USA Today - Match-up

NFL previews: Week 10 - USATODAY.com

WASHINGTON REDSKINS (3-5) at PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (4-4)

Sunday, 1 p.m. ET, Fox
Surface: Grass. Sheridan's line: Eagles by 7.
Keys to the game: Eagles QB Donovan McNabb has a 41.3 first-half passer rating in the team's past three games, but he's also been the victim of dropped passes. Philadelphia has come under fire for being too pass-happy, but the temptation will be there again with McNabb working against a secondary that has allowed a league-high 35 completions of 20 yards or longer. But RB Brian Westbrook (sore knee) could get more than the 19.5 touches he has averaged in seven games. Washington desperately needs to attack Philadelphia's undersized run defense, but if WR Santana Moss doesn't play, the Eagles can load up vs. RB Clinton Portis.

Fast facts: Redskins: QB Mark Brunell is 4-0 in his career vs. Philadelphia. Eagles: McNabb is 8-4 vs. Washington.

TV announcers: Dick Stockton, Daryl Johnston, TonySiragusa.

Injuries:

Redskins: Questionable: TE Christian Fauria (ankle), WR Santana Moss (hamstring). Probable: WR David Patten (hamstring), TE Chris Cooley (shoulder), T Jon Jansen (calf), CB Carlos Rogers (thumb).

Eagles: Probable: DT Mike Patterson (hand), CB Lito Sheppard (hand), RB Brian Westbrook (ankle).

I don't see the dropped passes getting any easier for McNabb in this game. Secondary picks up their game, McNabb's passer rating goes down.

Redskins win!

Eagles by 7?! HA. If they win, it won't be by much.

Re: USA Today - Match-up

Yeah. I didn't get where they were finding 7.

McNabb has no 'Go-To' WR, our secondary will be without AA effing up the program. Looks like Westbrook may be out or at best gimpy.

Redskins win (if Matty allows The Sheriff a temp Avatar).

McNabb makes shitty receivers look good.

Re: USA Today - Match-up

Apparently all Eagles fans are thinking that Stollworth is going to eat us up. If he takes one hit from our secondary, I can safely say it will probably kill him AND his next of kin.

Re: USA Today - Match-up

Expect to see lots of flags, watch Sellers. Apparently the Eagles are upset about him from last year's game. Jason Short claims that Mike S. spit on him in the game and they were both flagged for personal fouls in the game.

Re: USA Today - Match-up

Hm, I dont know guys, it seems US Today is about right. The Eagles are coming off a bye, and a bunch of losses, they should be fired up like we were agaisnt the Boys.

They are at home, and they have a good D(well I guess anything is good compared to ours). I think for the media to say they will win by 7 is reasonable.
