"Season is over now. This guy puts a jinx on every team he supports," a fan said. "Already enough working against the Birds. Don’t need the Drake curse adding to the list 😭," one fan said. "This is worse than the madden curse and kevin patullo combined," another fan said.

More joined in to have their say about the matter.

"Somebody tell him to take this off. We just gettin back on track. We don’t need this weirdo screwing it up," one fan said. "I bet he recorded this before our 3 game skid… This explains everything…" another fan said. "Now the Eagles gotta beat the: Saquon Madden Curse, Hard Knocks Curse, Drake Curse (arguably the most difficult)," a fan said.

Drake is notorious for his sports betting losses. Many believe that the team he supports is destined to fail. He had placed a massive bet on the Kansas City Chiefs to complete their three-peat by defeating the Eagles in Super Bowl LIX. However, Jalen Hurts' team took home the Vince Lombardi trophy.

According to DrakeCurse.com, the rapper has placed 19 bets in NFL games and has won only 6. Although he has made over one million in net profit, his success rate is just 31.6%. In total, he has wagered 93 times and has won on just 33 occasions, a 35.5% winning-rate.

Philadelphia Eagles' road to playoffs

The Philadelphia Eagles are at the top of the NFC East standings with a 9-5 record. However, they have lost three of its last four games, and the only win came against the 2-12 Las Vegas Raiders.

Nick Sirianni's men blew a 21-point lead against the Dallas Cowboys in the Week 12 game, their largest collapse since 1999. Just days later, Philadelphia suffered a 24-15 home loss to the Chicago Bears on Black Friday. It was followed by an overtime 22-19 defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football.

While Philadelphia is most likely to make it to the postseason with the Dallas Cowboys far behind in the division title race, Saquon Barkley and Co. need to step up their game if they want to defend their title.

They will be on the road to face the Washington Commanders in the Week 16 game on Saturday. The kick off is scheduled at 5:00 p.m. ET.
