Unfortunately, it’s not the one that’s going to be played at Lincoln Financial Field on Saturday night.
The Birds must get through a mostly meaningless affair against the Dallas Cowboys (-4)
before they can fully focus on their (currently unknown) wild card opponent.
The Eagles simply don’t have much to gain by going all out to win this Week 18 matchup. Even if they move up to the No. 6 seed, they’re still likely to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-8)
in the playoffs. And so Philly will most likely be resting a number of key players against Dallas.
