Week 10: Bye Week

Relax and enjoy your fantasy football teams this week.

The Eagles get to their bye a lot later than in 2016 (Week 4 bye week) with a 5-4 record. One game above .500 should be enough to be “in the hunt” for the NFC East crown, and/or a playoff birth.

Considering seven of the first nine games are against playoff caliber teams, a 5-4 record would set the Eagles up nicely to make a late season push for the playoffs.
