Our defense last yr from what i remember looked lost against their hurry up,plus with Sproles they upgraded
I dont think our defense can hang and i see Sproles having another big game

Replacing Fletcher helps in the speed department, he was targeted heavily last year vs Chip. Plus this is the 3rd go around for Haslett against this offense.

The Pigeons likely will score some points. That said, we have a better pass rush than last year. We won't look as lost when Foles is on his back.

I hope you and Matty are right,that Sproles matchup has me worried,can only hope when he is targeted its a bad pass or he drops it.
Not many teams have someone that can cover Shady and or Sproles coming out of the backfield,thats a tough matchup for anyone.
Speaking of which I wish the skins threw more to their backs,dont think anyone is afraid of our backs coming out of the backfield
Occasionally a rb is thrown a bone but not very often and when it does its usually Helu on 3rd down
Wish we had someone like Shady whos a threat to take it to the house on any play
Seastrunk had that capability to catch a pass out of the backfield and take it to the house but he's gone,maybe Redd could but he's not going to see the field unless Helu or Morris get hurt
Maybe coach could design some plays with Jackson in the backfield and Helu spread out to get some favorable matchups

His name is Keenan Robinson he will have the speed to stop this, Fletcher couldn't
