The key to stopping the Eagles will be three things....
1. Pressure: Foles is very poised especially against pressure, but he lacks the mobility of other QB's the Saints have played. Foles reminds me of a young Carson Palmer. Big arm and above average accuracy who makes plays and limits interceptions. If you can pressure him early and often and build a lead then you definitely have the upper hand.
2. Stopping the run: This is the main thing that scares me. McCoy is very versatile and fast. The Saints must spend a ton of time planning to stop the running game and make the inexperienced QB beat them.
3. Covering the TE: If there is any time you will see the void left by missing Kenny Vacarro it is going to be this week against Celek. Celek is defintely the safe button for Foles and he uses it often. Roman harper covering Celek really scares me.

I agree... The ONLY way Harper has success against Celek is of Harper mans up and consistently jams him off LOS. Or maybe some defensive chipping from the DEs. If Celek gets free releases results will be touchdown or big play. Let's hope Harper(along with everyone else) brings his A game and plays physical and smart.

I agree fully with your assessment. ESPECIALLY THE BOLD! Ryan is going to need to figure out a way to get Harper some help. Be it rolling coverages, or inserting Bush or Frampton on third downs to key on Celek. He could also have Jenkins man up on Celek the entire game; although this scares me as well being that you never know what you will get from ole Jenkins!

I think McCoy may be the best RB in the league. Peterson is great, but McCoy makes people miss, he can catch and run, break tackles....he's just a beast. If some no name from St. Louis went for 130 against this defense....
