So you are calling for the Eagles to lose 17 games?I think that's a bit high. I'll give them 6.5 or 7.5 wins, not sure yet. Here's my predicted final standings:
Eagles 7-8-1
Cowboys 7-9
Eagles 6-9-1
Giants 5-11
Wash 3-13

I think he's saying the eagles will play two distinct seasons this yearSo you are calling for the Eagles to lose 17 games?

As you can hopefully read, I said I wasn't sure if they'd be at 6.5 or 7.5 wins so put both options in italics. They'll either finish a half game up or behind Dallas imo.I think he's saying the eagles will play two distinct seasons this year
5 wins total? If Philly splits with Dallas like you say, beats Wash and beats the Giants, that's 5.5 right there. We almost beat Balt with our B team... we will for sure get 1 upset vs CLE/GB/SEA/NO/ARI to bring us to 6.5.Eagles split with Dallas imo...
I have a hard time finding more then 5 wins for the Eagles. Assuming Zeke doesnt fumble every game I think Dallas win this

Hmmmmmmm, how is this looking?Having fun playing crystal ball?
I couldn't resist going out a couple more weeks just to see...
Week 9
NY Giants beat WFT and Dallas get waxed by Pittsburgh, Philly on a Bye loses no ground really.
NYG 3-6
Phi 2-5-1
WFT 2-6
Dallas 2-7
Week 10
WFT will be beat by the Lions, Eagles take the Giants and Dallas is on a Bye
Phi 3-5-1
NYG 3-7
WFT 2-7
Dallas 2-7
You could see this Division being won at 6-10 right now, most of the time they are going to be Underdogs vs whoever they are playing outside the NFC East.

We are on track for all of thisThere's a scenario where after Week 13 you have
PHI 4-7-1
Dallas 4-8
NYG 4-8
WFT 4-8
I think the Eagles will end up in last place this year. They’re awful and Dallas will be ok with Dalton. The Giants and Football Team are also really bad but I feel like they have some strengths? Ok maybe not. Ok maybe the Eagles will win the division.Please Cowboys, Giants or Skins take this from us. Eagles don't deserve this thing and will lose the next 4 games at least.
It's not even a positive to win the division this year.I think the Eagles will end up in last place this year. They’re awful and Dallas will be ok with Dalton.

WFT 4-7 vs Steelers? Not sure when this game is actually being played but looks like a LossThere's a scenario where after Week 13 you have
PHI 4-7-1
Dallas 4-8
NYG 4-8
WFT 4-8
Except the Eagles play the Packers next. One thing's for sure, this is the most competitive division ever. Week 13 and it's still anyone's division. No one wants it.WFT 4-7 vs Steelers? Not sure when this game is actually being played but looks like a Loss
NYG 4-7 vs Seahawks...seems like a Loss
Dallas 3-8...the Bottom Dwellers face off
Philly 3-7-1...
We all know the regression of Wentz and Pederson have been very evident this year. But injuries to both Dallas and the Eagles have hampered them significantly, which is the main reason this division is going to be historically bad. It was bad anyway, but the injuries have pushed it to the extreme.Giants and Skins actually look like competitive Teams. Funny that Dallas and Philly were the runaway favorites to start the year and now they're competing for the top 5 pick.
So currently the NFC East non-divisional record sits at 10-23-1. Even if it's teams lose their last 6 non-divisional games, it will NOT have the worst divisional record under the 4 team division structure. The 2008 NFC West will hold onto that title. If the division goes 2-4 in the last six games it will actually have a better divisional record than last season by half a game.So since 2002, when the NFL went to its current 4 team divisional structure, the worst divisional record was the 2008 NFC West which finished with a cumulative record of 22-42. If you take out the divisional games which had a record of 12-12, the division was 10-30 against non-divisional opponents for a .250 winning percentage. Currently the NFC East's non-divisional record is 2-15-1 for a .139 winning percentage
Almost all these losses have been to playoff teams. They've faced the NFC West and AFC North this year, the two best divisions in football.So currently the NFC East non-divisional record sits at 10-23-1.

It usually works itself out. They're the worst division in football but far from the worst ever.Almost all these losses have been to playoff teams. They've faced the NFC West and AFC North this year, the two best divisions in football.
Records outside the div vs non playoff teams:
DAL: 3-0
WAS: 2-1
PHI: 1-0-1
NYG: 1-2
NFC East Overall: 7-3-1 vs non playoff teams (out of div)
I think Wash winning 2 out of 3 here and finishing 8-8 is the most likely scenario. Their DL is really good, and once they got at least average mediocre QB play instead of Dwayne Haskins, they're playing winning football.The WFT has taken command of this Division at 6-7, Chase the Rookie, best since JJ Watt at turning the game, he might have another score or two in him before the WFT leaves the field in 2020.
I can see Washington going 8-8 right now, that's better than the 7-9 Seattle Seahawks one year when they won their Division.
