Eagles:
Who is this man? McNabb has looked awful aside from one game this year. Teams have brought pressure against him all year long, coming off that 12 game sack where his is mind? Bad news for us, we cant pressure QB's. McNabb might actually find his stride.
If healthy Westbrook is probably going to go off against us. He excels in the running back screens and is tough to tackle. However he is one hit away from being taking out of a game.
Curtis has had only one good game thus far and Brown has yet to do anything. However if we cant pressure McNabb these two should have a solid day. Revis l Barrett l Dyson should match up good though.
Jets
Which Chad is showing up? Will it be the efficient Chad we all know, or will it be the turnover prone QB? Pennington needs to come out sharp and FINISH strong. Eagles will apply pressure all day long.
Ferguson played Osi great last week, only yielding one sack late in the game. Making that three weeks that he went up against an elite DE. This week will be no different. He will see a mix between Trent Cole and Jevon Kearse, the Eagles love to switch them around.
With the Eagles you expect the screens to come. This is where Vilma should be able to make the most impact. Screens will allow him to run around on the field. He needs to do a good job recognizing them as they develop.
Keys To the Game:
Dont allow McNabb to get comfortable in the pocket.
Make Westbrook top priority.
Pennington must keep us in the game.
Jones must show a pulse, but get the carries.
Our defense must show a pulse.
Bottom line is that this is a game both teams need. They should be fighting for all four quarters.
