  1. I think it's gonna be the Eagles/Jags in the SB. I think with both teams being disrespected both are destined to meet.

    It'll be a nice one-year for three years of payment for him. Might even get some interim head coaching experience to make him look worse!

    I know you're an Eagles fan but the case (no pun) could be made for Vikings too. Think it was 50/50 at absolute best that Minny would beat New Orleans and everyone keeps waiting for Case to screw up. Eagles have been favorites since like week 4 until Wentz went out.

    So essentially, 3/4 of the four teams have no one outside of their fan base believing in them lol

  4. Really ? I know a lot of people and media that have been on the Vikings going to the super bowl bandwagon.

    I've been seeing just as many predictions for the Eagles. Shit, CBS mock draft two weeks ago had them WINNING it.

  6. I haven't seen anything since Wentz went down. I've seen a case for the Jags as well.

    I think the Eagles are getting a bit more respect than they did last week, but the Vikings Super Bowl hype has been going all postseason and it seems like many think it’s a foregone conclusion now with their remaining obstacle being the Wentz-less Eagles.

    It’s gonna be a jags/Vikings super bowl and gonna end in a 2-2 tie.
     
  9. Exactly, it's easy to make a case for the Vikings to fuck this game up and find things that don't favor them just as much as the Eagles.

    I wouldn't say just as much at all. The Vikings are overall the better team with the better coach.

    Lets Go. Prestigious

     
  12. Both teams are 13-3, both teams are even in my opinion. Both have great defenses, both have great coaches this season.

    Record means nothing unless you're on that UCF Championship bandwagon, thank you.
    They both have great defenses but Minny's might be the best in the league and Zimmer might be COTY.

  14. And Minny's D would have given up the game winning drive against Drew Brees if weren't for the miracle.

    Looks like Eberflus is going to be the DC
     
  16. What is that last name ?

    And they're still one of the best in the league haha

  18. And so are the Jags, and they gave up 35 on Sunday. I'm just saying going into this week I'd have more confidence in the Eagles defense considering what they did to Atlanta's offense.

    Drew Bree’s is a little bit better than a Steve sarkisian called offense though.

    It should be a defensive slugfest though, it will just come down to one or two big plays by one of the offenses.

    Memories are nice, but that's all they are. Prestigious

    Sarkisian is the reason the Atlanta offense was so abysmal too, that can't be forgotten

    I'd still go with the Vikings over the Eagles. Zimmer is an incredible coach, Case is much better than Foles, and I trust the Vikings defense more than the Eagles

    I feel like the Falcons offense is very sputtery, if you can contain their run game they are in trouble (we couldn't, but losing Brockers early really hurt, we really need better linebackers).

    Either way both defenses are no joke I have a little more confidence in Vikings O than Eagles, but it should be a super tight 7-9 type game either way.

    The Eagles get their inspiring story next year. Carson Wentz will come back from his injury to finish what he started. It'll be great.

    This year is the year of Case Motherfucking Keenum.

    Eagles will have multiple years of being SB favorites with Wentz back.

    It’s a toss up, I like the Eagles offense slightly more and the Vikings defense slightly more
