Eagles' Sheldon Brown: "You don't fool with him." article 9/18

I think the wildcard in this game will be the play of our defense...We all know how good the Eagles' defense and our Offense are...Their offense can be scary as well with a healthy McNabb...But one thing our defense has shown the ability to do is force turnovers, throughout preseason and into the Det game, we forced 3 turnovers a game except for the last Preseason game against Miami.

Against another first time starter in Kolb, I really believe we will continue this trend, and hopefully get that first Defensive score that Williams has been calling for...If we force 2 or more takeaways and/or get a defensive score, the Eagles will have a very tough time...JMO

The Eagles O didn't look great on Sunday. If I recall correctly, I think they only really had 1 impressive drive. Their D gave them 5 INTs which resulted in either a TD or great field position (most of the time), they got a fumble, and punt returned for a TD.

I'm not saying they aren't a good O, but Sunday wasn't necessarily a good showing for them.
