Eagles can't get to No. 1 there, regardless of a W/L vs. WAS.

A Bears win gives them the NFC North and the No. 2 seed, but a loss gives it to the Eagles.

And if GB doesn't lose next week to BAL, then Eagles will play early window in Week 18 with NFC North games in the afternoon window, correct?

Is it correct that Eagles-Commanders in Week 18 is (most likely) irrelevant if the following results occur in Week 17:

-PHI beats BUF
-BAL beats GB
-SF beats CHI
-DET beats MIN

Assuming wins by LAR and SEA, that gets us to:

SEA 13-3
CHI 11-5
PHI 11-5
NFC South 8-7

LAR 12-4
SF 12-4
DET 10-6

Duke's chance of going undefeated in the ACC: 36%(!)

For reference...
Gonzaga's chance of going undefeated in the WCC: 16%
Auburn's chance of going undefeated in the SEC: 5%

There are a lot of things I miss about the journo life and National Signing Day coverage might be at the very bottom of that list. Godspeed to all the recruiting writers on this absurd concept of an event.

Both the travel mug and the koozie were wonderful additions to their respective collections. Forever grateful that @tmagelssen.bsky.social introduced this Yankee to the holy grail of West, Texas during my fall 2019 @dallasnews.bsky.social internship.

Of course, the first day I break out the Czech Stop travel mug (courtesy of @bportnoy15.bsky.social), I wind up listening to an episode of @thepressbox.bsky.social with a very detailed mention — inside the first 5 minutes, no less — of the world’s most incredible “convenience store.”

Wild to me that nobody caught the nut shot, even with the overhead camera. I think that was as much the reason as the kick, if not more.
