We tighten that up, stick with a similar gameplan and we're golden.

I don't think we'll have to force McNabb to pass because that's what the Eagles do 80% of the time anyway. Andy Reid has never relied that much on a running game. It's in the passing game with our 30th ranked defense going against a team that consistently makes big plays in the passing game, on the road, in the division, that is the greatest concern. Remember, division games on the road are always extremely difficuly. It's a must win game for both teams, and the Eagles have an extra week to prepare. It's a winable game, but it's going to come down to who want's it the most, and plays accordingly.
