Eagles playoff scenario: How Philadelphia can clinch in Week 15

Philadelphia is 10-3 and reeling after back-to-back blowout losses to NFC Powers, San Francisco, and Dallas.

Nick Sirianni has clarified that he won’t be switching play-callers on both sides of the football while taking some of the blame away from his team, placing it squarely on himself.

Even after two disappointing efforts, the Eagles control their destiny in the division and can still finish with the No. 1 or 2 seeds if they win.

They’ll fly cross country for an intriguing matchup against a Seahawks team facing similar adversity.

Seattle is coming off their fourth-straight loss of the season after losing to the San Francisco 49ers without quarterback Geno Smith.

The Seahawks now need a win to get back in contention.

With the preparation now underway, we’re looking at nine playoff-clinching scenarios for Philadelphia in Week 15.
