Skins vs Eagles Pre Game Thread

If we can keep the dump offs to the backs in check we could be ok. That's pretty much all Foles has been doing. He hasn't been as effective when trying to go down the field as he was last year.

Hmmmm, I wonder if not having DJax has something to do with that.

hopefully the new 'hats around the ball' emphasis will result in those dump offs not going for much and the eagles bailing on it as a scheme quickly.

i think the key is going to be with the d line and pressure on foles. if our d can make them go 3 and out and get after foles, and cousins can string together some LSD (even if it's only 3 points each), then we'll be good to go.

i think we'll come out firing. the key is going to be to step on their throats and not let them hang around. they've come back twice that way so far...
