It would be nice, but Philly seems like a team that has given up.

Last week, they played a 6-6 Bucs team, that was scratching and clawing to get themselves in the NFC playoff race, in Tampa, and snapped their 2 month long losing streak.

Tonight, they are playing a 7-6 Bengals team, that is scratching and clawing to get themselves in the AFC playoff race, only this time it's a home game in Philly, and it is always tough for a team that has to travel on a short Thursday night week.

Last week, rookie QB Nick Foles finally looked like an NFL QB (381 passing yards and 2 TD's) and if they can get a similar performance out of rookie RB Bryce Brown that they got in the previous 2 games before that (347 rushing yards and 4 TD's), then they certainly have a shot. The only problem is that one of the Eagles biggest weaknesses (OL) must face off against one of the Bengals biggest strengths (DL). If they give Foles any kind of time, or give Brown any kind of holes, then the Eagles might just help us out tonight.

I like Cincy's front 7 and think they might be a nightmare for Philly. I also worry about Philly's ability to cover AJ. This might be a blowout. I'm just hoping Cincy has a hard time playing on Thursday on the road. I hate these Thursday games. Players just can't get healthy enough on such a short turn around.

I hope Cincy traveling on the short half of a Thursday hurts them...because then they'll have a week-and-a-half to recharge and prepare for their biggest game of the year against us. Hopefully, this acts as a trap game for them.

I hadn't really thought about them getting a mini bye week right before playing us. Bummer.
