On paper your right however how often have you seen a game being billed one way and turns out different? Philly may come into that came loading up the box to stop the run and with Dez back he could end up with a heck of a day. We will see how it plays out but I think we will see defenses really loading the box up on Dallas and the Cowboys along with Dak will need to make the pay for doing it.

once Logan went out the Eagles couldnt stop the run,the Skins made sure Cox didnt make the play and they had no answer

If Detroit and Washington can move the em so can the Cowboys. The defense will give Wentz the short stuff all day long. Division game but I see a similar game to Green Bay unfolding.

I hope not,Eagles will prefer this because they cant protect Wentz right now.Make him go over the top.

This appears to be what the Skins did. Try to take the short stuff away and make him hold the ball.

Only problem is we don't come close to having edge rushers like Kerrigan and Smith.

Logan will be key. If he's out against us, we should be able to run. If he's playing, it could be tougher. The last couple of years we claimed we are going to run over the Eagles defensive front with our OL and yet the Eagles have probably played our OL better than any other team. That being said, that was a 3-4 defense in recent years and this is now a 4-3.

I just can't wait for that game. The stadium is going to be rockin'.

If Wentz even survives the Minny game, took 5 sacks against Washington. Lane Johnson suspension hurts them

That Minny/Phil game is going to be fun to watch. You know they're going to bring pressure all game on Carson. Will be great seeing him get rocked, if Philly even let's him throw more than 3 yards.

Legit possibility he's in a full body cast by next week

Kerrigan had a great day mostly because Logan was out.

Kerrigan ain't no slouch but Logan is waaayyyy better competition for him.

I totally agree with your skins defensive game plan analogy. Exactly what they did.

Wentz had the deer in the headlights-itus.

 

[pugilist]

isn't Bennie Logan questionable as well? huge blow if he ends up being out

edit: he is "week-to-week with a significant groin strain, could miss several weeks

Maybe it was because Lane was out?

I am interested to see how the Eagles fare next week. Their defense got ripped and the penalties are out of control. And that poor wretch they have at RT looked so out of his league.

Teams seem to have accumulated enough film on Wentz to have somewhat of a handle on his tendencies.

We'll see if that benefits the Cowboys.

You must of missed the article this morning were they said the Commanders had best Oline on Sunday. We are not even close to this formidable unit that are running the NFL east these days. Just because they ran well against Philly, doesn't mean we can do the same thing.

Better yet there is now footage of the Philly RT.

It was because Lane JOhnson was out. But the point is the Skins had an edge rusher who could take advantage of Johnson being out. I am not sure we have that type of player who can exploit that.

And yet Vegas made them only 2 point dogs against Minny. That's a bizarrely low line.

He had a great day because Lane Johnson finally started his suspension. It was evident with the rookie starting at RT. He was eaten up all day and I expect the same when they play us.

 

[JBell]

Wentz is gonna have a difficult time finding open targets with Philly's average group of WR's vs. the strength of our defense, the secondary.

 

[AsthmaField]

The Philly coaches won't ever leave that right tackle out to dry again like they did this past weekend. They had over rated his abilities and left him in some one-on-one's. They know better than that now and will give him some help. It will still hurt the offense some because they'll be providing resources to blocking... but they'll plug that hole somewhat on the right side. It's not gonna be a freeway to Wentz again.
