The Eagles are one win away from the Super Bowl but ,,,,, the Minnesota Vikings will probably beat the New Orleans Saints so Philly has to beat that winner to get to the Super Bowl where they cannot beat New England ,,,sorry to say but facts are facts.
Football is also about heart, courage, strength and smarts but the Eagles seem to have outplayed themselves to get to the NFC championship game. They beat the Falcons, …the Eagles were simply a bit better and a bit luckier as Fletcher Cox who led a great defense and a bunch of pass receivers who helped Nick Foles beat the Falcons who couldn’t get the job done.
That won’t be enough to get past the Saints or the Vikings. Not with Foles who is more than just a good enough quarterback to get the job done. On the other hand ….
The Eagles play at home on Jan 21 and that may be enough to get past Drew Brees who’s good but who’s been going downhill or Case Keenum of the Vikings who’s trying to go uphill. If the Eagles get lucky again they go to the Super Bowl where they won’t stop Brady and Gronkowski. Facts are stubborn things.
