Week 4 non-Eagles NFL Sunday rooting guide, live updates and open thread

After their pathetic tie against the Cincinnati Bengals a week ago, the Philadelphia Eagles sit at 0-2-1, and face the prospect of another embarrassing defeat, this time on national television on Sunday Night Football in San Francisco against the 49ers. But we'll have to wait until tonight for that.

First, we'll have a full slate of NFL games to get through. Each week, we have been taking a look at all the other games going on around the league, and pointing out the outcomes that will favor the Philadelphia Eagles.

Depending on whether you believe the Eagles should still try to compete for an NFC East title or if they should be sellers at the trade deadline, the ideal outcomes of each game would differ. Out of curiosity on where the fans' heads are at, I took something of an unofficial poll on the topic. It seems that the majority feel that the Eagles would be better served just continuing to be bad this year:

I agree. So for now, it probably doesn't make a lot of sense to analyze what the best outcomes around the league would be for the Eagles. 

Here's the other NFL action from around the league. If you're of the "keep trying to win no matter what" mentality, then you already know that it's ideal for the Cowboys and Football Team to lose, blah blah blah.
