There was a time this season when the Philadelphia Eagles led the NFC East, which seems more like a fading memory now. It seems like a dirty lie.
How could that possibly be true? It’s acceptable to have a foggy memory while fighting sleep because of the mass quantities of turkey you’ve consumed during Thanksgiving Day festivities.
And that matters little, because even on a turkey-free belly (an awful thought, I know), the Eagles being a first-place team at any point in 2015 feels like an impossible dream and the highest form of football comedy.
