The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

That's going to be real interesting.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

That's week six against the Panthers.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

But, yeah, as the Philadelphia Eagles, this is kind of the –

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

Real discussion that we had earlier, what's more important, the schedule of opponents or your rest?

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

The Philadelphia Eagles play the seventh easiest schedule of opponents.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

If you look across the division, the Cowboys and the Commanders, they all play like bottom eight easiest schedules of opponents.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

Their schedule of opponents are much more difficult.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

But both of those teams rank top five in net rest.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

the Eagles – sorry, the Commanders and the Cowboys.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

Whereas the Philadelphia Eagles rank 31st in net rest at minus 15 days, exact opposite of the Chicago Bears.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

They rank 31st in prep and rest.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

They are –

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

playing six opponents that have over seven days to prepare for them, including those bi-week games that you mentioned, Simon.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

So that is going to be something from a challenging perspective for them.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

Weeks one to nine, they play four games with a rest disadvantage and zero games with a rest advantage.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

So it starts off

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

difficult from a rest perspective for them.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

If there is any time in the calendar that you would want to be at a rest disadvantage, though, it would probably be earlier on in the season when you're not banged up.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

And so that will play into their favor later on because from weeks 10 onwards, they are plus seven days of net rest edge from weeks 10 onwards, which includes their bye week.

The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Sharp or Square - NFL Schedule Release PART 1 with Warren Sharp

So that is a positive for them.
