    Eagles are the team of destiny this year

    They just have the look. I'm a Philadelphia guy but usually don't get too caught up in the hype. This team is legit though and the NFC is weak especially with Rodgers out.

    I thought they'd win the division this year but they're even better than I expected. Wentz is a Super Bowl caliber quarterback. He has poise and command. The defense is top 10 in the league.

    Birds are going to the Super Bowl and just might win it all.

    December 3 at Seattle 830 pm. Let's see how that game plays out. Might be the NFC home field game.

    They really don't have many weaknesses. Look like the team to beat in the NFC so far. Rodgers gone. Seahawks not great. Saints, eh. Dak will choke. Falcons are the fckin Falcons. I don't know who beats them at this point, but someone may emerge. Rams, no clue there. And that damn kicker is automatic to hit it down the middle.

    I would say they're the NFC favorite as of this moment.

    We'll see how they play moving forward without Jason Peters.

    Eagles SHOULD be 8-1 heading into the bye. They could probably lose at Seattle and still finish with a better record. Long way to go though.

    As long as Wentz and Ertz can avoid injury, this team is going far.

    Vikings D holds them to under 17 pts....

    That'd be a game.

    MN does not miss tackles or sacks and gives up no home run balls.

    Seattle will cause him fits too....he is certainly slippery back there but I'm not convinced this is anything more than too many fluke plays going Philly way and a revert to the norm is coming.

    Exactly. San Fran next week then a floundering Denver team. Both at home.

    They are favored to win the NFC but I can't back first time qb's in the NFL playoffs especially with guys like Wilson and Brees on the other team.

    You do realize these teams stink right? Washington cant stop anyone and are mistake waiting to happen almost as bad as Cleveland. Carolina isn't nothing as u saw when they lost to a horrible Chicago team and Arizona is more pathetic than the latter two. Lets see what finally happens when they face a good defense. Than again are there any?

    Brees is washed. Wilson is good but that offense hasn't looked great.

    Every now and then a young QB comes along who just has it. Wentz looks to be that guy. Let's face it, outside of Brady and Rodgers there's not many great QBs in this league right now.

    Brees is still better than most qb's in the nfl

    Their best corner (Darby) has been out since week 1 and is due back next week. Cox also missed time and is now healthy

    He won a playoff game in Philly. He can do it again.

    Lol yea I remember the game bro. Wasn't that long ago. That eagles team had nick foles at QB. You remember that right? Also took a Darren sproles kickoff return at the end of the game to put the saints in FG position. Ugly game. Brees was lousy.

    Nick Foles was God that year. Until that game at least.

    Lets see what happens. I think the saints might get homefield. I'm just glad the packers are out of the equation. They were just garbage anyways. Rodgers holding up the franchise while the rest of the team stinks.

    Nah. I have no problem saying when I think they'll lose. I'm looking at this team objectively and it's clear they are very good.
