00:00Washington getting three and a half at Philadelphia.
00:03A little bit of a hiccup there last week for Washington at home.
00:07Winnable game, but they end up losing to Pittsburgh, 28-27.
00:11Philadelphia's kind of turned things around here very quietly.
00:13Dismantling your Cowboys.
00:15They could have won that game by 50 if need be.
00:18So who do you like on the surface on this Wednesday afternoon for
00:21tomorrow's Thursday night game?
00:24Yeah, I mean, maybe they got screwed by the spot last week with
00:28Maybe it didn't.
00:29I think they probably did.
00:32But that being said, I don't think I'd have overturned it on review either.
00:35Whatever the refs called on the field.
00:38But remember, they probably should have also lost the Hail Mary game, right?
00:41Chicago gave that one away.
00:43And so what I'm trying to tell you is the Commanders may be heading a little
00:46bit back down to earth.
00:48You know, they pulled out some wins they shouldn't have had.
00:50Maybe they lost a game they should have won.
00:52Philadelphia's on the rise here.
00:54Everyone's healthy now.
00:55Brown, Goddard, the offensive line.
00:58Washington, not so much.
00:59Latimore, probably not going to play.
01:01Matter of fact, checking practice reports.
01:02I know yesterday he didn't practice.
01:04I assume he didn't again today.
01:06I don't trade for players who are hurt, Scott.
01:08Let's look at the hamstring.
01:08I just don't know how that's going to heal.
01:10And now he may not, I don't know when he's going to play there.
01:12I assume they were holding him out last week for this game.
01:14And now he's still not there.
01:16So that concerns me somewhat there,
01:17because I think he's a big piece there to calm that offense down.
01:20He's just as questionable, by the way, as I see here.
01:23But once again, not practicing.
01:25I don't think he plays there.
01:27Brian Robinson, also a little iffy here,
01:29though I think he does go here.
01:31I think this is going to be, like I said,
01:32I think we're going to see the Philadelphia start to take control of the NFC East.
01:34I think they go in there.
01:36I shouldn't say go in there, playing at home.
01:38I don't want to say hammer Washington,
01:39but I think they win a decisive victory here.
01:41So I'm going to take the Eagles.
01:42I'm going to take them and give the points up here.
01:45I think they win by 7, 9, 10 points here.
01:47I think that, once again, at home, short week.
01:50They're the better team.
01:51Washington may be heading on the way down here.
01:53Eagles tell you, we're winning the NFC East, boys.
01:56You go play for a wild card.
01:58Yeah.
01:59I initially liked Washington, like, oh, wow,
02:01you want to give me the Redskins or Commanders over a field goal?
02:04I'll take it.
02:04But then when you start to think about things, a little difficult.
02:07Yeah, you're right.
02:08They've been able to squeak out some wins here.
02:10God bless them.
02:11And in the big picture, in the long run,
02:13it might not be the worst thing in the world, George,
02:16for them not to win this division.
02:18They're in first place now.
02:19This would go a long way towards winning the division,
02:21if they could get a win here.
02:23Just because, ask the Houston Texans.
02:26You get a first place schedule.
02:28In year number two of your quarterback,
02:30in this case with Daniels versus Stroud with Houston,
02:33man, it's just a whole other game.
02:34You're getting a couple of more games against top five teams
02:39in the NFL, versus even a second place schedule,
02:42where at least you get the second place team.
02:44You're not going to face the Detroit Lions.
02:47You're not going to face the San Francisco 49ers,
02:49or the Buffalo Bills, or the Kansas City Chiefs.
02:52You will, if you're the first place team,
02:55because you get the first place other teams.
02:56So you're not going to probably win a Super Bowl, right?
03:00Even if you got home field advantage,
03:04heck, you could have the number one seed in the NFC,
03:06and I don't think they're going to get that.
03:08I think that's Detroit's.
03:09But just for the sake of argument,
03:11I still don't think Washington would end up
03:13going to the Super Bowl.
03:14So like I said, it might not be the worst thing
03:16in the world for them to finish as a wild card team this year.
