Pats/Eagles
Bummed I'm going to be traveling all week, and will miss this game.
If Philly's OL & DL play like they did Sunday night...
If the NE offense clicks for 60 minutes...
Tough game to call. Unknown if Vick or VY will be playing, or if Maclin will be in. Eagles are better than their record suggests, but have come up small in big situations all year. Sunday was the abnormality.
But the Pats haven't really faced an offense with these kind of weapons yet. Both defenses will be hard pressed- the Eagles mediocre LBs will get roasted by Gronk, Hernandez and Welker mismatches, and the Pats secondary will get dominated by Maclin (if he goes) and Djax. McCoy is also a serious X factor- Pats haven't faced anyone like him yet with the exception of Fred Jackson, who had a field day.
As cliche as it sounds, it's going to be the battles up front that determine this. If the NE OL can keep Brady clean, it's going to be a blowout. If he gets rattled and knocked around, the birds have a good chance.
Hoping for a good game, no injuries, good luck.
