The Philadelphia Eagles are 10-5 heading into their Week 17 matchup against the Buffalo Bills, in what should be an interesting game with freezing rain and other elements you’d expect in Buffalo in late-December.
Jalen Hurts & Co. won the NFC East title last week in their victory over the Commanders, but there’s still work to do for a group that struggled to find their identity most of the season. Late-December is the perfect time for them to have things figured out, though, and one more test before deciding whether or not to rest their starters in Week 18, will go a long way as they look ahead to the playoffs.

The Bills offense will also be a good challenge for the Eagles defense — a group that has largely dominated week-after-week, but at times has struggled against the run. Plus, DC Vic Fangio is a big supporter of his young players getting as much experience as possible, and Josh Allen will certainly provide some good reps instead of coasting the last two weeks.
Hopefully, we are able to get consistent execution in this Week 17 game, and let both sides of the ball gain some momentum heading into the postseason. And, maybe Jake Elliott will get a few chances to get his field goal kicking back on track after missing seven kicks so far this season — second-most only to the 2024 season when he missed eight total through 17 games.
