A tale of two very different 4-7 teams. For the Eagles, 4-7 represents a major disappointment, while for the Seahawks, 4-7 shows a team that has improved and shows promise for next season. These teams have some things in common. Neither will make the playoffs this year. Both are dealing with key injuries. I was leaning toward Seattle, but without Sidney Rice, they lose the big-play threat to take advantage of Philadelphia’s depleted secondary. When I found out that Shady McCoy might not play tonight, I hesitated in picking the Eagles, but now that it appears that he is ready to go, I feel better about Philly. The crowd noise in Seattle can give opposing offences fits, but with the way that the fans in Philadelphia must be feeling about their team’s lost season (there were chants of “Fire Andy” last week), the best thing for the Eagles right now is probably a road game. Winner: Eagles
Eagles at Seahawks
