Re: Saints seek ways to slow Eagles' fast-paced offense
 
I'll take 60-40. All the teams in the playoffs are there for a reason . The eagles make a living running the ball. We will struggle if we let them keep time of possession in their favor. They take care of the football and we must too.I don't think that the Eagles Defense gets enough credit . IMHO this will be a game that see saws back and forth with a end of game drive for the win.Turnovers as always will be crucial. This should be a fun one to watch .If we play as we are capable of playing we are a better team by a small margin.

This is a tough game to pick. The Eagles are very fast on offense with Mcoy and Jackson. They run an effective fast paced offense and Foles doesn't turn the ball over. They also run the ball very effectively. I think the Saints need to find a way to run the ball against the Eagles. The Eagles are a good team but I do think the Saints are better. I predict we'll be able to score points on the Eagles and eventually we'll get to Foles enough to win the game by 10 pts or more. Of course I see the world through black and gold goggles so who knows. WHO DAT!

saints can not play out of control and overly aggressive our this game will turn in another seattle nightmare. i did not like what i saw in the saints defense against tampa. i fear they did not learn their lesson in seattle. philli will use over purist against us. stay home is my advice.

discipline discipline discipline discipline discipline discipline discipline

That applies to both sides of the ball. Butterfingers, tipped balls, and forced passes have killed us all season on the road. The Eagles D has lived by the turn over this season, we've died from them.

Looks like "stating the obvious", round 3.....
