PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Despite Sunday's loss in Dallas, the Philadelphia Eagles remain in a good spot to earn the No. 1 seed in the playoffs, and can punch their postseason ticket before they take the field on Monday night.
The NFL released its playoff scenarios for the Birds, and the simplest path is to simply win against the Seahawks on Monday Night Football (8:15 p.m. on 6abc).
