Their o-line when healthy is the best in the game. Even with two scrubs playing, did you see that downfield blocking? Peters and Kelce were sprinting down the field in the 4th quarter slamming guys all over. As I said in another thread, the Eagles have Cooper playing like crap, Foles looking very average, half an o-line, Maclin still finding his way back, and they still lead the league in points and yards. That's not by accident. They did stretch the field. Cooper dropped a ball for a TD he was catching last year. Maclin beat his man deep twice and Foles didn't get him the ball. He missed Ertz wide open on another play that probably would have been a TD. They got help from the refs (bad calls both ways all night), but when push came to shove, the Eagles moved the ball twice and scored, while the Colts didn't.
but it's not healthy... indy had no rush, so it didn't matter. They've lost mathis for a period of time, they loss barbrie, and johnson is suspended.....
give them a tougher rush... and I will credit them for covering foles.... because personally I feel like he's a statue....
they did run block well, but I don't think much of indy's d ...... Maclin I don't trust that he will stay healthy... but that's part luck as well.
but most definitely the eagles have weapons... no question.
fyi, the jags had 5 sacks, and forced foles into 3 turnovers.
