The Eagles made it official on Sunday and checked out this season, following the rest of their fanbase with a laughable 27-10 performance against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium.
It was a meaningless game, but it was if the Eagles flat out quit, which was manifested through their shoddy, listless, lethargic play. They will limp into the NFC playoffs as the No. 5 seed, losers of five of their last six games, against NFC South winner (No. 4 seed) Tampa Bay.
This game was intended, at least from the message conveyed from the Eagles this week, as a get-right game, a chance to tighten the sloppiness that has plagued this team.
