Eagles 07/08 Schedule released

The past two years, my wife's birthday has fallen on or immediately adjacent to a Dallas weekend.  This year, the closest weekends are a bye and the Jets game, not nearly as can't-miss.

I also was afraid I'd miss the Sept 30 game because I'll be at the Phillies last game.  I don't particularly care about the Phillies, so I'm glad the Eagles game it at night.

And at face value, there seems to be nothing too onerous about the schedule.  Away at Dallas and NO back to back is tough, but there's no "three divisional games on the road" type of thing that jumps out at me.

11-5

The road away games are alot more evenly spread out than last year. I agree that Dallas and New Orleans back to back on the road looks tough, but then again Dallas, NYG, & Skins back to back to back looked alot worse last year...

 call me biased, but i don't think dallas will be any better next year; can someone show me how the redskins have improved? ( and it has to be more than free agent signings)... There is just NO WAY that the giants are any better than last year... so i guess its back to us and dallas.
that dec. 16th game will be big. I'm surpised that they come to us first again.

BG, i know what you said about being optimistic, but just like last year, we have a hell of a shot at being 5-0 to start the season.

To me, the make or break part of the season is New England through Dallas... we win 3 outta 4 and i think we get a bye

My early prediction is 11-5, BleedGreen, losses against the Giants in week 4 (let-down after hot start) at New England, at New Orleans, at Minnesota and final week vs. Buffalo (reid sits the entire team since division is a wrap).

Any predictions Bleed Green?

13-3

Losses: NE, NO, and a washington letdown on 11/11

here's one that might make you sick... i said washington because I think other than 5, they have the division's best quarterback... Maybe some people are still hyped about Romo, but I think Romo is gonna be dallas's version of bobby hoying...

on a different note.... seriously, can you imagine the turmoil in dallas this year with OD and Good Ole Softie - Wade Phillips!

Everyone remembers the botched snap from Romo, but he had fumblitis for a couple of weeks going into that. Why no Cowboys coaches/fans have caught on to the fact that the guy just isn't good yet is beyond me.
