Super Bowl LVI Projection, Week 2, Thursday

Philadelphia over Houston

For the second year in a row (see 2020 here) my least favorite projection day doesn't include a 2-0 team that artificially appears in much better position than they are. Both Washington and New York were 0-1 going into last night, so this was inevitable. We do have New York artificially low as the only 0-2 team, but no one's really paying attention to the bottom of the table, right?
