sableholic Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Dont know if this has been mentioned anywhere already, but according to nfl.com stats we still have the #1 defense. pretty impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebowski Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 The D is playing great so far. Those weren't exactly offensive powerhouses we just played though. Dallas will test our secondary. We need to put pressure on Vinny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLiNT0N P0RTiS Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Oh but we will knowing Gregg Williams! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrfriedm Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Yes we need to put pressure on Vinny, but the Giants did expose some weaknesses in our D. We need to be able to get pressure on the QB, but still defend the pass out to the running back in the flat. If we can't stop that then we are in for a long season.

Mr. S Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 yeh, the defense didnt allow much yards to the Giants. The cowboys have a weaker running game now that Jones is out. The passing game will definitely test us hardcore though, im hoping Taylor is up to speed for this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jones Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Williams just needs to continuously pressure Vinny. Leave him alone and he will find the open receiver. Dallas has a good set of receivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun Kao Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Lets take this #1 defense ranking with a grain of salt. We've played two teams that really aren't the cream of the crop in the NFL. If our #1 ranking survives this next Monday nights game, then we may have something to crow about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gridironmike Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Hang your hat on whatever you have. #1 is nothing to be ashamed of. You can't help who is on the schedule. If you're #1 against teams you should be #1 against, you are doing your job. I think we'd all agree the offense and special teams are the units that need the most improvement.

afparent Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Don't blame our schedule. Everyone is annointing the Eagles as superbowl champs and they beat two non playoff teams at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aspkikn Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I'll be happy if we are top ten at the end of the year considering where we were last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerpsEagles Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Originally posted by bubba9497 eagle D ranked #31 actually... the Eagles D is #12 in scoring defense...... but you keep on posting away if that makes your day bubba...... let me know if they start awarding wins for yards instead of points.

Vegas-Born Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 On the money Terp. yards don't mean squat for the offense if you don't score...yards don't mean squat against you if they get into the endzone. Was it Bettis in week one that had a whopping 4 yards on five carries with THREE TD's. Ill take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
