Week 6: Philadelphia Eagles (3-2) vs Detroit Lions (1-3)

[Shibito]

Now lets win the game! Hanson!

[Shibito]

Hanson needs a life contract from the Lions!

I don't care how they looked, a win is a win. They needed that.

Awesome, I'll take the win, but I'm baffled by a few playcalls/gameplan again this week.

A win against a "good" football team on the road, don't care if its ugly or not. Now if they can go in and beat the Bears on Monday night they have a schedule 2 of 3 at home which should allow them to salvage the season.

It is hard to explain how nice it is to know once you get in field goal range you have very little to worry about. If Hanson isn't a hall of famer in his first year of eligibility there is something wrong. And he could play for another 2 seasons easy I'd imagine. Although it might get to the point where we have to have a kick off guy cause we need Touchbacks with that terrible special teams coverage.

Considering there's only one kicker in history that's made the HOF, I wouldn't hold your breath on Hanson.

Blacked out on GamePass so i couldn't watch this, but kept it up on NFL.com. It's amazing how you can still be biting you nails when you just reading live text.

We needed a win to keep pace.

As of now both of Tess teams look horrible. The Eagles are "underachieving" an plagued by turnovers an last year is looking like a fluke so far for the Lions. The Lions have a much tougher road to the playoffs then the Eagles do due to the divisions they play in.

If the Eagles don't make the playoffs I think they clean house. Both Reid an Vick gone.
