Eagles game plan

[dfense]

What are the chances the Eagles try and spead the Cowboys out alot on Sunday.

With Kevin Curtis back now, and the fact that they had a hard time with the Cowboys base defense in Philly, Reid might figure to go four wide and get the Cowboys to go coverage and bring in Ball and Barbie.

Philly probably likes their chances running out of that against Barbie. It gets some of Dallas' best LB's off the field.

Isn't that what the Saints tried to pull? How did that work out?

If they decide to get unbalanced and go heavy throw, I think it works to our advantage. We will wear their defense down if they can't sustain drives and look to throw all day. Also, I think our front seven would love to pin their ears and go after McNabb. I worry more about their screen pass game than anything else.

I think it should be the same as it is against every other team. Pressure the quarterback, run the football.

Contain Jackson's big play potential on offense and special teams.
Limit the number of turnovers.

If the team takes care of the above, it will not matter what formation the Eagles' offense try during the game.

Because of their center situation and the way we've been getting pressure with just four rushing I doubt they try to spread our defense out. If anything, I think we'll see a lot of max protect with them playing conservatively on offense and hoping that their defense will pressure our offense into making mistakes.

This isn't really the time of year where teams do anything drastically different.

The Eagles know what they do best....they also have an idea of what worked on us in the first game. I expect them to come out firing.

If they've run a lot of four WR sets in the regular season, I'd expect them to do that some tomorrow.
