Moving it a few hours from a Sunday afternoon to a Sunday night is bad enough but moving it back over 24 hours is obscene.

The Eagles actually may not have a reason to play hard considering they already earned a playoff birth and perfect in their division and no signs of weakness. I figured the Bills and Cowboys would have more to play for at that point.
It's hard to tell at this point where the Eagles will be when we face them on the 18th. Before then, they play the Niners and the Cowboys. If they lose both of those games, they could be in a three-way tie for the #1 seed and tied with the Cowboys for their division.
It's a Week 15 game out of an 18 week season. They aren't going to be resting players.
