The whole key to this game is getting pressure on Brady while only rushing 4

Eagles are 23rd in the league in adjusted sack rate (factoring in % of sacks on pass attempts). Qb pressure from the d line is NOT their strength.

The strength of eagles d line is stopping the run. Pats don’t run the ball. I think the key matchup is going to be NE crossing routes and isolating slot receivers (amendola) on phillys lbs. the lbs are not very strong for philly.

Flip side, eagles want to run no surprise. But pats completely shut down fournette especially second half. Eagles don’t attempt many passes and it is usually play action or a shot downfield hence the high yard per attempt despite low game totals. If the run is less of a threat play action won’t work as well.
