They have two wins vs two teams with very good defenses. The Ravens are a quality team. The Eagles defense has looked very good. The reason teams stay in the game with them are because their offense has been turning the ball over.
The rate they are turning it over at will not be kept up over the season, it's impossible. It's scary to think how good they might be if they don't give the other team ample chances to stay in the game. Two 1 point wins is very lucky.
They'll have to have a 3rd good defensive game for it to really be legit, and the offense can't hove more ridiculous blunders. We'll see. They play the Cardinals (2-0) this week.... not the toughest opponent really but anything could happen.
And I would like to note... Preseason games don't count....
Berman is also best buddies with Andy Reid, he's the guy who introduced him to Belichick and then they became BFFs. You can expect a positive statement.
