They're just giving them 3 for being at home so for all intents and purposes Vegas doesn't wanna touch this one and it's a pick em. We're gonna really see what this defense is made of this week though and if we're for real. I hope kendricks can play because that would really take some pressure off the gameplan for containing Newton.
We're only 2 weeks removed from that pathetic performance against Washington. I need to see a little more still.They're just giving them 3 for being at home so for all intents and purposes Vegas doesn't wanna touch this one and it's a pick em.

Defense is for real, in my mind, no doubt........it's the running game that is the big question mark combined with Bradfords' lack of accuracy, so far.
I was just reading this and Jenkins intercepted. You didn't even mention him.If you know football, then you already know about the offensive changes, so the points will come under the Chip Kelly system.
So, I'll start with the defensive backs.
Maxwell, Walter Thurmond III, E.J. Biggars (with a name like that, you just got to be an Eagle!). Now, you can exhale.
After them, we have Kendricks, Alonso, Brandon Graham, and draftee Jordan Hicks (whose gonna be a big talent).
On the defensive line, we made little changes, cause if it ain't broke, then don't fix it.
So, I'll digress. We will be one of the best defensive groups in the NFL this year. Oh, and did I mention, we'll score too!
Be afraid, be very afraid.........especially if you are a 'Cowgirlz' fan.
I would have taken cam and no points. Philly doesn't have a good enough offence from what I'm seeing. It's still a game though.I'm feeling a little hesitant about playing Carolina, but, just a little. Keep in mind that Carolina is the weakest undefeated team. Let me get the bad stuff outta the way, first. Carolina has a high ranked pass defense, so Bradford has to limit the interceptions. We don't have a real deep ball anymore, so just nix that out of the game plan. One thing is certain tho', we have to rely on our run game........no more if's, can's, or but's!
Now, for the good stuff. Our defense is especially good at stopping the run, which is Carolinas' strength. Cam will have to get pass happy which will create multiple sacks (thanks, Fletcher!) and turnovers from our very fast defense.
I'd like to say that we will win by 17, but I'm not a total fool. I see a close game with the Eags prevailing by 3. Vegas has Carolina favored at that ugly 3 number, but I think we are a slight underlay, tho' very slight.
It's every week man. This week it was 7 drops which is a team record and most by and NFL team in a long time. But every week it's at least 4 or 5 and it's ALWAYS a drive stalling drop. It's in their heads now it's like a chuck knoblach syndrome kind of thing. But I'm not gonna pretend that it's our only problem. Bradford isn't good enough to throw receivers open right now even if they ARE catching everything.I've heard it said on this MB that one player cannot lose a game or WTTE. Not true. That one receiver, Mathews I believe, totally screwed the Eagles. He alone sabotaged Stafford's brave attempts to get the team down field and in the end zone. What mystifies me is why a player performing that badly is left in the game. ANY receiver is better than one that drops every ball in his direction. Kelly apparently does not believe in the saying "next man up".
Not only that, but there really is no next man up with receivers. You're usually lucky just to have 1 that can get open frequently. This week miles Austin stepped up and got open at crucial times to get first downs but there's really nothing else we can use. Riley cooper is a starting wide receiver on this team. That tells you right there how bad it is. I wish I had access to game tape so I could see the routes these guys are running. You don't get to see that shit on tv. I'm imagining Riley cooper out running routes like randy moss when he takes a play off.
