Re: Skins vs Eagles week 1
I love the NFL Films clip of Griffin yelling "It's our night!". It will be again. A small personnel wish that might be discouraged here, is that I hope Reed Doughty, not Meriweather, starts at S. The up tempo that the Eagles are going to run will be stressful on a guy who has been in and out of practice. Doughty on the other hand has enough ST work that he is definitely well conditioned. We might lose some in coverage/big hits, but he will keep the running lanes clogged, and Rambo will just have to hold his own. Probably a tough task at first, but as many have pointed out, he is smart and learns.
The offense will be truly on fire. No doubt in my mind, Griffin when healthy gets BIG games and isn't going to shrink or wither on a Monday night stage, and the offense will follow his lead!
40 - 17 Skins seems right to me. Jackson will get a score, maybe two of defensive miscues, but it's not going to be a dogfight in any sense of the word.
Defense of the NFCE title starts on MNF!!!
