A Quick Look At The Eagles 2012 Schedule

The Eagles 2012 season schedule is out and they’ve got a tough first half of the season then in the second half it looks much easier based on the records the teams had a year ago.  You truly can’t base the 2012 season on the 2011 records but that’s all we have to go by at the moment.

This schedule will be a challenge for the Eagles who have been notoriously slow starters under Andy Reid.  If they don’t get it together quickly with this schedule, they could be facing an uphill battle to get to the playoffs.

The season begins with a battle in Cleveland versus the Browns, who were 4-12 a year ago.  That’s one of the few games in the first half of the season that looks like an easy one.

In week two, the Birds will host the Baltimore Ravens, who were 12-4 a year ago and a play away from the Super Bowl.  They’re coached by former Eagles assistant coach John Harbaugh. This will most likely be a tough one.  Joe Flacco continues to improve as the stars on the defensive side, Ray Lewis and Ed Reed, continue to play well despite being well past their prime.

In week three, the Eagles go to Arizona to face Kevin Kolb or John Skelton and the Cardinals, who were 8-8 in 2011.  The Eagles are away from home but it’s a game they need to win because the West division still isn’t very tough.

In week four, the Birds host the defending Super Bowl Champion New York Giants on Sunday night in front of the nation.  The Giants who were only 9-7 a year ago during the 2011 regular season, but went on an improbable run during the playoffs to win it all.

It doesn’t get easier for the guys in midnight green in week five, when they go to Pittsburgh to play the Steelers, who were a playoff team at 12-4 in 2011.

Week six finds the Eagles playing another 2011 playoff team when they host the Detroit Lions, who were 10-6 in 2011.

In week seven the Birds have a bye.  This a good place for a bye because the week off might give a key Birds player who is injured, time to return to the lineup.  We all hope that Michael Vick isn’t one of those players, who needs time to recover.

Again this is a good time for a bye because the Birds could use a week off during what looks like one of the tougher stretches of the season.  It’s playoff team after playoff team during this part of the schedule.

In week eight, the Eagles host the Falcons who made the playoffs a year ago and were 10-6 during the regular season.  Matt Ryan is getting better and Atlanta is eager to make some noise in the playoffs.

The Birds play on Monday night in week nine.  They’ll be headed to New Orleans to take on the Saints, who were 13-3 and a playoff team a year ago.

Week ten finds the Eagles hosting the division rival Dallas Cowboys, who will be trying to get back to the playoffs after finishing 8-8 in 2011.

In week eleven, the Birds go to Washington for another division game, this time against the Redskins, who were 5-11 in 2011.

It’s another Monday night game in week twelve, this time against Cam Newton and the up and coming Carolina Panthers, who were only 6-10 in 2011.

The Birds will play on Sunday night in week thirteen, when they head to Dallas to battle the division rival Dallas Cowboys, who had an identical record to the Eagles in 2011, 8-8.

In week fourteen, the Eagles head to Tampa Bay for a battle with the Buccaneers who will be trying to rebound from down year in 2011 when they finished 4-12.

In week fifteen the Eagles host the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night in a game which will be telecast on the NFL Network.  The Bengals were a playoff team in 2011 with a 9-7 record.

In week sixteen, the Eagles host the division rival Washington Redskins, who hope to be doing much better than their 5-11 2011 record.

The Eagles conclude the season in North Jersey against the Giants, who of course were only 9-7 in 2011 before getting hot and marching to Super Bowl title.

I see a 10-6 season for the Birds and 11-5 if everything goes well.  This isn’t an easy schedule with the Ravens, Steelers, Bengals, Lions, Falcons and Saints on it.  Not to mention tough games against the three division rivals.

Boy i cant wait to read what some of you are going to say today. Hey fellas lets be real honest and look at the schedule and make a real prediction not a Eagles Guess. I am beginning to think the leauge wants Andy fired to becasue with this schedule his ass is out of here. Ray Diddy will break it down big time today. And i dont know.. First off we dont do good in Primetime with this team, Take a look at the 4 games straight where they are going to play a team coming off there BYE week where they have extra days to prepair. 4 games starting with Pittsburg. Thats tuff and these teams finished with winning records and History has PROVEN REID DOESNT FAIR WELL AGAINST TEAMS WITH A WINNING RECORD.
Then you have after that rough stretch here comes Dallas in Dallas after they had 9 days to prepair and relax after there Thanksgiving game. AT that time the Eagles would have 4 days to prepair plus 1 day of travel and this is coming off a Monday night game.. I dont recall a schedule like this, They would deserve the Team of the Millenium if they win the Big one with this schedule. Good luck and i will still cheer for my team when we are getting our butts kicked and when we are kicking butts becasue in the end We will clean house and start a new. I would rather do that then keep bullshitting myself thinking its the players . Any other coach can come on here an win games with this line up but somehow Andy cant get it together.

Maybe he is delusional like Mcslabb doing a interview saying he is better than some hall of famers who won 3 superbowls. The man said out of his mouth that THE BIG GAME IS THE NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.. NOT THE SUPERBOWL..ohhhhhhhhhhhh no it makes sense he and andy believed they only had to get to the championship game and that is the superbowl.. F..ing dummy. And if i read any of you on here praising them for NOT MAKING IT TO THE SUPERBOWL then you dont belong on here.

Almost getting some P#$$y does not count if you dont put it in fellas, Mcslabb and Reid are those guys who bragged about almost getting some. They are just fine with getting stinky fingers …. Dont be a McReid out it all the way in…….. Balls deep this time… That means WIn the damn super Bowl then brag Becasue damn it if you do you will be GODS….

I Tthink the Eagles are pretty fortunate with this schedule
they have the Ravens and Steelers early in the Season

1st 4 Games (at least 2-2, should be 3-1)
2nd Games (get a split 2-2
3rd 4 Games (go 3-1)
Final 4 Games (for 3-1)

Finish with 10 wins

The get playoff teams in the Lions and Falcons at the LINC where both teams historically do not play well on the road
I think it comes down to this, Eagles need to protect home field and go 6-2
and then have very winnable road games at Cleveland, Arizona and Tampa and then steal a road win in one of their NFC East Divisional Games and they fininsh with 10 Wins..

Looking at NFC East rivals Cowboys & GIants, the Eagles have a better balance and much easier finish than they do and should be able to control their own destiny down the stretch…
It’s critical that they start strong and be 4-2 come their Bye Week and then are in good position for a strong finish..

Scramz the eagles have preformed very well in primetime for the last decade or so.

optimism tells me 10 -6. Ravens and steelers are two good teams that are getting olde and have some holes. I wonder how the saints respond to what happened this off-season? ATL and Lions are not good road teams. Handle the division and play up to you potential. Should be a fun year.

Frank…concentrate on the 2nd half of the decade. Our team have been mediocre at best.

I tend to ignore the first few years of Andy Reid when reflecting on how terrible the NFC East was during that time.. the NFC was wide open and that bum still couldn’t get our team over the top of the NFC.

Padding stats against bums only to get rolled over on the big stage against coaches with Superior minds.

Paulman….you really think the Eagles will be the Arizona Cardinals?

Remember Kolb calling out the plays from the sideline?

Remember Fitzgerald avoiding Asmo only to line up against our weak safeties?

You guys still think the Eagles are the team that had Ray Rhode’s players and Modrak’s picks on defense.

there’s no more gimmes with Andy’s teams now. The Cardinals and Lions are of equal caliber right there with the Eagles, if not better.

Wake up! It’s 2012! Not 2002!

All depends on the draft and what moves we make before that.

If Vick can stay healthy which is a reach. I think 9-10 wins.

Regardless i think Detroit, Green Bay and New York are still the better teams.

And maybe San Fransisco too.

Nice early test with Balty.Cream the Browns and tune up nice. Our offense with SHady in second season after all pro break out…will be pretty potent.They’ve taken care of 10 and Maclin wont be sick in offseason.Whole offseason with Peters replacement to get in the mix.

Hey look man thats how this thing works…you go in and you grind.Reid.

I think we’re better then Detroit.More balance on offense and better secondary and with backer upgrades d is on par. We have a better d-line.

7-9……try 10-6….12-4 no injuries.Hit a homer in draft.Get a kid in here who contributes.

The schedule is tough and I like it that way. I wanna see these guys play to their ability the whole season and I dont want any excuses from them. This is it..

if you sit back and think about the sheer amount of talent on this team? There is no reason why these guys cant win a super bowl this year..

As the rosters stand today, we win no more than 8-9 games. It can change with a great draft, Samuel trade, trades & a few veteran FA signings. But AS OF NOW, 8-9 wins. Paulman, how are they fortunate? They have 6 nationally televised games, 5 are prime time, 11 games are against 500 or better teams, 9 of which are playoff teams, & they have 4 games against teams that are coming off buys, 3 in which are consecutive weeks. Not to mention they play Dallas at home, the week after their Thanksgiving game with them having 9 days rest & we only have 4 days, because we play the Monday night game, the Thanksgiving weekend. So how are they fortunate? Get another cup of Java, Mi Piasano.

Again, this is a tough tough schedule. At first glance it looks easy but 7 out of the 13 teams were in the playoffs last year. Ugh.. the Eagles better be ready this year because teams will not let up on them nor will they lay down for them, the birds did not make the playoffs but they still have a target on there back.. This is no cake walk schedule.

Rock, all I do is study, watch & research. AS I’VE STATED, AS OF NOW, this is the same disappointing roster that was a fools gold 8-8 team from last year. They won 4 meaningless games to end of the season, after starting 4-8, when all the pressure was off & their season was over. Cut it out with the delusional, retardation. You go do some studying & stop reading fantasies. Come back to reality. You guys that can’t see through your green colored glasses, & have a rational, factual conversation, are nauseating. Yeah 16-0, 15-1, 13-3, Super Bowl, Won the last 4, WOULDA, COULDA, SHOULDA! GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK!

Safeties will be better this year…backers are upgraded…corners are fine with Nam getting back to all pro play.D-line has more depth with Hunt Graham coming in young and hungry.

Top rb in the league,line took a hit but its good timing so Bell can get in the mix,Maclin/Jax,Vick full offseason(he can get better..reduce t/o’s),Celek nice TE,and the kicker should be better.

Roster?

While the Eagles’ don’t have to suffer through any 3 game road trips, the sched makes didn’t do the Eagles’ any favours this year.

Week 1 – @Clev (W). Eagles notorious slow starters, but it is Cleveland
Week 2 Balt (L) I just think the Birds are going to split their first 2
Week 3 @Ariz. (W) Bit of a look ahead game as face Div NYG the following week, but still think Birds win
Week 4 NYG (L). Eagles in tough spot with NYG on 8 days rest having played previous Thursday
Eagles probably 2-2 after first 4 (though could be anywhere from 1-3 to 3-1)
Week 5 @Pitt. (L)Really tough game fro Eagles. Pitt coming off bye week and Eagles off a Div game.
Week 6 Det. (L)Another very tough game. Det also coming off bye and Eagles 6-6 before their own byes under Reid
Week 7 BYE I think 2-4 at this point and QB contorversy brewing
Week 8 Atl (W). Eagles $$ off the bye + Atl stinks
Week 9 @NO (L) The middle of season continues to be murder. Can the Eagles’ win this? Yes, but Saints are 19-5 at home last 3 years, incl 8-0 last year
So that makes 3-5 after the first 8 and everyone panicking
Week 10 Dallas (L) Did I get this right? Eagles on a short week playing a team that has been off for 8 days. Thanks sched makers.
Week 11 @WSH (L) Again, Eagles on the road facing a div opponent coming off their bye week. Brutal.
At this point Eagles in big troubs at 3-7….
Week 12. Car (W). Relief as Car comes to town with a QB rollin’ through sophmore jinx
Week 13 @D (W). Eagles split with Dallas
Week 14 @TB (W) TB stinks
Week 15 Cinci (W). Basically an automatic win hosting a Thursday night game – esp against 2nd yr QBs
Suddenly Eagles’ fans excited by 4 game W streak to get record to 7-7
Week 16 Wsh (W). Eagles at home with 8 days rest.
Eagles 8-7
Week 17 @NYG – Toss up…..depends who is fighting for playoffs I guess….

I could see the Eagles’ getting to 10-6, but somewhere around 8-8 seems more likely. The schedulemakers really put Birds behind the 8-ball on several occasions.

I also haven’t factored in which 3 games Vick is going to miss, though its going to be difficult for him to get through the Pitt/Det combo unscathed.

I like DT Fletcher Cox alot and have stated many times since January, but I would not trade away more draft picks for Eagles to move up from #15 to
#7 to get him, I don’t think he’s that much better than 4-5 other DT’s who will still be on the board #15 to trade away a 2nd or 3rd Round Draft pick or future players.. Now if you trade #15 and CB Samule to the Jaguars for their 7th Pick then I would be ok with that for Samuel will be gone anyways..
But Eagles need both those 2nd Round PIcks (#46 & #51)for LB’s/Safety

Thank you Songs I think Frank is just a fan who says they will win the super bowl every year..lol I fyou been paying attention to what is going on around the leauge Frank the birds WERE good in primetime BACK IN THE DAY when the nfc east was super week. Ans like songs said, they still didnt win the Super bowl. The Lions are not the old loosing team of old, they are equal with the eagle. Guys the Eagles are no super dominate team anymore, no one is scared of coming to the linc they said last year. Teams were on HNF network calling the Eagles WEEK.. Dude what does that mean? That they were lying?? No other teams are doing the right thing and the Eagles are still doing things there way. The truth is Players small in size wear down by the end of the season then fade away when other teams got there football bodies together. Being small is only good when you have to climb in holes fora living not playing a VIOLENT SPORT WITH BIG MEN.

serious Birdo 13 -3?? Damn i didnt think people drank this early in the day. Your sick dude..Hey Birdo stop thinking the lost leads were by accident, the offense could not score either. once teams get physical with them they shut down. It was ALSO TOLD by other players last year. That the Eagles gave up in a game I.E Seattle…

Best said Jon Hart no cake walk. Teams dont fear the birds anymore. They get a kick out of beatting a team that sucked but told people they would have dominated inthe playoffs.. Bunch of talk..

Really Erock? How will our safties be better this year? because The kid from Temple?? you have facts to back this up??? NOPE! And um did you RESEARCH the real deal with DRC?? He is a bum he got beat 68% of the time 68% thats real bad, but i guess to you 68% was passing in school. You need Facts to back your statments guys stop the wishing. Same team same result.

Hey paulman stop smoking coke bro. its not cool. to say DRC will intercept a ball.. when has he done that. the kid has bad hands(fact) he stoped on a play(fact) remember when he missed the interception last year and instead of making the tackle while the play was still going he jumped up and down like a kid looking at his hands. Hes a fucking bum. yall need to wake up.and how will the eagles put up 30 points on the lions with that monster rush.

He schiller if what you are saying that new season and it doesnt carry over, then WHY ARE YOUR PLAYERS SAYING THE FOOLS GOLD WILL CARRY OVER IF ITS NOT TRUE?? AND WHY WAS DETROIT A LOOSING TEAM FOR OVER A DECADE ? WHY HAVENT THE EAGLES WON THE SUPERBOWL BECAUSE THE SAME SHIT DOES CARRY OVER .
Damn Erock i didnt think you were this stupid.lol One question EROCK. If they were called SOFT last year, how will the same team all of a sudden become tough in a couple months????? Can anyone answer that ?? A PUNK IS A PUNK AND HE WILL ALWAYS BE SOFT. Namdi doesnt have a mean bone in his body DRC has the mind of a child colemen cant tackle someone with his head down and VICK is tiny as hell he looks like a smoker.

The bad part about Mcoy is Reid already admitted at the owners lunch that they were going to cut back on shadys touches. its his contract year, the always do this. if a player is coming off a stellar season they cut his role so they cant pay him off pro bowl number. They straight lied to Desean last year and said come to camp and we will take care of you. I wouldnt be surprised if shady doesnt fall for that shit and doesnt report. Westbrookis in his ear and he will listen to him . they are screwd . Ans the best over all DT is STILL from Penn state. in COX’s HIGHLIGHTS he is gettin lead the way the o line wants him to go . Still is in the back field every play. we need that push. cox is overratted and coples doesnt want to play.

it’s fairly simple to see from 08-2011 the eagles won quite a few more games than they lost in primetime. also fairly simple to see that the NFC as a whole was not that good. The NFC east was terrible. I just pointed out that what you said was wrong. I can see that you did not appreciate that.

Caps lock typing is for teenagers.

Added a tough MLB….will ad a tough dlineman in the draft.

Reading into Reids comments at a owners meeting like it means Shady doesnt get his share this year.Calling me stupid.Stop dude.

Long diatribes of a post….boring…no substance.

Some of you guys go all out on here like your arguing for lower insurance rates and or your mortgage comp lost a payment.

Cause someones opinion about the squad differs from yours.I ask questions as to why you think that.Instead of typing in caps and stating there illiterate or ignorant.

Smoking coke?You lose cred when you pop off at the mouth like that.

If we’re debating Birds in a bar …would the conversation go liek that if you disagree or think im way off? No.

So wise up……show some class and remember you know as much as i do.

The safeties are better cause we knwo who they are….we’re not going into the season with Jared Paige.Thats my opinion BROSIFF!!

The d-line has additional depth…they were a strong point of the d last year. Can they play run better yes. But thats why Ryans is here….to be a stud.

The backers need another player.The Texas kid could help with some mid round guys who could make a impact.

Namdi was a All-Pro for several years in OAK…..has he lost that? No.It was a down year as far as performance goes but look for a bounce back year.He’s still top 3 press tech corners in the game……MY OPINION BROSIFF.

DRC is a better left corner then a slot.Leave Jose out there and let him improve off of last years solid season.Hansons fine.

If you dont think this team has gotten better then its on you.We’ll see come 9-9 if they are.

i love how birds fans are AGAIN fighting about what games we win/dont win MONTHS before we even have a team. ugh… oh well. Her’s what i would do….

1) Draft Cox where we are at- i dont want to see us giving up picks this year to move up.
2) Draft a outside LB with some size and speed. I understand that LB’s like this dont grow on trees but it IS only the 2nd round- there should be options here.
3) I’d grab a WR here. if they arent going after Burress, they need to grab someone here who can get up and get the ball.
4) perhaps move up to grab that CB they felt “could go in the 2nd round but fell to us because of a stolen xbox thing or that torn ACL.
