Questions from an Eagles Fan

[Verse]

Hi Panther Fans,

Sorry about your loss to the cardinals, I really wish that we were playing this game in Carolina for the rematch, but stuff happens.

I had a few questions about this cardinals game. I am over seas and didnt get a chance to see your game.

1) By looking at the stat lines it looks like the Arizona D had a great day, however looking at the stats doesnt tell the entier story. Cardinals fans are posting how their team dominated on both aspect of the ball. Is that how it happened? Or was it pure bad qb play

How good does is this teams secondary? I see this game different than most. all keep saying how the eagles d needs to stop this high powered cards offense. I see the eagles giving this cardinal team fits. we played the vikings and giants and would say that both of those defenses are much better then arizona. Am I right?

Thanks for your reponses in advance

We killed ourselves that day. Bad offensive playcalling and a generic defensive scheme that wasn't tailored to oppose any specific offenses. You think we'd have that for a playoff game, but that's not panthers ball apparently. There's no reason to be afraid of their defense. You just have to hope that your team commits to running a balanced attack on offense.

Just make sure Donovan doesnt choke and give Arizona the ball 6 times and you'll have as good a chance as anybody to beat them.

They only had one weapon, so to make it fair, we chose not to cover him.

I have a feeling the Eagles are gonna play like we should've played and didn't. What ever happens, I don't see the Cardinals winning a blowout.

our QB lost the game for us.. plain and simple..

their front did get a bit of consistent pressure.. their secondary just jumped routes all game.. and with Jake's lazy throws with no zip, they got to them easy..

their run D is where Westbrook and Buckhalter should gash them.. Mcnabb should have any problems picking apart their secondary..

as far as your D vs their O.. your blitzing scheme is probably the anti-christ for Warner.. if your team isnt stupid and too full of pride to double cover Fitz, you should be fine.. you have the corners to take out Fitz and cover Breaston..

is Boldin playing?? i havent kept up since we lost.. if he is playing, you might have a bit tougher time.. but i still think if you play Your game, you win easily..

thank you all for your responses. I chose to come here because I know your fan base is a knowlegeable one like ours. You should see their boards. lol Ask them what a two deep zone is and they will tell you they dont discuss suns basketball on their boards

the first game Don played in after being benched was a 48-20 ass whooping of Arizona. Arizona is hot right now and they will be dangerous at home, but Philly is just as dangerous and has all the tools to beat a team like Zona.

cardinals D has been two faced this year. one week they allow 40+. another they are getting safeties and breaking romo's pinky.

Really Verse the Eagles can beat the Cards but you must stick to your gameplan that made your team win. Don't come in like we did with something different and screw up bad. Then panic and screw up worse. The key to taking out their offense is COVER Fitz!!! and Rush Warner !! if you do that 3 and out all day long. Thier defense is ok...nothing special, let Westbrook run it and throw in a little accurate passing by McNabb and Pow!!!...Instant Win. And make sure McNabb is not color blind like Jake was.... Eagles 31 Cards 17...

its a simple gameplan

Knock Warner out of the game ..

Its hard to throw to FITZ & Boldin if your out or on your back all day

On Offense

Run Run Run and screen pass the Cards to death

That is where their weakness is ,and will open up Jackon & Curtis

when I first saw your score I was so so so excited. I was like the Carolina Panthers just gave us a gift! An easy trip to the bowl.. (please dont take that the wrong way) Ill take a walk in the park (Cardinals) vesus an all out brawl (Panthers)

[photoguync]

Woulda coulda shoulda... it's enough to make me want to cry. I think the iggles can win, but it probably won't be a gimmee. The Card's statium will be a madhouse.

[Kyle82]

The only factor against the Eagles is that they are playing in a dome with some hysterical Card fans that have never seen their team go this far...but as long as Fitzgerald is contained and Mcnabb does'nt have 6 turnovers, you guys should be heading to Tampa for your next game.
