The Eagles are legitimately the worst team in football right now

The team's bad football team right now. I don't care what they were doing at the first 11 games... They're legitimately the worst team in football right now.

While not literally the worst (compared to 2-win teams), the Eagles' playoff blowout loss to Tampa Bay supported the claim that they were one of the least competitive teams by season's end.

I hate watching playoff football on an app like Peacock

I hate the experience of watching a game on an app as opposed to watching on TV, where you can easily and elegantly and seamlessly flip back and forth and show off your skills going back to the game right as it's about to snap again... it's a playoff game and it stinks.

This is a subjective preference about the viewing experience.

This might be Mike Tomlin's best coaching job ever

This might be Mike Tomlin's best coaching job ever. And it's crazy when they were 7-4, they were also like the most Mickey Mouse 7-4 of all time. But that's because Mike Tomlin is a pretty damn good coach. And so he was able to win all those games when they were getting outgained back to back to back.

The Steelers finished 10-7 and made the playoffs despite a difficult mid-season stretch and QB turnover, validating the claim of a high-level coaching performance.

The Jaguars' collapse was caused by the 'Curse of the Terrible Towel'

Since the Jaguars disrespected the towel [The Steelers' Terrible Towel], the Jaguars slid into oblivion. The Steelers end up taking the Jaguar's playoff spot right on the last day of the season. You can't argue otherwise.

The Jags did fall from 8-3 to out of the playoffs, though obviously not due to a literal curse.

The 76ers could be special

This team is fucking awesome. Yeah, and I am so down to get my heart ripped out because it's incredible what I'm watching. The 76ers team could be special.

The 76ers' 2026-27 season and playoff performance will show whether this team was genuinely special.

The Eagles Aren't an NFL Team Right Now

It's not an NFL football team right now. There's just not very many good football players on that football team right now.

This is an intentionally broad evaluation of the Eagles' current quality and is subjective.

The Eagles should have trusted their defense and kicked it out of the end zone

You just kick it out of bounds. You kick it into the end zone. All you have to do at that point is defend the sideline. Anything in play is game over. And the defense has been so fucking good all game. Why are you overthinking it? Just fucking do it. Put the ball in the fucking end zone and trust your fucking defense.

This is an evaluative coaching opinion that cannot be definitively judged.
