00:00All right, so let's get into the Eagles and their win total this season.

00:03And we'll, you know, kind of need to go through this week by week, Vinny,

00:06to see if they can hit this kind of number,

00:07because this is one of the highest in the NFL, 11 and a half going into the year

00:12to win the East, they're minus 145, to win the NFC plus 360,

00:16to win the Super Bowl 7 to 1.

00:17The thing that I find curious here, Vinny, a little bit,

00:20and kind of why I still think, I don't know if the Eagles are going to win

00:23the Super Bowl again or anything like that, but I really,

00:26I know their backup quarterback, McKee, has hurt a little bit,

00:28but I kind of, I feel like if Jalen Hurts was to go down,

00:30I'd kind of feel comfortable with that guy playing for a couple of weeks.

00:34And that's what I look at with a high total such as this.

00:37As an example, Vinny, Lamar Jackson, he goes down, oof, it's over, right?

00:41If Josh Allen goes down, they're not winning 10 games too.

00:44But Philadelphia, we've seen with Hurts out, they still could win.

00:48Yeah, we saw that a couple years ago with Gardner Minshew.

00:50It seems like their backup quarterbacks are interchangeable.

00:54They had Kenny Pickett last year in that role.

00:56So I don't think they're worried too much.

00:58I mean, their offensive line and running game can pick up the slack in most games

01:01and their defense can also turn into offense and make some big plays,

01:05as we saw in the Super Bowl.

01:07So they're just so loaded right now that, again,

01:10the support system can probably sustain a backup quarterback for a game or two.

01:15And again, I know the schedule is just tougher overall for the Eagles,

01:18commanders, the entire NFC East, but the Eagles are still in control here.

01:22I don't know if Dallas is going to be all that competitive.

01:26And you look at the Giants, they still think they have a lot of work to do.

01:28So that's going to help get them to that total as well inside the division.

01:32And for a first-place Super Bowl champion, I think their schedule is rather favorable

01:37in relation to that.

01:39So I think I'm looking at just over right now.

01:43I think I have them at 12 wins.

01:44It's a little precarious, but I still think they could get there.
