Title: Eagles Weekly FF-Specific Team Analyses
Post by Philly on Sep 10^th, 2004, 11:30am

The Eagles game analyses will be posted in the Team Reports this year:

Feel free to discuss the projections in this thread.

I apologize for the format in the team reports. I guess hitting "enter" isn't good enough in html programming and I needed to add some line breaks.

It's still readable, though, and the information is just as good!

It will look better next week. I promise. [smiley=fingerscrossed.gif]

I disagree with your ratio. [smiley=crystalball.gif] I think the Eagles will run more than 20 times. They should have the lead and run it down the Giants throat.

The Giants will probably pay close attention to TO and the running game will benefit in the first half. Also, I think that the Eagles' back-up RBs will get a decent amount of carries and will do well.

The Giants should score more than 7... I say Eagles 27-17 just enought to cover! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Reid is just looking for an excuse to throw it every play. I think the total will be right around 20 or so (not including Donovan).

The Giants can pay as much attention to TO as they want, but they're banged up and TO is just too good.

I gave the Giants 10... so I agree with the fact that they'll score more than 7.

Nice call Jeff. Pretty close on many of the things you covered. The game went pretty much as I expected.

Had to laugh at your "Directions" fantasy article though. I wish I was playing you this week to if I had Tiki Barber on my team.

Post by Philly on Sep 13^th, 2004, 9:35am

The game went pretty much as expected. The Eagles offense had their way with the Giant-D. Westbrook, Owens, Smith, and McNabb all had outstanding days. Unfortunately, the Eagles lost rookie 1st round pick Shawn Andrews for the season with a bad break of his leg.

The defense was spotty. There were some holes in the secondary that were exploited early, but closed down quickly. The run defense also allowed more yards than they would have liked, however a big chunk of them came during a Tiki Barber 72-yard TD run during garbage time.

And, yes, Jim, my opponent in my money league started Tiki and it looks like that one run might be enough to send me to a shocking loss if Steve Smith and the Carolina D don't come up big tonight.

While I think the Eagles can win this game, as I predict in the analysis. It would not surprise me at all to see the Vikes come out on top. It might even be better for the Eagles that way. We don't want the Eagles to start smelling themselves after a romp over a bad team and a win over a solid competitor under the lights.

solid analysis Philly! [smiley=bow.gif] I think there will be more scoring than you do. I don't think the Vikes want it that way, but I don't see their D stopping the Eagles enough to keep this game score down. The over is 48, and I'm taking it.

GO VIKES!

That was an amazing game. The Eagles let the Vikes march up and down the field, but wouldn't let them in the endzone. On the other side, the Vikes couldn't stop the Eagles, but the Eagles almost never had the ball.

Look at the length of those drives for the Vikes! Two drives of more than 8 minutes that resulted in 3 points.

The Eagles certainly got a break with the TO non-TD, but they also recovered an Onterrio Smith fumble early on that was given back to the Vikes. The officiating was terrible throughout, but fortunately the Eagles fans gave it back to the refs when Referee Bill Carollo tried to explain a penalty and 70,000 Eagles fans laughed at him when he got tongue-tied (classic moment that will certainly be thrown into the Eagles fan lore along with booing Santa and throwing snowballs at Jimmy Johnson).

The Moss v. TO matchup that the media hyped was never really a factor. Moss looked unstoppable on the first drive, but the Eagles made an adjustment and held him in check the rest of the way. What we did see were two, big, strong-armed, mobile QBs putting on a show. Neither could be brought down without a fight and both avoided a number of sacks.

What was really telling to me, as an Eagles fan, was the play of the defense. They were outmatched in the secondary, yet they made all the plays they had to. The Eagles tackled brilliantly (except on Culpep, but that's understandable), they shut Onterrio Smith down, and Def. Coord. Jim Johnson using Kearse in the Joker position was outstanding. (Sheldon Brown had a great game - hope everyone followed my IDP advice and played him).

Mike Tice was horrendous. He didn't challenge when he should have and threw the red flag just to hear himself yell some more. He looked out of control and the result indicated that. And why didn't Sean Linehan listen when Moss told him to get him the ball when he was iso-ed on a safety or CB? They did it ONCE the whole game, near the end, and it resulted in a TD over Lito Sheppard.

I saw 4 plays where they were trying to go deep. Vikes O-line was unable to handle the blitzes, and OSmith showed why he's not the starter by not being very good in blitz recognition/pickup. Each time CPepp took a 7 step drop, he was stepping up a couple steps within 1 to 2 secs, and then had pressure from the middle so he couldn't step into the bomb.

Vikes fumble a TD, get a TD called back (settled for FG) and failed to challenge TOs TD. That's an 18 pt swing right there! Of course, that's assuming the Vikes would've stopped them on the TO nonTD drive, which is assuming a lot!

If there's any heartening fact, it's that the Vikings walk away from this feeling they could've won it, and played terribly.

See ya in the playoffs! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

The way I see it.....With the NFC only having 3 really solid teams....The Eagles just beat one of them......Seattle being the third.....This Eagle team could break the Fins record and win out. I feel like right now they are as good as any team. If they can stay healthy!
The Vikes have little chance of playing them in the playoffs anywhere but Philly.

The Eagles are a good team, no denying that. But there defense can be run on, their secondary can be passed on, their special teams are slightly above average & they are 1 injury at QB away from a 9-7 season (though most teams are). There is absolutely NO WAY you can make this type of prediction. They still have to play all 3 road conference games, BAL & GB coming to town, and they have a road game in STL (though that may not be as daunting as it once was).

If you're handing out odds on this bet, I'm in! 8-)

Except by teams with solid offensive lines and explosive RBs... like Minnesota for example. ;) They will give up some big games to RBs. There's no denying that, but the Eagles offense can outscore anyone they are playing.

Quote:

True enough, but they don't give up many points. Yards don't count at the end of the day -- points do.

Quote:

Now who's smoking crack? The Eagles consistently have some of the best special teams in the NFL. They have the best special teams coach in the league in John Harbaugh. They have one of the most reliable kickers in Akers and a solid punter in Dirk Johnson.

Quote:

& they are 1 injury at QB away from a 9-7 season (though most teams are).

Again, not true. Jeff Blake is a very capable backup. The Eagles managed to go 5-1 with Koy Detmer and AJ Feeley when McNabb went down before. I'm not saying they'll be great, but they will still be good enough to win with the schedule they have. Blake has never had as good a team as the Eagles in front of him - he's very capable in the right situation. I watched him execute the offense very efficiently in pre-season. I know we can't put too much credence in pre-season numbers, but he still had to make the throws accurately to complete them, and he did.

I agree with you here. I doubt seriously that they will go undefeated this year. But name a team on their schedule they won't be favored against. If at the end of the year there is an undefeated team, I'd be willing to be it is either the Eagles or Patriots. I know it won't be the Vikes.

Just having a little fun with ya. I actually like the Vikes (except when they play the Eagles). I think the Vikes have a real nice team and, if their defense steps it up a bit, could have a dangerous team this year.

I only made the comment about the Vikes not going undefeated because, well, they can't now since they already lost a game.

And the Eagles have been to a Super Bowl (SB 15 vs. Oakland). Of course they fared just as well as the Vikes did in their appearances.

Solid and thorough as usual Philly. I agree, this looks like a trap game for the Eagles, in fact, there are quite a few "pundits" who are picking Detriot. I'd like to see how many of them keep that pick if you make them put a few hundy behind it! ;)

Philadelphia should win this one, and the score you chose sounds about right on.

Not quite the way I pictured it, but I was close on the score. Didn't think the Eagles offense would be grounded and the defense would dominate, but I'll take a decisive Eagles win any way I can get it.

Look for a much closer game next week. The Eagles may find it hard to get up for the Browns, a team they have no rivalry with (except for TO and Garcia, but despite all the play that topic is getting already, it isn't much to go on). They have tough games against Baltimore and Pittsburgh before three straight division games, so week 7 could be a trap week.

Despite the Browns having the lead in the fourth quarter, I never once felt that the Eagles would lose this game. That's the beauty of having a team this good.

The loss of Westbrook comes at a bad time as the Eagles have games against Baltimore and Pittsburgh, and then three in a row against the NFC East.

I nailed the 4-TD day for McNabb and the Owens totals were pretty close. I also got the short TD pass to Chad Lewis early in the game. But the defense got torched and Westbrook did very little.

The next few could be interesting.

PS - Tara Reid still looks good up there.

If a time traveler came back and told us that the Steelers win because of the way Duce Staley played ,it would have brought a different thought of how this one went down. Duce Staley beating the Eagles. NO WAY! I for one am chomping at the bit for the Philly analysis. Im waiting for the answer to the biggest question..???????

I'll tell ya, I think the Steelers can (and probably will) win this one. It should be a good one and could go either way.

But an Eagles loss doesn't mean that the Steelers are the best team in the NFL. Remember that this is a somewhat meaningless out-of-conference game for the Eagles. I don't think they're looking at it that way, but it's reality.

I'm really looking forward to this game. Fox anaylist Brian Baldinger (on Philly SportsRadio - 610 WIP) this morning said that he thinks this is the best game of the season, hands down.

Post by steelkings on Nov 5^th, 2004, 9:18am

I kept waiting last week for the Patriots to try and run the ball off tackle and run some clock. Apparently Corry Dillons 's injury scared them from that game plan. I look for the Philly fat man to try and exploit Casey Hamptons absents and run Levens up the gut. Levens doesnt have to do more than keep himself upright past the line of scrimmage. If he can do that. The Steeler linebackers wont be able to sit in the middle zone when the corners blitz. Its the key to beating the Steelers. If the Linebackers or safty cheats up to stop the run, they will get burnt by a good receiver or tight end. Does philly have any good recievers? ;) If the Steeler nose tackle by committee has a good day, Mcnabb is gonna get roughed up. The Eagles must be able to run the ball to have success. The Steeler linebackers are to quick for runningbacks to get outside. This is a bad weekend for Westbrook to be nursing it.

Heres how I see it:
T.O still gets 2 TD's
Akers gets 3 FG's and 1 XP's (Eagles go for 2 after late score)

Staley gets 2 TD's
Ward gets 1 TD
Reid gets 2 FG's and 3 XP's

Pittsburgh 27
Philadephia 22

Here's the Eagles-Steelers Fantasy Analysis...

http://ffpro.com/teamreports/eagles/eagles-footballinfoframes.htm

All week I've been of the belief that the Steelers would win this game (and I've been OK with that). I figured that Duce Staley would be the key to the game. Now that he is questionable, or at least somewhat hampered, I think it swings the victory back to the Eagles side. Should be a great game whoever wins!

Wow... I didn't expect this. I thought an Eagles loss was likely (although less so when Staley was a no-go), but the way they loss was disheartening. Fortunately the Eagles only face two more teams (Giants & Packers) that can really hurt them with a rushing attack, so that bodes well for the Eagles. The Eagles also need to get Jon Runyan and Jermaine Mayberry healthy on the o-line. Mayberry sat out and his replacement got eaten alive. Runyan played, but was ineffective the whole game.

Maybe this will serve as a nice wake-up call to the Eagles players and coaches. They were embarrassed by a good team (sort of like a mid-season playoff game) and will need to make a lot of corrections.

OFFENSIVE HERO: Bettis had more rushing yards than the Eagles had total yards. The 100-yard game was the 55th of his career, his 44th as a Steeler, his first this year and his second against the Eagles.

OFFENSIVE ZERO: Everybody on the Eagles' offense except Jeff Blake, Ian Allen and Alonzo Ephraim, who didn't play.

DEFENSIVE HERO: Steelers linebacker James Farrior had an interception and 41-yard return, a sack, five tackles and knocked down a pass.

DEFENSIVE ZERO: Everybody on the Eagles' defense.

I tell ya what, load up on Eagles next week for your FF team. They are a great team that had a down week - and will take it out on Dallas.

I don't bet on Eagles games and don't even know what the early line is, but I think taking the Eagles against the spread this week is a very smart bet.

McNabb and owens are awesome! I just watched their little switcheroo-reenactment with McNabb chassing owens... and I am dying of laughter.

IMO... that is class!

The Week Twelve Fantasy Analysis has been posted. There is a small typo in the final score. It says Eagles win 31-10, but it should be 31-13. I took a FG away from Steve Christie and I apologize for that.

Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy the football!

Lost track of this thread during the 2005 season, but I found it again.

Here's an off-season report looking at the upcoming free agency period:

Got some good stuff going on the Eagles Team Reports page.

I started my pre-Training Camp "Battles to Watch" posts. The Eagles open camp 7/20 (because of an early pre-season game) and there are some positions that can be won/lost during camp this summer.

For you IDPers out there, some interesting battles shaping up on the defensive side of the ball at Eagles camp (which is only 4 days away now)!

Speaking of camp... here's someone I wouldn't mind sharing my tent with...

After analyzing the strongside linebacker battle in yesterday's (Part 4) analysis, I look at the defensive line today in Part 5. There are some big changes afoot on the D-line, changes that could really alter your thinking about the Eagles defense as a viable fantasy selection as a team defense or as IDPs.
