Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Trent Cole anxious to exploit matchup with New Orleans Saints rookie left tackle Terron Armstead

Attached Thumbnails · 01-03-2014, 08:05 AM

It's another week and another enormous challenge for New Orleans Saints rookie left tackle Terron Armstead.

Armstead, who will be making his initial playoff appearance Saturday against Philadelphia in just his third start, will have his hands full taking on Eagles veteran outside linebacker Trent Cole a good part of their NFC wild-card matchup.

Cole has certainly taken notice of the youngster, who was elevated over veteran Charles Brown after the loss at St. Louis. The Eagles' regular-season sacks leader is clearly looking at Saturday night as an opportunity.

"He's very athletic, but he's got some weak spots," said Cole, who had eight sacks, 15 quarterback pressures and 10 tackles for loss during the regular season and ranks second on the team's all-time career sacks list with 79. "That's the thing, man, going into the game you take advantage of them. I see they helped him out with a bunch of chips and stuff, and it's helped out.

"But it's a challenge for him, and it's a challenge for me. Every game is different, every player is different."

When asked if he expects the Saints to provide Armstead help against him Saturday, Cole replied, "They'd better."

I love when players run their mouth. He just earned himself extra attention for the game.

I'm sure he will line up wide right...

:/

Frozen ground will help him keep his footing. A lot to ask of a rookie but he'll be alright. I'm also factoring in the countless times players talk trash and don't deliver which is almost every time.

Hope we **** him up like we shut up the safety from Carolina.

I can't stand when ppl talk trash about that aren't good or on the down end of their career talk trash like cole has figured out the biggest secret on earth. Armstead is a rookie he going to have weak spots. Oh trent and by the way you aren't as good as you used to be. Seems like the arrogance of the pompous chip kelly has rubbed off on his players.

Who is this Cole and why is he running his mouth?

He's primarily a bull rusher so Armstead has to anchor.
