Not to downplay them... but the rest of their schedule has been: a split with WAS (5-5) and wins over DET (3-6), JAX (3-7), ARZ (4-6), PIT (3-6) and HOU (1-7-1). Can't control the schedule, but those aren't great teams. Plus, in their past five games, their defense has given up rushing totals of 152, 168, 144, 134, and 124 yards.
Also, our D has been effective in the past at keeping dynamic QB's in the hole. The big issue there is Kwity Paye being injured which will really hurt this week if he's out.
We have a real shot if the OL can string together consecutive games. And more importantly, stop turning the ball over. Because that's one thing PHI has been awesome at. Up until last night, they only had 3 giveaways all season and they were 8-0. Last night, they had 4 and earned their first loss.

I agree with everything you just said. I don't think Eagles are a juggernaut team. They have faced some weak teams for sure and won. Colts have faced some weak teams and lost or tied. Colts beat Chiefs thanks for Jones shooting himself in the foot.
It will come down to can OL hold up to the better DL Eagles team has compared to the other DLines we have folded on. Are Eagles DL great no, but they know how to get at the QB this year.. Is Ryan going to have his earlier turnover stats or is he going to take care of the ball?
I'm rooting Colts no matter what!
Go Colts!!!! |
