"You would think that the Eagles would be 6-3 and the Giants would be 3-6 at this point but that's not the case"
Never in my life have I seen an entire Network suck the Eagles A$$ like ESPN Does. I f*cking hate this station

ESPN went with that whole "dream team" thing and kept on it because the Eagles looked good on paper. It sold ratings too.
Now they have to cover their behinds by saying they can't believe it.
Soon, if the Eagles keep losing, they will have to stop.
They will look asinine to keep giving attention to a team that is out of it when there are a dozen other relevant teams and topics out there.
BUT, for some godforsaken reason, I believe they are hoping the Eagles get on a roll and hover on the edge of the playoffs.
I bet they are dying to play up that angle "Look who still has a chance!"
Now I'm getting sick.

Well if I may play Devil's Advocate for a second, the Giants haven't exactly dominated anybody to get to their winning record, but with that said, I don't know what is their fascination with the Eagles at all?!?

I'm not sure, but I always thought a lot of those reporters were from the Philly area. That would explain it.

According to ESPN, the eagles have a MUST WIN game every week.

According to ESPN, the eagles have a MUST WIN game every week.
If the Eagles lose this week and anyone at ESPN says that next week's game is a must win I would think about boycotting watching them.
Listen: No one talks about any team at 3-7 and says the next game is pivotal except a blatant kiss ass.
You have to actually start winning before you can even mention that.

The guy that answered said
NOTHING, because they are not going to the playoffs
