My office was closed bc of the parade. Aside from the majority of the staff being Eagles fans and attending the parade, the parade turned right at the corner where we are located AND the regional rail wasn’t going into mg office. So I worked from home.
I have word from me peeps that attended that while there were obviously some dangerous and bad actors (two women were shot after a little scuffle), most of the fans were having a great and safe time. Good for them too. While I don’t like the team and dislike how their fans treat other teams’ fans, the people I know are nice and should enjoy the win.
Now no more Eagles. Go away.
The Vikes has a brutal schedule next season. Aside from the usual suspects, it is the NFC East and AFC North with Seahawks and Chargers tossed in. Joy.

Amen. It was the best of a bad situation, for me...and most of America, I guess.
If the Lions or Bills don't win next year, I'll be disappointed...again.

As soon as the standings are finalized at the end of the year, you immediately know who you'll play next year. It's partially a rotating schedule, and partially based on prior year seeding.
You just don't know where (home vs away) and when.

We now know the home/away too. Just not dates.
Vikes play the Eagles in Minnesota. Lions go to Philly. That will be a true test for the Lions, and perhaps a critical season game too.
Vikes play “away” at Pittsburgh. If it is in Pittsburgh, I will meet my brother at Heinz field. If it is the Dublin game, we also plan on going….it will just be costly

That's some weird coincidence. I've got one uncle in Minnesota, and one in Delaware.

I wish they would stop playing everyone in their own division twice.

6 of 17 is a high ratio, but it makes sense to me.
You want to foster hatred and rivalry. And you want a division winner.
If the schedule was more dispersed, or even random, the standings and championship would seem more random to me. And the divisions rather meaningless.

Yes... you must be a 'fan' of one of the South divisions.
