games easily.  Dallas and Skins schedule isn't as bad but there are a lot of division games so anything can happen.  The point is even though it's a Long shot, the Season would have to basically play out like this for us to get in the Playoffs cause the Wild Card is gone, it's win the Divsion or go home:

Eagles 9-7 (Win all last 6 games)
Giants 9-7 (3-3 lose tiebreaker to Eagles)
Dallas 8-8 (3-3)
Redskins 7-9 (3-3)

The Eagles can still win the Division at 8-8 if the Giants go 2-4 and the Eagles go 5-1 but they cannot lose to an NFC foe, there only loss will have to come from Cincy. Call me crazy but our schedule if they can pull it together is possible for us to sweep but this team has to show more fire.  4 years ago in the 2008 season the eagles were 5-5-1 and all but out of the playoffs.  They pulled it together and went on a magical run.  It's never over till it's over.  The problem now is the Eagles have put themselves in a corner, they cannot lose a game.

with the horrible start to this season the Eagles dont deserve to be in the playoffs
playoffs IMO are for teams who play their hearts out ALL season long not just part of it.

It ain't over till it's over and it ain't over.  It starts with beating the Panthers.
I would never believe the Eagles could loose 6 in a row, but...
I believe they can win 6 in row.

Lets try simple math.  We give up 26 points a game and we score 16.  Do you really see that amounting to anymore wins this year?

A team as talented as this one...oh wait...they aren't talented. Let's try that again.

A team as selfish as this one, there's no chance in hell they win more than 6 games.
