Agree.

It's been bonkers the past two weeks, but I expect Philly to be more daunting. I'm less worried about Hurts' legs than I am his arm. IIRC he's thrown over 300 the past two weeks, and they are very vertical. Our D seems to start by stopping the run and keeping things in front of them. I think smart play and a few lucky turnovers can keep us in the fray, but there's no way I can envision a 38-10 thrashing.

All that said, I think we can rely on Doug and Co. to have the team prepped and ready for the task.

To the OP, if we do get the win, the media will be hounding us with attention. I expect we'll hear a bit already after this past weekend, but if we are 3-1 in the middling AFCs, it's hard not to think that the team may start drawing eyes.
