If the Rams finish 11-5 or 12-4, I think McVay has COTY locked down.(unless the Eagles go 15-1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm amazed our depth (next man up mentality) has been as good as it has, thus far. I'd still vote McVay though if he got anywhere close to 12 Wins!

When in fact the SOS going "into" the season based off last year's Standings are/were the true SOS!! Eagles came into the season with the 10th hardest schedule, Rams 17th. Just because teams like every season are moving up and down Throughout the Standings doesn't change the fact the Eagles were supposed to of played a harder schedule. You play who you play. You know just like the Rams playing teams like the Redskins, Giants, Cowboys, Colts, Texans, Niners and Cards. You know what they say about casting stones from glass houses, right? http://www.espn.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/234722/2017-nfl-strength-of-schedule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimmer is working on a first round bye with Case 'Freaking' Keenum as his QB. If he gets there then he's got it. Plus everyone likes Zimmer.

You play who you play though. If Philly drops a game, and Vikings go unbeaten the rest of the regular season, the strength of schedule plays a tiebreaking role, and will give the top seed to Vikings.

Phire Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 The "easy schedule" argument is literally dumb. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy because the Eagles have added 10 losses to their opponents by beating them. Taking bulk collective winning percentages is lazy and obviously flawed (this isn't even worthy of debate). Also, the vast majority of NFL teams just plain suck. What winning team hasn't had a relatively easy schedule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What winning team hasn't had a relatively easy schedule? I would argue its not "dumb", but rather a potential way of breaking tiebreakers, since you can only play who is on your schedule (you don't choose your opponents).

First, ain't nobody here talking about opponent bulk win% as a tiebreaker, and second, that would still be a horribly lazy and flawed way to do it.
