Great game today...unless you are Jimbo or a Cowboys fan. Good defensive battle to start, Eagles pulled away in the end, McNabb was solid, Carter just couldn't get the ball to his WRs. Cowboys will probably need to win their final 3 games to get into the playoffs.
Now the Eagles have to worry about the Rams. If the Rams win tomorrow night (and they should), they will be in the playoffs as well. I'm not sure of how the tiebreaker would work in the case of home-field advantage, but here's what we would have:
Eagles
--10-3
--4-1 in the NFC East
--8-2 against the NFC
Rams (assuming they win tomorrow)
--10-3
--3-2 in the NFC West
--7-3 against the NFC
The Eagles have a tough game against the Dolphins, followed by San Francisco here in Philadelphia and then they finish up in Washington.
The Rams have Seattle in St. Louis next week, followed by Cincinnati at home then they finish in Detroit.
Advantage: Rams
Will the Chiefs be the first 15-1 team since the '98 Vikings? And will they make the Super Bowl unlike that Vikings team? Could this be an I-70 Bowl deep in the heart of Texas?
The one Super Bowl combination that I don't want to see happen: Baltimore vs. St. Louis
