Yep. That O line looked absolutely wonderful against the 24th ranked Atlanta total defense.Looked great against the 18th ranked Carolina total defense, too.
Let's just see how good they look after they face the #3 combined ranked Eagles defense (4th ranked rushing defense, 3rd against the pass), this time around. I'll listen to you then.
Eagles do the same thing the Giants did last year. Beat the Cowboys in the playoffs and take it all the way.
I say the eagles get a woopin.....
Eagles had a better record than the Cards in the regular season in a much tougher division.... the only reason the Cardinals are even in the playoffs to begin with is the atrocious division they are in. The NFC west needs to re-organize, cuz an automatic berth in the playoffs for having a better record than the Seahawks, Rams and 49ers is a joke. I guess people forget the 4 TD performance McNabb turned in last time he faced the Cards' 28th ranked defense. That he was sitting on the bench watching the practice quarterback take reps at the end of the third quarter. Carolina was over-rated at the start of the season (defense ranked only 12th at the end) , and showed just how much by putting up that stinker of a game last week. Philly meanwhile has gone through all of it's divisional rivals (including winning in Dallas and NY) to get where it is, and has been among the top 5 teams throughout the season in both offense (5th) and defense(4th), even though they needed help to get into the playoffs. Eagles are going be firmly in control by halftime. McNabb will be in a lounge chair by the start of the 4th quarter, on his palm pilot booking tickets to Florida.
You should realize your stats need to be weighted, not by your heart. Let's just see how good they look after they face the #3 combined ranked Eagles defense (4th ranked rushing defense, 3rd against the pass), this time around. I'll listen to you then.
You really do not watch the games, instead you recite the drivel you get from ESPN. Please, keep scuba diving, us men will talk about football.GO CARDS!!!
And, did you REALLY just say "dominated the Rams" as a compliment to the Cardinals? That's pretty much the funniest thing I've heard all season.Final score 31-17 Eagles.
I admit they played a great game against a Carolina team that was fat and happy and looking past them, and who couldn't defensively match up with them. That being said;The Eagles have one of the deepest secondaries in the game. They can and will match up in single coverage on the AZ receivers, freeing up blitzers. (They did this last time they played AZ, and put Warner on the turf again and again, forcing him to release earlier than he wanted. Resulting in 3 interceptions and 2 FF's) Carolina couldn't do that. And the AZ running game...lol. TD's set up from a yard out by your pass offense isn't a running game. Hightower lacks the speed, and James lacks the interest anymore. Westbrook has more yards rushing than both of them, combined. (Hightower 399, James 514, Westbrook 936) And, did you REALLY just say "dominated the Rams" as a compliment to the Cardinals?
