Eagles Way Too Early Record Prediction
Philthy
What I dislike most about this schedule is the lack of consecutive home games. The opener will have excitement, but if the team starts slowly, it will be difficult for the crowd to get into it. We play many teams that we've consistently defeated in recent history. At some point, some of these other teams, like the Packers and Rams, have to beat us, right? Or will we continue to dominate them and perhaps lose a couple of games to random teams like the Vikings or Bears? Anyway, LET'S GO!
Week One vs. Dallas This is the time of year when Dallas and their fans actually believe they have a shot. If we lose this one, I don’t think it’s the end of the world. I believe they are much better than people think. With a division rival, we will probably split. Given the excitement, the ceremony, and our loss to the Falcons in last year's opener, I don’t see us losing this one. W 1-0
Week Two vs. KC This is a revenge game for KC. After KC beat the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII, the Eagles have now beaten them twice in a row in our own revenge game and in Super Bowl LIX. I went back and forth on this one. This game probably means a lot more to the Chiefs than it does to the Eagles. I could see the Eagles having a bit of a hangover and starting 1-2. Andy Reid's teams also take a little while to hit their stride. I don’t think the Chiefs have done enough on offense to out-talent the Eagles. Maybe I’m biased after the BTA. I don’t think they are that good, but they are at home, so L for the Eagles. L 1-1
Week Three at Rams I would typically pick the Rams in this spot. We’ve beaten them three times in a row. They are a good team, and they have to win a game at some point. However, this game is at 1 pm, and they have to travel from West to East. BTA W 2-1
Week Four vs. Buccaneers Why can’t the Eagles ever play in Tampa Bay in December? It’s 400 degrees and hurricane season. This is a DUE Theory spot for the Eagles. The Eagles are simply WAY better than the Bucs. I firmly believe that, and the stadium is usually 55% Eagles fans. W 3-1
Week Five vs. Broncos Another playoff team from last season, this could be a trap game too. But they have to play at 1 pm in our building. Poor scheduling for the AFC West once again. W 4-1
Week Six at Giants Short week for the Eagles. This game is solely dependent on who the QB is. Just kidding, we’ve owned the Giants. Russell Wilson, JaMarcus Russell, Jameis Winston, Jaxon Dirtbag, CLAP CLAP. Eagles by a million. W 5-1
Week Seven at Vikings SKOL SKOL SKOL SKOL. This will potentially be a third young QB in a row: Bo Nix, Jaxon Dart (maybe), JJ McCarthy… This could be an amazing run for a super young Eagles defense. The Eagles spent their first five picks on defensive players. I still think the Eagles will add/drop players during training camp and go bargain hunting. W 6-1
Week Eight vs. New York Giants I don’t see any scenario where the Eagles drop this one. Maybe that is a problem… The Birds should be cooking at this point. W 7-1
Week Nine: Bye Week
Week Ten vs. Green Bay Here is what I was talking about earlier. The Eagles have beaten them three times in a row, and they are a really good playoff team. The Packers have to win at some point, right? WRONG. The motivation here? TUSH PUSH. I want to see the Eagles average 2.5 yards per play and tush push for all four downs up and down the field. We are going to win this one. First timer in LAMBO! BRING THE JUICE and TRAVEL with us and Philly Sports Trips. W 8-1
Week Eleven SNF vs. Lions This game means much more to Detroit than to us once again. The Eagles are going to have a target on their back. I’m a homer, but let’s be real, the Eagles will have probably lost more than one game at this point. The Lions were the best team in the league last year and just completely choked. L 8-2
Week Twelve at Dallas The Eagles will split with Dallas. If for some reason we lose the home opener, we get this one here. But in this exercise, we won the glorious opener. Dak Prescott is like .500, hanging onto the third wildcard spot. L 8-3
Week Thirteen vs. DA BEARS
Black Friday! This is going to be super cool. Hot ticket, everyone will be home for the holidays. When the City Boy comes home and meets the small-town girl at his local tavern, he drunkenly buys her $1500 Birds tickets. She doesn’t mind football; she likes the outdoors, horseback riding, but must take her aunt Christmas shopping… She can’t go to the game. Instead, Bro brings the city girl and gets caught… Small-town girl says, "THIS BRO IS A DICK." The city girl doesn’t even watch the game. She’s taking selfies. She’s texting some Hinge dude from Chicago. What a dirtbag move. She DMs a Bears player too. The City Bro leaves the game at halftime because the Eagles are winning 45-0 and pays for the small-town girl’s aunt to get her hip replacement. All is saved. A true Hallmark love story. On a side quest, the Bears' only good player dumps cheese whiz on the city girl and moves to Philly to play for the Eagles too. It’s LIT! Ok, that was stupid… Last year, we rolled to the Eagles-Cowboys game with like 12 of our family members in various rows and seats. I love these huge holiday home games. I’m a big fan of Caleb Williams; like the Cowboys, I think the Bears will be much better this season. GOOD, but not Super Bowl Champion GOOD! W 9-3
Week Fourteen at Chargers If you haven’t been, SOFI is the bomb. It’s Eagles WEST! W 10-3
Week Fifteen vs. Raiders The Raiders are in a rebuild. They don’t have a QB. They drafted a running back LOL. W 11-3
Week Sixteen at Commanders We split with these guys… The NFL lined up these games to have an impact. It pushes the Commanders to tie the Eagles' record, and the Week 18 game is the deciding game. Decides the division. Decides seed. Decides something. I’ll give the first one to them, the less meaningful of the two. Had the Eagles won this one, we’d be in good shape. But drama ensues. No rest for us this year. Punxsutawney Phil does not see his shadow, or does he? Two more weeks of football. L 11-4
Week Seventeen vs. Bills This is a get-right game for the Eagles. After all the talk, ARE THE EAGLES EVEN THAT GOOD?! They go into Buffalo in the snow. The Bills are already like three games up in the division at this point, but they are still kind of playing for seeding, which is less important for them than it is for us! GOOOOOOooOOO Birds. Highly recommend this one. The Eagles have more talent than the Bills. I don’t know why The Bills refuse to get Josh Allen more weapons. We play the Giants twice in a few short weeks. We play the Commanders twice in three weeks. We see the Bills in the Super Bowl. W 12-4
Week Eighteen vs. Commanders This could go either way, very important or a rest game. I’ve got The Eagles going 13-4 or 12-5. It’s tough to project. Since I have us splitting with the Commies, the W comes here in this scenario, while I penciled in a Week 16 L. These final three games will be very telling for the Eagles. Do they go 1-2, 2-1, 3-0, or 0-3? Are they going into the playoffs with JUICE, or do they run out of gas? Dynasty Talk? Or Another Team’s Year? W 13-4
I’m so excited… I’m less worried about the Eagles losses on defense than most. I think the Eagles are going to get a ton of production rotating guys. They are also building for the long term and have stockpiled picks for 2026. We are in a great spot heading into 2025 and beyond.
