I'd say Rams/Cowboys are neck and neck if only because we played them already. But both are very good teams.

Cardinals are a completely different animal. They are as good playing on the road as we are playing at Ray Jay. That would be a very tough challenge. We haven't played many QBs like Murray this year either.

Assuming we win, our divisional game will be a very good challenge for us.

White and pewter is our best looking uniform. We play the best in it as well. Hopefully it's white and pewter all playoffs.

I agree but would still prefer the Cards should we advance because they are playing the sloppiest football currently. All 3 are talented teams but the Cards are the least consistent of the 3 right now imo.

If this was October the Cards would've been the last team I'd want to play.

Their inconsistency is more so unpredictability IMO.

This is a team that beat the Titans, Rams, 49ers, and Cowboys all on the road. And all rather convincingly.

In a 1 off elimination game, I'd rather face teams we've already faced and in 1 case beat than I would a team we haven't and has been dominant on the road against great teams.

The only time I've seen the Eagles live was 12/29/79. Bucs 24/Eagles 17. :D
But, yeah. Fuck the Eagles!

So Shaq doesn't have any form of injury designation which means he's 10% good to go, right?

I think you meant to say 100% but theoretically we yes. If he in fact had an ACL sprain, he will be hindered. I think they have already said he’ll play with that brace on.

We’ll see how effective he is.

Should Suh and Vea take turns throwing Thor's hammer at Jason Kelce early on? I asked Pete but he went into immediate evasive procedures, did not realize he's still dealing with the trauma of those big boy types coming outta the gate at him.

The return of Smoke! (Brown's nickname in Arizona). Should know the offense here. This might be insurance should we advance and Grayson can't return from his hamstring injury.

Was solid for Buffalo in 2019 (1k yards) and the first half of 2020 before going on IR but still had close 500yds in half a season.

Couldn't find a role anywhere in 2021, plus he's 31.
Followed that guy in FF for years and weekend highlights, he rarely disappointed. The right QB could resurrect his career. Back in the day he could REALLY stretch the defense. Something we sorely need now.
Not sure how speedy he is these days.

No Lenny, but LVD and Gio are back.

Vaughn, Bell, Gio at RB. Two of those guys are vets who have great hands out of the backfield, which will be important with how the Eagles play defense.

The rain looks like it should be over a few hours before gametime. But it will be windy still. Probably a lower scoring game. Take the under

Special Teams maybe? I don't know. Doesn't seem like any of the 3 TEs are hurt. Not sure who he's replacing that won't be available on the ST unit either. Very weird move there.

Well got everyone but Lenny back. The weather is conspiring against us just like injuries though.

I should be more confident about our team facing the 7 seed...

Rain looks to be over, even the wind now being forecasted is less than 20mph, which is below what was being forecasted earlier in the week.
