The Philadelphia Eagles still have the best record in the league, but people don’t seem to care too much about that right now.
The Eagles managed to win games all year long, even in unfavorable situations, yet they didn’t feel impossible to beat like last season.
The San Francisco 49ers had their NFC Championship Game rematch marked on their calendars since the schedule was released, and it showed on the field.
They wanted to make a statement, and they demolished the league’s best team at Lincoln Financial Field, leaving people wondering whether the Eagles were as good as their record said.
With that in mind, former NFL star Jason McCourty believes this will be the most crucial week for the Eagles’ season, as people are questioning their defense’s toughness, their resiliency, and their ability to go toe-to-toe with winning teams.

The Eagles now have a crucial road date with the Dallas Cowboys, and that’s also likely to be Dallas’ most crucial matchup of the regular season.
Dallas will look to prove that they can beat winning teams, and they did outplay them during stretches in their first game of the season.
The Eagles, on the other hand, need to prove that last week’s setback was a fluke and not their reality, so both teams are going to approach this matchup as if it were a playoff game.
This will be must-watch television, and a game that could end up having major implications in terms of postseason seeding, as well as in narratives.
