Birds blast Bears, Cowboys next?

Nick Foles
While it’s been a tad of a roller-coaster season for the Philadelphia Eagles in head coach Chip Kelly’s inaugural season in the NFL, the fact of the matter is that there has been far more good than bad for the City of Brotherly Love’s beloved NFL franchise.   

Having said that, I also want to go on record right now to say that the Dallas Cowboys look like they’re an accident waiting to happen as they get set for a winner-take-all Week 17 NFC East showdown against the division-leading Birds.

Yes, I know the Cowboys will be coming into this contest with a bit of momentum after narrowly beating Washington in Week 16 to keep their postseason hopes alive for what will be a third consecutive season-ending contest that will determine their postseason fate.


Kyle Orton
The good news is that Dallas will be playing this contest on their home field. The bad news is that Dallas lost at Washington 18-18 last season and at New York 31-14 in 2011, not to mention, falling to Philly 44-6 in 2008 in another regular season finale that kept them out of the postseason. Overall, the Cowboys are a pitiful 2-11 in their last 13 Week 17 games since 2000 and seeing as how Philadelphia demolished Chicago 54-11 in Week 16, things don’t bode well for the ‘Boys at all.
