It's impolite to point, Dak.

And on the fourth week, Carson rested. But that doesn't mean that hardcore Philadelphia Eagles fans will do anything other than watch football on Sunday during the Birds' bye week, because, you know, there's football on. 

In case you missed it, here are our Week 4 NFL picks.

Here's a place to discuss a whole bunch of non-Eagles games today, which include:

  1. Colts at Jaguars
  2. Titans at Texans
  3. Browns at Redskins
  4. Seahawks at Jets
  5. Bills at Patri*ts
  6. Panthers at Falcons
  7. Raiders at Ravens
  8. Lions at Bears
  9. Broncos at Buccaneers
  10. Rams at Cardinals
  11. Saints at Chargers
  12. Cowboys at 49ers
  13. Chiefs at Steelers

There are several games of interest:

• The Colts-Jaguars game is in London, and therefore on at 9:30 a.m. EST. While it is a game of little interest to Eagles fan, it's always nice to wake up to football.

• The Redskins will try to avoid the embarrassment of losing to the Browns. The Browns have played competent football the last two weeks. Don't rule out the potential for a hilarious Washington upset. 

• The Lions will of course be the Eagles' Week 5 opponent after the bye, so this will be a chance to scout them.

• And finally, if you thought you'd never have to root for Chip and his six-play playbook ever again, you were incorrect.
