Weather is a huge factor which means running game. Atlanta - 3 backs (Duckett, Vick, Dunn) that can go yard on any given play…and at least one of them touches the ball every single offensive play. Defensive Coordinator Nightmare.

Eagles played sloppy last week and was gifted the win by the Vikings. Westbrook is good, but not that good. McNabb has been awesome - but unless he can throw it to himself 15 to 25 yards downfield - he gets to wait one more year.

X Factor: Special Teams. Both defenses are good - not great. Both offenses have capability to score points in a hurry or stall in a hurry. Atlanta has a huge edge in Special Teams. If you don’t know who Allen Rossum is - you will by tomorrow night.

The Birds! I only wished they were wearing their red unis. The second best looking uni’s in the NFL. (That’s another blog.)
