Week 17 NFL picks
For the gambling degenerates, here are my Week 17 picks. To note, the helmets indicate who I think will win the game, not cover the spread. At the end of the picks, I'll note a few teams that I like based on the spread.January 2, 2016

Eagles-Giants injury report, with analysis: 'Who cares?' edition
The Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants will play a game this Sunday that is completely meaningless to the outcome of the 2015 season, but does has other future ramifications, such as draft position, the Eagles' schedule in 2016, and the health of Eagles players going forward.January 1, 2016

Eagles can theoretically reclaim value of second-round pick with loss to Giants
If the Eagles lose on their meaningless game this Sunday to the Giants, they will clinch a draft spot of 11th overall or better. They can draft as high as ninth overall depending on the outcomes of the Buccaneers and Saints games. If they win, however, they will draft no higher than 13th, and could draft as low as 17th.December 31, 2015

Eagles and Giants will both try to win a game they shouldn't
Have any Giants fan friends? Maybe you should switch jerseys with them this week, because the winner of the Eagles-Giants game this Sunday will very much be the overall loser.December 30, 2015

It wasn't all bad: Chip Kelly left positive impressions on many Eagles players
With the fallout of Jeffrey Lurie's decision to move on from Chip Kelly as the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, much of the focus is understandably on figuring out what went wrong and why. Much of that includes Kelly's relationships with his players, which are perceived as largely negative. That is certainly not an "across-the-board" sentiment, as many players took positives away from Kelly's approach.December 30, 2015

Could the Eagles move to a 4-3 defense?
One of Chip Kelly's shortcomings as a head coach was that players were forced to adjust to his scheme, and not the other way around. A prime example of this was Kelly's insistence on having a 3-4 defense, despite defensive personnel that did not fit a 3-4. For example, players like Brandon Graham, Trent Cole and Vinny Curry, who were clearly best as 4-3 defensive ends, were forced to play far outside their comfort zone, either as outside linebackers or as 3-4 defensive ends.December 30, 2015

The Eagles' next head coach would ideally be a 'quarterback guru'
The only team with a more unstable quarterback position in the NFL than the Eagles has been the lowly, doormat Cleveland Browns. The Eagles aren't winning jack until that changes.Just In
