Stage is set Monday night playoff football LFG Bucs
Eagles press saying they can win despite the recent bad form
"The talent disparity between these two teams was obvious in their first game. Eagles running back D’Andre Swift rushed for 130 yards on 16 attempts, and wide receiver A.J. Brown caught nine receptions for 131 yards. Brown and Swift combined for more yards than Tampa Bay’s entire offense (174). This time around, the Eagles desperately need a heroic performance from one of their best players to give them a chance to win. Hurts, who signed a five-year, $255 million contract extension this offseason, has to outplay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, whose career was revitalized under offensive coordinator Dave Canales. The severity of Hurts’ finger injury is still unknown. Hurts said his finger “popped out,” and he is taking it “day by day.”
well yeah of course they can. Bucs offense has looked like dog shit the last 2 weeks
but of the NFC teams, in order of least want to face versus most, would have to rank it
1. 49ers
2. Dallas
3/4 - Detroit/LA Rams
5. Eagles
6. Packers
so Packers would have been the best draw but the Eagles aint a bad silver medal
the Bucs are playing with house money while the pressure is on the Eagles not to lose to an inferior opponent. I'm excited to see how it plays out.
feel alot more confident in this game then i do last year's wild card game against Dallas

Not a perfect parallel but last year we beat Dallas early and then they come into the playoffs pretty strong. I think winning 6 or 7 games of the last 8 or so.
Still, tough game. Could just as easily be a big Eagles win causing Bowles to be fired and Eagles to get it back together lol
I'm excited for our star guys. Playing with Brady gave em exposure but its good they get to get another game for more recognition. Good stage for Carlton Davis, Antoine Winfield, and Kancey to get even more people familiar with them. A good chance for Rachaad White to get his game off as a receiver vs those Eagles LBer. The rest of the team most of the world already knows.

Agreed.
Good for the rooks and 2nd year guys to get that experience.
But, REALLY good for guys like LVD and Evans who are nearing the end, and need all the exposure they can for Canton purposes.
“We have a locker room full of guys that are comfortable being counted out,” said Mayfield on Sunday, January 7 during the postgame press conference. “It’s when we’re most comfortable. All we wanted was a chance to get in. Now we’re here, gotta handle it the right way.”
