Eagles are saying we ran up the score so they will arrive with a chip on their shoulder. Will be a tough game, Foles is better than Wentz.

But I suppose last season when they played the Vikings they didn't run up the score.

IMO TA is the most important player (see Dallas game) on offense not named Drew Brees. Hope he can gut it out on Sunday.

Tie that arm up to his tittie and he’ll still be productive that Kat is the difference in our o

Both teams have nothing to lose now that it’s playoff time. Look for Sean to pull some ballsy plays.
I don’t care if he has to go back to just using Kamara and Thomas if he has to. It was working. Problem was risk of injury. Doesn’t matter now. Win at all cost. Another game is not a given.

It's a small thing, but I noticed a couple of times in the Bears/Eagles game, that Sproles bobbled the ball and one time where he nearly almost muffed a punt. I'm figuring that if I saw it, then our defensive coordinator and players saw it, too. I'm willing to bet Morstead boots him a one-hopper and tries to make him miss, and I bet our guys on defense will be reaching in there trying to punch the ball out from the little guy's grasp. Just something I noticed, because of course I keep my eye on Sproles, love that guy. But he definitely bobbled it a few times on Sunday. Something to look out for.

True. Foles is a good player however he doesn't push defenses around.

According to stats, he's thrown 5 INT's over the last 2 weeks. I saw quite a few ducks thrown last week. D line pressure will be key.

** Trivia question for B&G **

Q: When was the last time Nick Foles lost a playoff game????

A: It was against the Saints

Cover Ertz and Tate and we're good or should I say golden.

FWIW, the Saints game was in the regular season, the iggles was for the NFCC.
