dbair. If there are two 8-8 teams who finish tied for the 6th playoff spot, they don't just say that both teams can't go to the playoffs because they have identical records.



I believe that you are missing the entire point as to what dbair was talking about. The fact is, that the Cowboys went from 6-10 to 8-8, while the Eagles won the division last year, and then went on a super shopping spree, and everyone and their mommas predicted that they would win the Super Bowl. Not only did tha tno happen, but the dream team did not even win the division, but did not even make the playoffs, nor had a winning record.

They still beat us twice. So doesn't it stand to reason that they are the better squad until proven otherwise?

it doesnt matter that they beat us twice hoser...all that mattered was the point that we both won the same amount of games

Todd Bowles is ineterviewing in Oakland for the dc position.

I like Bowles. Another guy Garrett tried to bring in or hired last year could move up in the world.

That is a good sign.

Wait a sec. You mean the GM is hiring a coach before he has a HC?

I read CZ and DCU experts who said only Jerruh did that.

dbair, you'd have a point if you compared us to another 8-8 team that we never played and didn't geat beat by.

I could see if we split the two games. But we didn't. We weren't really in either of them.

Whoops, I misread the article apparently he is interviewing for head coach.

I thought Winston moss was already hired or at least believed to be for sure....

Jesus Christ bob. You are impossible.

The second game we had our third string qb and two running backs off the street.

Just like last years game where the eagles didn't play Vick, you shouldn't be making such a big deal out of the loss.

But of course...you will.

8-8 is still 8-8...we lose a tie breaker to them for things like scheduling for next year (or playoffs, had it applied) but what I responded to was "they finished ahead of us" which implies they won more games. When in fact we finished tied with them for 2nd place because we were both 8-8

dbair, we finished 3rd. There was no "t" next to ours and the Eagle's record in the standings.

Did Denver and Oakland both win the AFC West?

I'm not making a big deal out of the 2nd loss (btw the 1st loss to them was basically a microcosm of our finish to the regular season). Just refuting this non-sense that we tied the Eagles for 2nd place in the division.
