Skins vs Eagles week 1

[CultBrennan59]

The only thing that scares me about the eagles is that we haven't seem their offense yet. But like others have said, there isn't anything London Fletcher hasn't seen in his 16 years in the league.

Remember June Jones/Mouse Davis run and shoot offense? How did it do in the NFL.

Well every team has part of that offense in their playbook. They just don't run it all the time.

I think as far as Kelly is concerned, right now he has a QB that turns the ball over too much and can't stay healthy. I think some weeks it will work and others where they won't get first downs and throw their defense back on the field. This type of offense isn't anything the NFL hasn't seen...Buffalo and the Benglas ran it back in the 80's early 90's. Those offenses just didn't have all the misdirection and window dressing.

The Eagles have a terrible offensive line and only 3 offensive weapons: Vick, McCoy, and Jackson. They have a new offense and a new head coach.

Meanwhile, we have a good offensive line anchored by a Pro Bowler at LT; top-notch offensive threats in RG3, Morris, Garcon, and Davis; an excellent 3rd down back in Helu; a very solid receiving corps behind Garcon; and a top-tier fullback. We have a veteran, Super Bowl winning coach and a proven offense. Clearly, at the very worst, our offense will keep up with theirs.
