    If Dallas wins sun afternoon will the eagles be motivated to LOSE

    Why beat washington and allow the team that just eliminated you yesterday to make the playoffs? Just sayin..

    They won’t lose on purpose. These guys have contracts to worry about. Their $ are way more important than worrying about the Cowboys

    Because they are professionals so losing on purpose would be a bitch move....but they are the eagles so bitch moves make sense for that city

    Eagles will win the game since there is absolutely no pressure on them since they are already eliminated. When it was do or die yesterday they shit the bed.

    I don't buy it. Guys are playing for jobs and Was-Phi is as big as Dal-Phi; they're not going to lay down.

    Eagles weren't gonna make it anyways

    As far as them throwing the game, ask the Jets.

    Its a divisional game, the Eagles would be happy to be the ones to knock out the Redskins. They'll be lose with nothing to lose. Look for Hurts to have a huge game.

    I expect questionable flags against Washington and the giants. Dallas wins the division

    It would have to be a hell of a fix if Taylor Heinicke is starting for Washington.

    My initial lean here is Eagles winning this game

    However, the main concern would be the potential to screw the Divisional winning team Futures bets, placed before the season began

    Dallas was the favorite at -200 or higher -230 range

    Washington, I don't have the number, but was anybody putting money on this team to win the NFC East ?

    For reference, Philadelphia was the second favorite around +100 odds before the season

    Looks like Alex Smith is going to start; if he and Terry McLaurin are healthy, the Redskins will win.

    If NFL wants Cowboys in the playoffs they will pay money under the table for Eagles to win. The TV networks will make the call. NFL is an entertainment business that wants to make money.

    Here’s one thing I will say. Eagles management cares as much about their wins as Dallas losses They literally draft players to steal from Dallas every year. Hurts, Goddert and others. They signed Demarco Murray years ago for same reason. They are obsessed with it and it’s stupid.

    So, they will want to lose as an organization but the players will play to win. If their front office could put half the team in Covid protocol, they would.

    Players don't lay down generally. Playing for jobs, plus everything is on tape. Management can lay down by sitting players and playing sub premium lineups.
