I think the Vikings are the better matchup for the Eagles. The only way the Eagles win is ugly, and Minnesota is more likely to give us an ugly game on offense than NO.


That said, who knows if Foles could even get 3 points on that defense :francis:

I know wat Drew Brees is capable of. And I wanted no parts.

Corners and Safeties gotta be on point against Thielen, Diggs and Wright.

I think we got the pass rush to force Keenum into mistakes.

And Thank the good lord, they have to play us at the Linc and the cold weather wont help Keenum either ( he got small hands).

The unknown is our offense against their very good defense. I think we got the o line to at least do some damage in the run game.

We can beat anybody at home. The Byrds just gotta limit the turnovers. We got away with it last time but to do it twice, u asking for trouble.

we will see. we will have to earn our trip to the SB. like you said we have to limit the mistakes. and take whatever the vikings D gives us.

watching the game the vikings D is very aggressive, we might can use that against them with some misdirections, screens, etc. which means we have to execute when we do

on defense that white guy will be tough. they will take whatever we give so we have to be sure with the tackling.

home field will help, lets get it underDogs

both teams terrified me before the game... not so much by the end of it. I wanted vikings over the saints just because its probably gonna be an ugly and low scoring game like the falcons one. one thing is for sure though, if we come out ANYTHING like we did vs the falcons then its a wrap EARLY. im not nearly as confident as i was vs the falcons but i still think if we play disciplined football then we can take this game.

their running game wont get off on us so hopefully we can force keenum into a turnover or 2.

we dont have to worry about McKinnon and Murray too much so that plays into our favour, especially in the cold during an outside game.

it's gonna be a lot like saturday where neither QB can hit throws downfield due to the cold and wind. I expect both defenses to be on their game and embrace the cold.

It's simple brehs, which backup QB is gonna make the bonehead throw, which one is gonna combust first and/or more. both teams know what it is. gotta hope the Linc proves to be the difference, once we had the running game to work off of and Doug started calling those RPOs you could tell Nick was oozing confidence with the quick reads and riding the emotion in the stadium.

We're gonna need to destroy Keenum and give him no time if we want a chance. If he breaks the pocket and gives Thielan and Diggs time to create lanes, those 2 will really hurt us.

I think we can shut down their RBs and TEs though . Rudolph is a bum

Agholor and Ertz might have to have huge games because i could see Alshon and our RBs struggling against minny.


I think they're a really good team and a very tough match up

Vatai hasn't gotten enough credit for holding down the LT spot. I pretty much never notice him and thats a compliment.

I've never had to think "ahhh fukk, this bum is no Peters and he's killing us right now :snoop:"

The fact that him and Wis were both backups to start the year and ended up playing side by side and doing an amazing job is pretty remarkable.
