As mediocre as Philly has been this season they still have a solid shot to make the playoffs.
And before you say so what, just remember how nobody gave the Ravens a chance in 2012 when they limped into the playoffs with 4 losses in their last 5 games. The 2005 Steelers and 2010 Packers were both sixth seeds. A certain 2007 team gave up 31+ points five times, and went 4-4 after the bye.
All those teams won the Super Bowl. So did the Raiders, Broncos and Ravens as wild cards.
Based on past history (see above), strange things can happen once the playoffs commence.
Somebody has to win the NFC East.
Washington (6-4) just lost their starting quarterback, and has had more than their share of other injuries to deal with. They go on the road for four of the final six games (at Dallas, Philly, Jax and Tennessee). If the Eagles sweep Washington, Philly wins that tiebreaker.
Dallas (5-5) is only one game ahead of the Eagles, and have been incredibly inconsistent. The next four games are tough, though three are at home (Was, NO, Phil) and then at Indy.
Philadelphia (soon to be 4-6) are at the Rams in week 15, but have five other winnable games. They are home against NYG and Wash, and then at Dallas. Then after the Rams game they finish home against Houston and then at Washington.
Do I expect Philly to make the playoffs?
Not really - but then, somebody has to win the NFC East.
Do I expect them to go deep in the playoffs?
Not at all - but stranger things have happened in the past.
