This team showed me a ton today. They showed me that they still care. To dominate on both sides of the ball like they did against a team that is 5-1 at home is a signature win. Just like the Packers game was.
1. Wentz had a terrific game today. Playing in the conditions he did today, zero turnovers by him. He made plays when he had to. My only concern was I think two of the sacks he took he could have gotten rid of the ball but once again it seemed like there were no receivers open. Got hit in the head and taken down by his neck on the one sack. Should have been a flag, especially after seeing the flag they threw on Graham. Not sure why Wentz doesn't get that same respect from the officials in the NFL.
2. Offensive line was dominant. I mean dominant in the run game. They took a really talented defensive line and made them their bitch in the run game.
3. I thought Dillard had an excellent game, he did give up a sack but I think that is something that with a little bit of strength in the off season will make him a dominant left tackle. Excellent draft pick by Howie.
4. Today was officially Miles Sanders coming out party. Not that I thought he was terrible this year, I think he was playing pretty well, missed some holes and of course the fumble. But overall the kid is really starting to shine. We have something with him. Doesn't sound like his shoulder injury is of too much concern.
5. Great game by Jordan Howard, not just running the ball but he made a nice block on the run by Sanders for the TD. I want to see more of this two back look going forward.
6. Derrick Barnett was really good today as were Fletcher Cox . I think the rookie tackles held up ok but they got pushed around a little in the pass game opening up lanes for Allen to run.
7. Schwartz still pisses me off. You stop a running QB on delayed blitz up the middle and spying him. Schwartz really didn't do any of that. Have to say though this is the best the defense played all year (except for the Jets game but that was the Jets).
8. Having both Darby and Mills back we are showing we have at least two just below league average corners which is a major upgrade. Sidney Jones though?? We should get Strap back next week and he should be the nickel, Maddox is also close.
The time is now Howies. I think the team showed him its a playoff team today. You can't ignore the two wins in Buffalo and Green bay. I wouldn't be surprised to see him make multiple moves. Both shipping out and obtaining players.
