If we lose this game then Barry should definitely be fired, because while we do struggle to get off the field on 3rd downs, that comes because we're facing talents like Larry Fitzgerald, AJ Green, OBJ, Dez Bryant and Cole Beasley, etc. etc. The Eagles don't have anybody that can threaten you on 3rd downs the way our previous opponents have. If we can't find a way to get off the field against the Eagles, given our secondary talent, then A) I'll be surprised and B) it will definitely be time to fire Joe Barry.

Like I said, when a team has a deficiency as bad as the Eagles do at WR, it makes the gameplanning so painfully obvious. They're going to want to run at us. We should know it, and we should take steps to stop it.

This isn't buckle up and hold on for dear life as you try to limit Larry Fitzgerald and hope for the best. This is take away the one thing the Eagles are at all capable of: running. And we'll be fine.
