Last week: 14 (+1)

Record: 7-6

Net points per drive: 0.44 (8^th)

DVOA: 4.7% (12^th)

Weighted DVOA: 13.2% (9^th)

Bottom line, it won’t matter what they do in either of their other two games if they can’t win in Pittsburgh week 16. I don’t think they can and while I’m at it, I think they lose at home for the Ravens week 17. This is a team who has had a lot of issues beating playoff caliber opponents over the past 2 seasons. The Eagles next week should be easier, but weird things happen on Thursday Nights.
