My team, the eagles



























Ok. So i'm very happy about the win. Eli, great game. Maybe next year. To bad you didn't have a 6'5 wide receiver to throw the ball in the general vicinity of. Maybe you would've won if he didn't shoot himself. ok. More importantly, the cardinals are the next test. The two teams met on Thanksgiving, with Mcnabb throwing 4 touchdowns and leading the eagles to an easy victory. However, this wont be the case this time around, as the Cardinals are playing much better. The Cardinals are a totally different test than the Giants or Vikings. They are a throwing team, and threw the ball over 65% of the time. The highest in the NFL. However, Edgerin James and the cardinals running game have played well in the two games. But. They will have to play even better against the second best running defense of the Eagles. Their defensive line and linebackers have excellent discipline and always cover their respective areas. Hopefully it will be a long day for the cardinals running game. This leaves the throwing game. I believe the Eagles can easily slow down Kurt Warner, the veteran leader. Jim Johnson must come up with various pass rush schemes to knock Warner down. I believe the Mcnabb and the eagles will easily maneuver past the 19th ranked cardinals defense. I believe time of possession will win this game. Since the Eagles defense is playing so hungrily lately, eagles win.

  1. This is a biased prediction!! just kidding. I agree with your assessment. Who do you think they'll play, Steelers or Ravens? EIther one will be quite a challenge for either the Cardinals or Eagles.
