N/S Is Philly a Serious Threat? (1 Viewer)

[Saintsfan8989]

If they win out, they get in as a wild card (Cowboys likely win the division). They are loaded on both sides of the ball. Are they to be feared? Or will they be out before the NFC title game?

 

[Loose Cannon]

No

 

[efil4stnias]

Define loaded.

 

[St. Geezy]

Based on the assumption of the Saints having HFA, the only threats I see are LA and KC.

No. They win one big game and everyone has them in the SB again.

They will lose tomorrow.

Define loaded.

They're # 2 and 3 receivers would be number 1's on most teams. They're TE is much much better than ours. They have Cox and Lane Johnson too.

They are loaded in front seven and the secondary which is doing better. Jenkins is the heart and soul of the backfield. The offense has picked it up due to Foles stepping in they showed (I believe it was Chris Long that made a Nick Foles "shrine" in his locker.

Another point they made was that Foles has brought Jefferies back and he is the deep threat playmaker Wentz went Ertz big difference. I think they are going to pick it up due to Foles bein in there he gives that team confidence. I see why they went with Wentz but if Foles is in there we are talking much differently about the Eagles.

They’re a sneaky team and they are much better with Foles instead of an injured Wentz. I think they can sneak into the playoffs and maybe upset a team in the wildcard round

For Philly to get in, they'd need to win out, and have Minnesota or Seattle lose out.

For Philly to get in, they'd need to win out, and have Minnesota or Seattle lose out.

I think Minny only needs to lose once if Philly wins out.

They got lucky on two jump balls last week or they would have lost. That model of winning can't be sustained in the NFL. Please bring them back to the dome....

 

[Saint Spud]

I wouldn't dismiss them. If they go on enough of a run to get to the divisional round, it's probably because they've figured some things out.

But I'm not as concerned about them as I would be about, say, Seattle (and maybe even Minnesota).

 

[Tholal]

The team that we beat by 41 points just over a month ago?!?

 

[SweetT]

The only NFC team that scares me is the Bears and even then I like our chances against them.

 

[Heartbreak Kid]

If philly gets into the post season they’ll be a threat. They have had a championship hangover no doubt. But it seems they have started to get things back on track. I always get concerned with teams who warm up in the last month of the regular season.

Cannot put a value on how important it is to have ol “Mo” on your side for the playoffs.
