well, you shouldn't be, take away the deep passing game, and they do nothing, take Stallworth out of the game, and it's in the bag

Their defense is still solid... great tackling so far. The returner looks scary since Vandy sux at kickoffs and our coverage is suspect at times.

What he said. :) But remember, this is a bit of a trap game for the Eagles. Whether or not they pull this one out tonight, you can be sure the team was looking ahead to the Cowboys game. If they do lose, it means the Cowboys could put an early nail in their coffin next week. It would drop the Eagles to 2-3 with another NFC East team, either the Commanders or Giants, also guaranteed to have 3 losses as well.

let's not be scared, but also not dismiss a team that will come ready to play. This is far from a sure win game for us.

Eagles look like the same team as they've always prior to 2005. The team seems solid on both offense and defense, but nothing that will make you think they can dominate.

The difference between this year and the other years is that the Cowboys are just as solid on both sides of the ball as they are...if not better in certain areas.

Sunday should be a good game. It's a division game, but it's a measuring stick as well.

The 2004 Eagles would crush this years team

Crush them

Westbrook is a great player...he isnt out there tonight and still the Eagles are only down 2pts...he scares the heck out of me...we dont have anyone who can cover him in space unless we match up a CB on him...I havent seen much of anything from our pass rush yet either...I also figure Jim Johnson will throw the kitchen sink at Bledsoe and our OL Sunday...niether Washington nor Tennessee tried alot of pressure or blitzing

it will be a tough game

There's only one player on that team I'd say scares me, and he plays on their D.

I agree it will be a tough game. Going into Philly is never a picnic, and throw in the TO factor and its the most hostile environment imaginable.

BUt I will say that neither Washington or Tenn blitzed much because they didn't trust their secondary against Glenn, TO and Witten. The Philly secondary at this point is not much better.

While the book is blitz Bledsoe, if the O-line steps up they could pay dearly for it.

I'm not afraid of them but I do know we had better bring our best game on Sunday if we want to prevail.

If we'd played the Texans and Forty Niners and Giants people would probably be talking about our defense, too.

You have to pressure McNabb and dont let him out of the pocket. Also Westbrook will try and get matched up on Ellis. This is my biggest concern Ellis in space.
