I think you can make a legit argument for this year's team being the most talented squad we've seen. What do you think?
Start planning the parade!
Got a legitimate shot but getting through the NFC is going to be brutal.
Hopefully the NFC North all beat each other up and we get these 3 wins to get the #1 seed. Then you can get lucky with a wild card upset and win an easy divisional game (see New York Giants 2022). Then it's one win to the Super Bowl. And pray for no ridiculous holding calls (or just blow them out).
I do feel worried about this Washington game, with all the #1 in power rankings stuff. Team is hopefully not getting high on their own supply.
I am not scared of travelling to Detroit next month if need be.
have a safe trip!
Trying to think....what are the 4 best Dallas rosters of the 21'st century? Which years would you go with and how much would they lose by to each of these Eagles teams?

I just think we can't all start sucking each other's you know what's just yet. That team was the best team in the league that year - led in EPA/play and DVOA by like a mile. The only reason that loss doesn't hurt more is because of the 2017 team, but sans that fumble by Hurts or ticky tack PI by Bradberry it's not even a question imo.
The more optimistic part of this 2024 team is it feels less one hit wonder because it's so young.

EPA basically measures the results of how well a team completes a play vs the expected outcome of that play.
And DVOA judges how good a team is compared to all others in the league based on down and distance.
So both are adjusted for the situation to basically quantify context, which imo means a lot. They're sorta the NFL equivalent of WAR so I can see why you old heads get all up in arms about them

Sounds like they wanted the 2k yard mark, outside of that I think they play a quarter maybe a half next week. But they're locked into the 2 seed now so they have to treat next week like a bye as much as possible.
Tanner McKee starting the playoff game for you guys? He's got a 156.3 lifetime passer rating and a lifetime QBR of 96.8. 50% of his career throws go for TDs.
If AJ Brown threw that ball into the crowd in LA they'd have to file a lawsuit to get it back.
Don't play anyone next week. Let Tanner throw for 4 TD's then trade him to the Giants for their 1st rounder.

Unfortunately for youze guyz, the Giants by virtue of their resounding win yesterday will be trading their first rounder to the Patriots along with their 2026 first rounder and a lot more draft capital to move back up to #1 and draft Shadeur Sanders who will of course then be a bust.

I love having that team in this division.
If the NFL was operating like it used to, with a normal amount of regular season games and playoff teams, and 2 seeds getting byes, I might considering playing Bark for the first half next week. But nah, you gotta treat this week as a glorified bye and let those Giants screw themselves further with a second win in a row.
Who do you guys want to see? Packers or Washington?
Definitely would rather play the Redskins but the Packers seem to be a bit fraudulent against the top notch squads. Even Week 1 before the Eagles really got it going it seemed imminent they'd take the game over.

Packers definitely look like frauds. 0-5 vs Eagles, Lions and Vikings. 2 wins vs playoff teams, Rams and Texans. Rams were without both Kupp and Nakua for that game.
Pickett showed some toughness. Still not a big fan of his but gutty effort by him.
I think both Pack and Commanders are pretty similar. I'd take my changes with a rookie QB over a guy who played in the playoffs last year although Daniels does look pretty good.
and have a bad feeling the Eagles end up as the stupid Monday night playoff game.
Micah Parsons “if you take away the scoreboard, it was really about five plays that decided the game.” Yes this idiot said this about a 41-7 loss. That’s some Forty Whiners level stupidity there.
Well, he's right. Take away 5 Eagles TDs and Dallas wins 7-6. Dude knows his stuff.
that he does 👍

The more optimistic part of this 2024 team is it feels less one hit wonder because it's so young.
I just like this roster the best. I believe they've done better against winning teams than the '22 team did as well.
The "not a one hit wonder thing" is a good point too. Lot of young talent for sure.
