This would be a good game to get everything straightened out.

Yup... though whether that will happen...

 

[Darrell Green Fan]

Yeah this should be no problem for the Eagles. The Rams still suck.

 

[HubertJubberman]

28-13 Eagles. I have an unusual bad feeling about this game. Shady and Sproles need to have great games to compensate for the o line injuries and get pressure off of the passing game.

 

[DaEagles]

Eagles should win this game. The Rams DL is their strength but I read somewhere that they have only 1 sack this year so far.

Playing a scrub QB (who is playing pretty decent actually).

I think Chip realizes he needs to get back to getting Shady/Sproles the ball more out in space. Lane being back will help some on the right side of the line. Hopefully Shady will start cuttin it up a little instead of running to the sidelines.

Now lets see if Foles can quit lookin like shit for a game.

Eagles Win this - 27-20

Has Shadys running problem been his own decisions or poor O Line executions?

 

[Raid]

Shady will go over 100 yds. The planets will be re-aligned. Birds 37 Rams 17

 

[Deano]

Eagles 38-20.

Love to see a blowout Eagles win but I'll just take a W. Then beat NYG next week & go into the bye at 5-1. The schedule gets much tougher then.

Get Mathis/Kelce back & we should be ok.

Biggest advantage imo for Rams in this game is that they had last week off. Though that could lead to them being a bit rusty early in game. Imperative for Eagles to get good start imo.

Eagles 24-16 WIN.

 

[swat]

Also hoping the 49ers lose as many as possible & miss the playoffs. Which I think is certainly possible given their schedule. Hate to have that loss come back to bite us in playoff seeding.

Going to be tough game, Rams strength is their defense, Eagles defensively really can't stop anyone so I expect the rookie no name QB to put up points against us. Going to come to down to special teams and our O lines ability to block. I expect Johnson to be rusty. Hope that week 2 for Tobin and Molk starting will garner better results. I would not be surprised if we lose this game.

Um....fyi it's the offense that has been our bright spot this year...

 

[DaEagles]

IMO both. He's had plenty of times to turn it up field and get a few yards, yet instead, he keeps tryin to get outside and gets nothing.

 

[DaEagles]

Get Mathis/Kelce back & we should be ok.

When are they supposed to be back? Hope it's as close to after the bye as possible.

Mathis cant come back until the Panthers game, which is the 3rd game after the bye. Our 9th game of the season. Kelce has said he is also targeting that game. So we have to get through at least 4 more games.

St.Lo., NYG, bye, at Zona, at Houston...Carolina. The sooner the better. Especially for Kelce.

Like to at least be 6-2 going into the Carolina game.

I benched Foles in favor of Philip Rivers in fantasy so look for Nick to go wild....

 

[swat]

Foles has awesome stats following losses.

I started Nick Foles today over Andy Daulton in my keeper league. I think Foles throws 4 td's today.

I hope so to, and I hope they are all to Ertz
