For the Eagles

The Eagles come into the playoffs on fire, and playing extremely well, they have a multidimensional offense led by Mcnabb and Westbrook
Image
They also have a tough aggressive defense, that will blitz a lot and get after the qb

For the Vikings
Running the ball is our game, and we have to be able to do that effectively, to open up the pass and keep the pressure (of the playoffs and the eagles) off of TJax
Image
its on his shoulders, he got us here and he'll carry us forward
Tavarias Jackson needs to play like he did in Arizona
Defense needs to get after Mcnabb, pressure him into making mistakes, stuff the run

It's win or go home from here on out, we're at home, let's get physical with them and win this

GO VIKINGS

I'm seeing that too. I feel like the Vikings are being underestimated, especially if Pat Williams is playing.

that will be good, changes the game big time, eagles won't be so keen to run up the middle anymore
and even if he isn't 100% there will be less double teams on Kevin just because Pat is there
