Foles is up there too. But agree, every time Luck does something good, they cut to him talking and just.... nothing happens. It actually might have clipped an eagle talon on the way through. Not sure it would have affected it too much. I'm a bit concerned actually. I have Rams as comfortably the better team. Cowboys though, comfortably in better form... and that worked for the Eagles yesterday. My god what a finish. I'm still blown away.

Latest is he's bruised but will play week 1. Has me worried though looking down the line and seeing Mack coming at you. Two weeks running he's taken heavy hits there. Well done again on tipping fun Macca. Good to get back on the podium.

Wow Eagles. What a wacky end to the year. I've never been in one of those where you're hoping for a win and other results to fall your way to make it. That was fun. From here I'm bullish on Eagles vs Bears. Bears will be warm favourites but look out for the experienced team and QB. Saints won't be stopped on the way to NFC Championship game though. It'll be Rams v Saints easy. And rightly so. Love seeing Steelers miss out too.

Apparently the specific injury (back) will keep him restricted in the way he can move for a few months. Nothing to worry about long term, but for now he can't do what he needs to do. And likely can't for a playoff run.

Word coming through bruised ribs for Foles.
-
NFL
The idea was Foles was going too well to bench anyway. Outdoing Wentz in his current shape. ie... a fully fit Wentz vs a fully fit Foles you go with Wentz. But Foles in better than a Wentz who can't move. Not for nothing, but I actually really like Sudfeld. He's actually an ok player from what little I've seen.

Word is he was gonna get a scan but was unlikely to play again this year. Not sure what Foles out means. Sounds to me like a rib or ribs. Apparently in a lot of pain. And no week off AFL style. Bears go for 2. Weird. But relieved they got it.

Got hit in the chest where Clowney got him last week. Wentz a possibility to come back next week.

Got rid of my subscription. lol Yeah... this second half will be interesting in Bears game to see who's on sideline. Gee it's fun.

NFL
And just like that Rams 4 tds.
-
NFL
Yup. Until the thing is definitively done. And their D is making all the running here. Currently 40 yards in a half by Vikings. So whoever gets through next week will have a big mountain to climb.

Could be wishful thinking on my part but I'm with you. I don't get how you pull a guy who's flying like Trubiski because of the maths of the thing... The only wrinkle there... Who would Nagy want to play more in the first week of playoffs. Vikings or Eagles? Going by what we've seen today, they'd do well to let Vikings win here and smash them in playoffs. Seems a bit wacky though, Div rival, they'd like to just make it simple and end their season now.

Min down by 2 scores Eagles up by 2 scores.... And yet... Rams being up 21-3 means they could end Eagles season. Wow.
-
NFL
Nice work Macca. Gee whiz exciting... Trubiski still in the game, Minnesota an eye watering 16 yards of offense so far. Eagles looking the better team so far against Skins.

NFL
Perhaps. A decent RB is worth a lot less than a young MVP proven QB. Eagles gave up 2 firsts and a truckload more to go up 6 picks in his draft year. Not only that but Giants would get the franchise guy they need from within their own division. Wentz will still be throwing the ball when Barkley declines. It's a silly deal of course, but intriguing mostly because it's just so win-win.

Yeah. There's even talk now of franchise tagging Foles to trade him. Sounds too risky and wacky for me. There's a guy who's the biggest Philly firebrand in their local radio stations who's gone from hating Foles for the last few years to grudgingly accepting him in the superbowl to now actively calling for him to be kept on and to trade Wentz. I get the thinking... trade Wentz for Barkley and pick 1, keep Foles on cheap money, draft a new QB in 5 years. But it's silly. When you have a player like Wentz you don't move away from him.
-
NFL
From what I can see, Skins-Eagles, Rams-49ers and Vikings-Bears all on at the 4.25 slot. So Monday morning. But they'll know where they're at mid game. If Rams are 3 TDs up, Bears could take their foot off the pedal, bench Trubiski, and watch Bears end Eagles season.

NFL
It's a fun, albeit "meh" way of finishing off the year. Dirty feeling. Eagles make playoffs, they're not getting past the Div game at best. Bears, Saints, Rams all comfortably better. Dallas swept too. Not to play it down though. A lot of clubs would love to be reigning champs with a week 17 chance. And the Foles thing has reached fever pitch. A little background from your friendly neighbourhood thread starter... I got into Eagles cos of a Philly tragic (we traded.... I follow Eagles and Phillies, he follows Aussie cricket team and Demons)... He's the biggest Wentz guy going. Got onto him well before I did. And he actually wants to trade Wentz and keep Foles. I said "tell him he's dreaming"... he didn't get the reference.

re: Texans Eagles... Pretty good going Macca.

I read something a while back about the fact Donald should win it. Or, if I remember correctly, if he doesnโt then a DT never will. Something along those lines. Iโd love to see that tbh.

Yeah Mahomes for me, and well deserved. Gee what a golden age we're in.
