HUH?? Striking Distance?? The man has clearly lost his mind and is talking crazy. Why is he trying to still say they is hope when there is nONE?? Even if the Eagles has won, they still would have been a SLIM chance of going to the playoffs now it's even slimmer with a 3-7 NFC conference record

Oh come on now Soloman, if they win all of their games and every other team collapses they're a shoe-in!

That's FALSE because they only have 2 NFC games left and have a 3-7 NFC conference record. Which is why the loss to Seattle and the Giants were HUGE losses because instead of 5-5 in the conferene with a 7-6 record, they are 5-8 with a 3-7 record in the conference which means it's OVER

Andy is a good man, he just says some very goofy things sometimes. Lets face it, I have been saying the seasons over for a while now, although it is still mathematically possible to make the playoffs, it would take about 1001 combinations of long shot scenarios for that to happen.

Howard Eskin was saying that if the Vikes win tonight the Eagles are eliminated. I'm trying to confirm it

I didn't look at the 2nd half because I thought the Bears won. I wonder if Mcnabb will start he last 2 games

I mean I know it's different not being in the playoffs this season because Mcnabb only missed 2 games. You probably didn't feel as sad in 2005 since Mcnabb had a season ending injury. Honestly, I never expected he Eagles to missed the playoffs when Mcnabb is playing 90% of the Games

The eagles have lots of problems right now... QB contraversy (i still say mcnabb will not be back next year)..i don't care what anyone says. I know the hidden messages the eagles management gives, i have been a fan long enough to be able to pick this stuff out. They need a SS, a true number 1 WR, just to name a few.

hey truly were an enigma this year, but I can assure you they will be back next year. They beat dallas IN dallas, they nearly beat the pats they gave the game to the packers opening day., yet they lost to sh*t teams like the giants, the bears etc etc. it truly baffles me

Yeah the shock of the Eagles Season was Brian Griese 97 yd winning TD drive. If that game was in Chicago he would have thrown a INT-lol
