The biggest key to the game

[StanleySpadowski]

Is Spears, Olshansky and Bowen/Hatcher.



They really need to get some push but not lose their position. Ware and Spencer will get the edge but after watching all the Eagles games, most of McNabb's deep plays have come when he steps up to avoid edge pressure.

When Ratliff gets push, McNabb will angle to avoid him but if one of the others is there, he won't get the free run deep ball that the Eagles have lived and died by all year.

For me the biggest key is protect the ball. Eagles will be stripping at the ball and trying to create turnovers. I think if Dallas can do a good job protecting the ball we will win the other major battles.

If our D-Line gets the push they got in the last game, it's going to be another very long day for D McRib.

Agree. Win the turnover battle AND convert turnovers into points.

there are many keys.

The two biggest to me are

1. No Turnovers

2. Continue giving the eagles horrible field position.

Norm finally talked about this today, I have felt all along, we won these two games against them because we did such a good job covering kicks and punts.

that game in philly when johnson got the penalty and we had to kick to jackson again and we stopped him the second time too was impressive.

Add in reduce/eliminate costly penalties...

There are the usual several important issues but field position and not giving up the big play are the most important. I'll throw in our response to pressure as they will bring the house this game.

No TOs, and limit the sacks. The team that makes fewest negative plays wins Saturday.
