Geno is a game time decision. We need him to be out, just so he isn't banged up for their home game against Philly next week. These next two weeks are crucial for NFC supremacy. If the Eagles lose today and next week in Seattle, we will in essence have a 2 game lead (tie breakers) for the number 1 seed against both Dallas and Philly. Which can come in handy in case we stumble vs someone like Baltimore later in the month. Seattle wasn't going to beat us anyways. Let Geno rest up for a big one against Philly next week, he can carve that defense up…
Yeah, but wouldn't it give us a one game lead over Dallas? Essentially we would be tied with Dallas (with the tie breaker). So if we slip up against someone like baltimore, and Dallas doesnt, wouldn't they take home the 1 seed?
I'm not worried about Dallas. They still have to play Buffalo, Miami, and Detroit before closing it out at Washington. They're not going to run the table, and will likely lose the next 2/3 imo.
Philly on the other hand plays Dallas then Seattle….followed by a cakewalk schedule that includes seeing the Giants twice.
Imperative that Philly lose these 2 weeks !
Philly just needs to lose today and hoping niners can win out to take the #1 seed. Glad the BAL game is in levis
