I support division winners hosting playoff games even with bad records because the unfairness provides entertainment
I like the fact that the Eagles could win the division at 7-9 and host a playoff game simply because we get to sit here and say, that's not fair. I like that it makes no sense. I like that if you win your division, you get a home playoff game, even if you're a terrible team. It just seems like one of those rules I don't want changed.

Now what sucks is now Eli's 116 and 117. You've got to play him again, though. You have to play him again. You've got to give him a shot to get back to 117, 117.
I would still bet on the Eagles to win the NFC East despite how bad they look
I still would probably take [the Eagles] to win the division, because they have a home game against the Cowboys, and they play the Redskins and they play the Giants. But if you had to ask me right now to put money on it, I think I'd still take the Eagles as bad as they've looked.
I can see the 2019 Eagles flipping a switch and going on a Super Bowl run despite how bad they look
I'm falling into the trap of what they've done the last two years. I agree with you. But I could see [the Eagles] just going on a run right now. [The Super Bowl Eagles] are eventually going to – everything's going to click, and they're going to flip the switch, and they're going to be great again.

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.
The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly
Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.
Jeffrey Simmons makes the Bears Super Bowl contenders
I thought they could win the Super Bowl before Jeffrey Simmons. Now I really do.
