Team started 9-2 and basically shite in themselves the last 5 games. Losses on the road this year and made me a nega saint and I hate feeling that way. Going against a Philadelphia team on the road is a disaster waiting to happen. I just see no way we can stop McCoy consistently throughout the game to have a shot tonight. If we load the box, Foles is going to expose Harper and Jenkins deep with Jackson all night. Someone convince me we can win this game tonight!!

I been calling for that the last half of the season. I made a thread wanting Ingram to get 20+ carries at Carolina. Sean P is hard headed and will not do it.

Nega-Saint is not the right word i guess.....just having a hard time thinking we can win tonight with the road issues we have. Just a different team on road period.

Well hopefully Harper will be in the box and not back in coverage.

I beleive we can win considering Ohilly is the worst pass defense in the league and usually gets no pressure on anyone. Having said that Sean need to commit to the run tonight though.

It will be freezing and likely windy so the ball won't fly as well. If we can atleast be balanced I think we can win.

negasaint: " having a hard time thinking we can win tonight"

not much on "tell me _________ threads". I prefer a case made as to why not over those with just little faith. Make up your mind and express it.

The more I look at this game, the more I'm liking the prospects.

Three reasons why we will have a hard time winning this game. Harper,Jenkins and White. They will get lit up tonight. There....expressed enough?

Exactly. I'd feel a lot better if this defense weren't down both Greer and Vaccaro. Offense will probably have to score nearly 30 points to win and that's a tall order on the road in subpar conditions.

The teams we are to face in the NFC after philly...seattle then carolina or frisco all are not explosive in the pass game. This will help very much our depleted secondary. We beat them all. Then facing the high powered passing attack of denver all is lost according to the pundits and well...us. But sadly(poor roger) the zero degree weather and snow completly shuts down the passing games and Ingram gets the MVP and the ring in the super bowl.

We were in all those east coast games and really had the NE and Carolina game won.. The eagles defense does not have the type of dline or defense that typically gives the Saints fits.. of course anything can happen..

Shady would obviously scare any opponent he faces. But if you have paid attention to how Rob Ryan approaches each team then you know that he always focuses on eliminating their best player. It forces teams to switch gears and beat us some other way which allows his unique packages to be successful.

Basically we are all in on stopping Shady which makes this a Brees vs Foles matchup and that favors us greatly. Foles is good but has zero experience in this situation especially compared to Drew. Not to mention Phillys pass coverage is terrible and they rely on the blitz for disruption... Brees is the best in the league at carving up the blitz if you hadn't noticed.

If we establish any type of run game then our offense can easily allow our defense to win this game.

I'll go that 2 of 3 were good enough to win a Super Bowl against Peyton manning.

Who's gonna be hunting these dudes? Nick Foles?

Now who is first ballot HOFer Drew Brees hunting? Bradley Fletcher, Cary Williams, Nate Allen, & Patrick Chung. This group has given up more passing yards than any other NFL defense. Second most 1st downs allowed. Only 37 sacks. I'll take Brees vs these and Foles against our DBs all day long.

I'll even say Harper's assets will prevail over his weaknesses this game. Should be a force in the box as they key on shutting down McCoy.

I predict that the small amount of our fans that are going to Philly will be saying how they feared for their lives in that stadium.

All bc we are gonna beat their arse and we all know the city of brotherly love can't handle a loss like this.
