That was hilarious. WTG Eagles, I’m all for tanking, I wish the Niners did more of it, and the Giants are the one team in football I have a grudge against. And it’s not even for beating my team (that grudge is saved for fxxxing Kyle Williams) it’s for beating Brady twice.

Philadelphia surrendered and Doug Pederson should be fired for his actions tonight. He told 53 men to lay down, that their effort wasn’t worth it, that they shouldn’t try. He was on the borderline coming into tonight, but what he did tonight won him no favors.

Pederson at the podium jabbing himself in the leg with a pen so he doesn't laugh when he says "I thought Nate Sudfeld gave us the best chance to win."

The only thing I like in the NFL more than watching my team win, is watching the hate manifest on the field with actions like what the Eagles are doing. You can taste the "F You" to the Giants. The NFC East can be described in one word: Spite. It's not just winning your division, it's how to f*** over the other three teams in doing so.

I'd more upset but if your season hinges on another team doing badly then you need to get your shit together.
Go Ravens

If I was an Eagles fan, I would be upset at Doug Pederson for what he did.
But at the same time, I would tell Giants fans that they don't have a right to be mad because you should have never gotten to a point where you needed us to get in.

Yup as a Giants fan, that's where I'm at. They had a chance with the Cards and Browns and they blew it. So while what the Eagles did was dirty, it's NY's fault for being in that position

As a Washington fan I'm thrilled with the division title and playoffs. Anything else is gravy from this point forward.

I mean, that's true but it's also true that essentially throwing a game is complete bullshit. At the very least it has to be investigated. Throwing games can be illegal. On another topic, I saw this nugget this morning and it was priceless: Week 17 rushing leaders: Jonathan Taylor - 253 yds Derrick Henry - 250 yds Derrick Henry AFTER contact - 179 yds JK Dobbins - 160 yds Jonathan Taylor AFTER contact -142 yds Suffice to say, the two AFC South teams in the playoffs had some monster games on the ground yesterday.

I really hate playing this card, but I'd wager that the pearl clutching and pitchfork grabbing would be magnified by a zillion if a certain hoodie wearing coach did the same thing that Peterson did last night.

There would be some of that, but also a fair amount of people finding it hilarious. At the very least, however, there would be fewer trolling accusations and more claims that it was done as sheer brilliant strategy.

Not by me. Thems the brakes... I get that mentality to a degree. I do. Tanking has always been a thing in the NFL, but it was always a wink wink kinda thing. I thought the Jets/Vegas one was borderline too much, especially given the scapegoating for Williams, but last night was a whole other thing. I mean, what is too much when it comes to actively trying to lose? What's next? We gonna be cool with a defense literally laying down on the field and allowing a 90 yard run to seal a loss?

So while what the Eagles did was dirty, it's NY's fault for being in that position I mean it’s not like they blew it in the sense they lost to inferior teams, but 6-10 shouldn’t grant you a ticket to the playoffs in any event. It was unprofessional of Philly to do what they did last night, BUT it’s not like we can say The Giants were robbed. If they had a better record, I’d be livid. But 6-10? We can’t say that we objectively deserve to be there.

You play to keep the other team honest. You don’t lay down and let a team take a playoff spot just to get a better draft pick. Shitty division or not, Philly’s management has zero integrity left. You risk the NFL investigating you, finding you ordered your head coach to put the backup in to “see what he’s got”, see that you tanked for a pick and either take that pick away or drop you heavily in the picks.
The NFL moved this game to prime time because it would decide a division and Philly had every chance to win it but laid down for the world to see.
