  11-12-2018 23:42 via ocregister.com
  
  “Philly Special” has not been an accurate way to describe this Philadelphia Eagles season.
  A year after their magical run to a Super Bowl championship with a backup quarterback, the Eagles have stumbled to a 6-7 record, but they remain only a half-game out of the NFC’s final playoff spot.
  Sunday’s game against the Rams at the Coliseum is huge for the Eagles, but it has lost much of its shine since the offseason, when NBC selected it as part of its Sunday-night package. Te
