Nugget for those saying the Eagles are the top team.
Eagles:
8-1 overall
Their opponents (removing games vs. Eagles): 22-35, .386
Vs. winning teams: 1-1 (Panthers, Chiefs)
Saints:
7-2 overall
Their opponents (removing games vs. Saints): 42-28, .600
Vs. winning teams: 4-2 (Lions, Packers, Bills, Vikings, Patriots)
The Eagles have played a cupcake schedule.
As of right now the Saints are clearly the top team in the NFC.
