Eagles make a stand this Weekend


Philly -3.5 vs Pittsburgh


Honestly, the Eagles in my opinion played as good of game, if not better than Dallas on Monday Night, and I am convinced QB McNabb will have a stellar year this season, and is back in Pro Bowl form. Just imagine if this guy had some quality receivers! That is a scary thought, but backing him up is all world RB Brian Westbrook who is a 1 man wrecking crew.


Not sure of Rothlesburger's health coming in here for the men of steel off a struggling effort against the Browns last week with 10 points on offense in that lackluster win, witrh little verticle passing game, is a concern against the Eagles.


Philly will score points and prove to be the toughest test of the season for the Steeler defense, who have faced the Rams and Browns to date, neither of which has an offense to date, so those stats you are looking at are skewed big time for Pitt on defense in this match up. The Eagles average 37 ppg, and I epxect an output close to that at home for Philly.


All in all, the West Coast offense is clicking and WR Reggie Brown returns for the Eagles, in a foul mood here after a tough Monday Night loss. At days end, I doubt the Steelers can trade puches on offense here for four quarters and the Eagles pull away late.
