Practically speaking, New Orleans Saints match with Philadelphia is an elimination game

WhoDat!656 · 11-04-2012, 04:59 PM

Ignoring the obvious for the New Orleans Saints and the Philadelphia Eagles going into their Week 9 matchup would be setting themselves up for harsher consequences than either side thought they would ponder after only nine weeks of the NFL season.

For all intents and purposes, Monday night's game in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome is an elimination game. Even with a loss for either team it's not a complete mathematical impossibility for Monday night's loser to make the playoffs in early January. It is a highly likely improbability, though, as both teams are parked far behind the pack in their respective division and their conference.

Here we go on another run. I feel like we're due for some good luck. That and hopefully people will begin to underestimate us.

The Jim Mora video comes to mind but "Playoffs" isn't even funny.

For what it's worth, Eagles' fans are very polite given their record vs. our record. I did not get locked up today. And that's a good thing.
