The Philadelphia Eagles are, again, in a must-win game. Here’s everything you need to know for their battle with the Houston Texans.

At some point, kickoff has to come right? Ever since the Philadelphia Eagles took care of business against the Los Angeles Rams, everyone’s been talking about ‘The Birds’, and about Deshaun Watson, and about the Houston Texans.

Philly’s slim playoff chances ride, partially, on defeating the Texans and getting some help. If they can take care of their own business, they’ll need the Dallas Cowboys to implode and lose their final two games. That would give them the NFC East title.

If Dallas doesn’t cooperate, they need the Minnesota Vikings to lose one or both of their remaining two games. Beating Houston and, then, the Washington Redskins puts Philly in the postseason as the Wildcard.

Get it? Got it? Good.
