A win is a win no matter how you slice it. The Eagles came out rusty on offense but firing pretty good on defense. Overall they took care of business.
Offense
1. McNabb - so-so game. Was really off early. Everything he threw was high. That usually means with him is he was too strong. Didn't settle down until he started to run the ball. Made some nice throws throughout the game. The best throw in my mind was a play that didn't even count, that throw to Klecko was money and right on target he led Klecko perfectly.
2. Westbrook - Best player on the team and he showed it yesterday. We need to find a way of wrapping him in plastic wrap so we can keep him on the field for 19 games a year (16 plus winning the superbowl)
3. Offensive Line - good game. Run blocking was solid, pass blocking was OK. McNabb had more pressure than I would have liked especially early. They need to get lower on the goal line plays. Getting stuffed on that QB sneak down the goal line was on the online, They had zero surge.
4. Desean Jackson - nice game in the pass game. Caught the ball well. On pace to catch 70+ balls as a rookie.
5. Curtis - looks slow. But had a couple of nice catches
6. Klecko - is looking more and more comfortable as the fullback. Flashed speed I didn't know he had when he caught the pass that was called back.
Defense
D line - did a nice job against the run all game. Set up the linebackers to clean up things. Bunkley in particular did a real good job occupying the double team, he split it it a couple of times to setup stuffs in the backfield.
Bradley - was all over the field. Really had a good game
Samuel - this guy keeps showing why we gave him the money. He did give up a TD to Roddy WHite but things happen, it was a good route and a great throw to the goal post. But the way Samuel breaks on the ball its alsome. Nice INT.
Lito - real nice INT had a good game, got beat deep just before the INT and was called for interference (which it was)
Overall Akers didn't miss any field goals, Rocca punted OK, the special teams played well. The defense got back to stopping the run and thus gave up on ly 14 points. The offense put up almost 400 yards. Once they shook off the rust they started to roll. Westbrook is amazing.
Matt Ryan really impressed me in this game. The guy made some impossible throws. The first TD to White was threaded right through three defenders. I think there might be less than 5 passers in this league who can make that throw.
OH and I have to say this GO PHILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
