Eagles' 2023 Divisional Playoff GDT: 01/21/23 Giants(9-7-1) @ Eagles(14-3) - 8:15P

Siposs - maybe back for the NFC title game if they win. I think it is a mistake to go with Kern another week
Maddox - not likely to play
Lane - obviously is going to try, but he won't be anywhere near 100% and if they are facing Parsons/Dallas - big problem
Jalen will still be sore, but if they don't use their normal offense, they will have very little chance, especially if it is Dallas

If the Giants upset Minn, then that changes things.

You make it sound like the bye week is going to beat the Eagles right out of the playoffs.

They are the #1 seed for a reason. Yes. I get injuries are an issue. Same thing happened 5 years ago when Peters, Wentz and Sproles went down and it was the end of the world with Foles in the last two game, and the Eagles playing at 50% after locking up #1 then...

Foles will never win a playoff game!
We need to reshuffle the offensive line!
Eagles can't run screen plays anymore!
We can't return punts!
How dare Fletcher Cox miss an OTA!

Eagles will have to improvise, adapt, and overcome. They can beat whoever they face. It's all about plan and execution.

Only team thats going to beat the Eagles, is the Eagles making their own mistakes. We've seen that this year in every loss...

I don't think that the Cowboys are a good match-up for the Eagles, though a lot of fans want them. Eagles are going to have to score 30 or 40+

Lane practiced today

"I'm playing next week" ~ @LaneJohnson65

I guess he rubbed some dirt on it...

Who does everyone want/not want to play next week? Tampa is hands down the weakest team left and Eagles will roll them if things fall that way, but chances are very low that Dallas would lose that game. Same with the 49ers beating the Seahawks.

That leaves Giants vs Vikings as possibly the most important game of the weekend in determining who the Eagles will play. Vikings are frauds and the Giants will probably win that game. Which would leave the Eagles playing the Giants next week, who, IMO, are the toughest match-up for us. Divisional opponent, well coached, we beat them twice, would have probably lost had the starters played week 18.

1) Seattle (no chance)
2) Tampa
3) Giants
4 Cowboys

Not good karma to root to get a certain opponent.
I think I'd say that, of the possibilities:
-- Dallas has the most talent
-- Tampa has a defense that could alter the gameplan + the GOAT QB
-- Giants would go into game hungry and with zero to lose

Game will probably be Saturday.

I'd much rather play the Giants than the Cowboys, but the Giants look a lot better than they did when the Eagles crushed them.

Eagles offense needs to dominate their D

8:15 Saturday confirmed

[BelmontShore]

Damn. The fam isn't gonna be happy to hear about a 2:15am start. That's a shame, they wanted to watch.

This puts a damper on my day drinking. lol

Hurts not listed on the injury report

I am disappointed that they did not try to find a better punter. Hopefully the need to punt is minimal.
