Eagles are going to destroy Dallas

 

[Tony D]

Interestingly there appears to be no Sunday Night football game next week. I knew they dumped the final week's MNF game so as not to disadvantage a team heading to the playoffs. But since we played do or die games on Sunday night the last two years didn't realize there wasn't a final week one this year. I suppose if our game is flexed, which it probably will be, then it'll only move from 1 ET to 4:25.

Not true. There is definitely a game next Sunday Night on NBC. Why wouldn't they? They've been doing it for awhile now.

There is an SNF game next week. Most likely will be us vs. the Eagles.

We gave up 45 pts to this Bears team 2 weeks ago with their backup QB. Let that sink in.

Yes, they just don't schedule the teams to be playing in that game until after this weeks games. NBC picks the game with the biggest playoff implications and if Dallas is in one of those games their game will be flexed most likely.

If you look at the schedule all the games are either at 1 or 4 next week, them they pick whichever one to move to the night game.

There is no SNF game on purpose. They pick what game to flex.

They do average 30+.

 

[boozeman]

The Bears are playing like ass.

Usually they have a game listed for SNF but will reserve the right to flex another game in it's place. Looking at next week's schedule there isn't a game even listed for sunday night. But maybe the last few weeks of the year they don't even have one slated for SNF but flex one there anyways.

So I hear. Most of the season they list a SNF game even though it's possible to flex another game into that slot late in the season.. Didn't realize they didn't even schedule one late in the year, but only flexed one there.

 

[VA Cowboy]

They do average 30+.

Be hard pressed to get close to that tonight.

 

[boozeman]

The Bears had a chance to clinch their division, it is funny to see them play this way.

DeMarco Murray's line. ATT-200 YDS-1,073 AVG-5.4 TD-9 REC-48 YDS-311 TD-1

Not bad considering he missed two games and is sorely underused.

I was hating him on that negative run but he made a huge play to catch the TD.

 

[boozeman]

Coming off a Vicodin high feels weird.

 

[VA Cowboy]

Still not sure how we held the Eagles to 3 points earlier this year. Even when healthy our defense sucked.

We limited McCoy and Foles had a very bad day. Missed practically everything deep.

 

[boozeman]

I am just amazed how poorly the Bears offense is playing.

Yeah, I had about 100 different things going thru my mind on that play. Initially, thought it was ok, just stopped for no gain. Then he started going backwards and I about shit myself. Then for a spit second I was thinking he was gonna get away. Then he was tackled and I was pissed. Then saw the flag, and was happy. Then they picked up the flag.... FFFFffff.
