Foles had that same quick release in 2013, and the Saints had Greer and a couple of lesser talented corners, especially in the slot. They beat the Eagles in Philadelphia with Foles in the wildcard game in 2013 in 30something degree weather. This Saints team on both offense and defense is better than that 2013 team.The key to the defense in this game will be overcoming the quick release rhythm nature of Foles game. I believe it was NFL playbook that said the saints must jamm at the LoS and disrupt the timing, while giving the Dline and linebackers time to get home.
If that is in fact the game plan going in, and the DBs succeed, the defense pass rush will look like the heroes. The bottom line to me is that this game comes down to our DBs being physical.
