OK, so the Eagles beat the Giants on Sunday. Yeah, their running game played well, and it’s not like the Giants are a bad team against the run, either. So why am I being so careful about getting my hopes up? For starters, they’re an 8-6 team. #2, that first drive by the Giants made the Birds look really, really bad. #3, the Giants game had two things in our favor: a rookie quarterback who makes mistakes, and a Giants running attack that was going to the edges rather than up the gut.

I’m praying for 10-6 but expecting 9-7. GO EAGLES! There. I said it.
