Kinda misleading as I bet all those seats are sold but the people just don''t show up for losing teams.

Interesting approach ... judgmental sampling at best.

Average attendance to date in 2017 is 69k. Prior-year average was 68k. Took me 5 seconds to independently assess attendance figures. Authors were probably the same folks which inflated the POTUS inauguration.

Where they serve up a good product, seats will sell.
Especially corporate seats.
Foxboro bangs it out all the time.

attendance figures do not necessarily tell us how many people actually attended the games. Since 2005, the NFL has encouraged teams to report "tickets distributed" as opposed to the actual number of fans that pass through the turnstiles. Tickets distributed includes tickets sold and tickets given away (e.g. charity donations).
That's why we can have a game in San Francisco with a reported "attendance" of 70,000 and the stadium still looks half empty.

Blame Wentz for this loss.

You don't consider Carolina to be decent? What about Dallas?

Anyways, the play calling was much more conservative than what we've been seeing in the last several games. Overall, Wentz is to blame.

Don't consider Dallas decent this year. Would have to see what Dallas was doing ebfore they were beaten.

Why would the Eagles switch up what has been working for them all year.

Coach have a tight collar ?
