The optimistic side of the loss...nothing lost

NFC loss which doesn't hurt us.  

Browns lost. 

Raiders lost 

And pulling for a chiefs loss. 

 

Net net is we still lead for wildcard spot with a very winnable game next week.  

 

Playoffs are still in our control and now we just need to face some adversity for the first time...

Good view point. On the contrary we did lose another game on NE as they now stand 8-0 to our 5-2. Of course many will say we aren’t going to win the division against an all time great NE defense and efficient offense but there’s still 9 weeks left.

Ya.   I'm feeling the wildcard unless someone proves to me that the Pat's are actually beatable.

It’s the NFL almost every team has one of these games a year. Eagles played well. It’s not like they are a nobody. They beat the Packers and have been in every game but the cowboys game. 
 

Their weakness was helped by the weather today. 
 

Let’s beat Washington and get to 6-2

I’ve read before that NFC losses help you make the playoffs.

I don't believe it.  If more of your wins are AFC wins, It gives a slight advantage in terms of tie breakers for a wild card spot, but a loss is never better than a win.

They are good for playoff births, but also comp picks. Vegas is studying that. Spleen health is a side affect still being studied by the CDC in Atlanta.

Getting beat down like that in your own backyard is humiliating.  We’ll see if this team is different with how they respond to adversity with a very beatable opponent.  Lord knows they didn’t respond well today after that fumble.


  Need another stretch of opponents who will win 2 or 3 games this year

this was their Super Bowl.   Hats off to them.


That’s funny 

 

8 wins can take that division

they’re probably confused why there wasn’t  600 cameramen on the sidelines, an extravagant halftime show, and a trophy at the end.


they played well and took a road win off a team highly rated by the experts
