NFL Scores, Schedule and Blog Posts - SB Nation

There's two major matchups of interest to Eagles fans today. The big one is Tampa Bay at the Atlanta Falcons. A Falcon loss today is all the Eagles need to regain full control over their own destiny. If Atlanta loses and the Eagles win out they absolutely will be in the playoffs.

So, go Bucs!

The other game of interest is of course the Sunday night division battle in Dallas between the Cowboys and Giants. The Eagles don't need Dallas to lose since a win over them in week 17 would vault them over the Cowboys if both teams win out, but still a little breathing room is always nice. A loss by Dallas would drop them to 8-6 and behind the Eagles in the wildcard race. The Eagles would also take over second place in the NFC east.

So, go Giants!

Playoff Implications Create Strange Bedfellows

I can’t believe I have to root for the Bucs…

And I can’t wait to watch the post-game interviews if Dallas loses tonight.

I find it a little less distasteful to root for the Bucs than I used to because of Garcia.

And as for Giants-Cowboys, I think I Giants’ win, especially if TO only has a handful of catches, sets off the TO-plosion. Tick Tick Tick…BOOM.

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

Well, if TB loses here, Eagles can still force their way in with an ATL loss against Minn OR a TB loss against SD
I find it highly unlikely ATL would lose to STL or TB to Oakland in the last week.

Around here...

They keep promoting this DC-Baltimore synergy in which the tv stations always air the other’s games. Hence, Baltimore’s Fox 45 will be showing Skins-Bungles instead of a good game like Tampa/Atlanta. Likewise, DC CBS Ch. 9 will always show Ravens instead of showing a better game. Luckily, Steelers/Ravens is a ‘good’ game – at least from a standpoint of records; I think it will be ugly. So I get to decide at 1 between Wsh/Cin or Buff/NYJ.

What a choice.

Cincy 7, Washington 0

On what I think was one of the best play-action bootleg sells I have ever seen. All 11 Redskins were going to the RB while the QB just ran around to the end zone untouched.

over on Big Blue View, and I figure we share mutual dislike of the Redskins, allow me to say that they look awful. What the hell happened to Portis, who was carrying my fantasy team early on! Oh well, they’re gonna lose to the Bengals and be pretty much eliminated from playoff contention, and all those asses I go to school with (I’m in law school in DC) will finally be shut up.

…for now about 20 years (although I am now technically closer to Baltimore in this little ‘vortex’ between the two cities). I loathe them and hope they lose every week. Zorn will be fired if the Skins don’t make it.

Bigger problem is that Atlanta’s only got Minnesota left away. They get a supersoft game for last game of the year against StL at home.

StL could pull something out. They’ve got their key offensive players healthy now. The problem is that their defense and Olines suck.

scenarios involving eagles winning out

Dallas and Wash are out of the Eagles’ way if Eagles win out no matter what, so things not under their control would be…

Carolina would have to lose all three remaining games (denver, at giants, at NO)

IF TB loses today, they would have to lose one to SD or Oakland.
IF Atl wins today, they would have to lose one to Minn or StL.

IF TB wins today/ATL loses today, the Eagles control their own destin

as an addendum to that, carolina would have to lose all three games left while TB or ATL (but not both) would have to go 11-5 and win the division. If both TB and ATL go 11-5, eagles are screwed

Well, charity case yes, but even if Atl wins today, there are 4 chances for the eagles to go ahead .of Atl or the Bucs, and the odds of them winning all 4 games isn’t that great in the NFL.

Atlanta’s been wildly inconsistent this year against better teams in the NFL, and TB will miss Garcia and Earnest Graham.

I’d like to point out that all of Washington’s wins were extremely close even against Detroit and Cleveland, and highly dependent on the run game to control the clock. Teams adjusted to Campbell and Portis and Washington hasn’t figured it out. Add coaching breakdown in the last week or so, and you have a recipe for disaster.

This team was overhyped.

i live in canton about 3 miles away. i can see the stadium from the roof top deck. Cant hear the crowd, but i can usually see the fireworks….

That’s the way it was for me growing up in College Park with Byrd Stadium at the U of MD. Of course, the only fireworks they had was the AD firing the coaches after another 3-8 season.

I hate listening to John Madden call a Cowboys game. “There’s not many QBs who could pick it up and make that throw.”

There aren’t many QBs who fumble as much as Tony Romo, either, John.

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

Listening to Madden is something I am utterly incapable of doing. My favorite Madden line was from Madden NFL ’99:

He knew where he had to go, and he got there.

Such genius.
