Eagles vs. Cardinals: Five Things to Watch
- The Eagles are getting healthy. Defensive back Avonte Maddox and offensive lineman Landon Dickerson are expected to be back in the lineup on Sunday.
- Will Jonathan Gannon’s familiarity with the Eagles’ offense be problematic for the inconsistent Birds’ attack?
- The Arizona defense ranks towards the bottom of the NFL in yards allowed and second to last in points allowed —almost 27 points-per-game.
- Arizona is allowing a league worst 147-yards per game on the ground. Will head coach Nick Sirianni and offensive coordinator Brian Johnson use this as a “make right” game for the rushing attack?
- Matt Patricia’s version of the Eagles’ defense has been relying on the young kids such as Kelee Ringo and Nolan Smith. Keep an eye on the young players as they rotate in and out on Sunday.
Eagles vs. Cardinals Prediction
The Cardinals are not a good football team. Period, end of discussion. Anything short of a nearly flawless game will be a bit of a disappointment. Arizona’s familiarity with the Eagles’ offense will be an interesting storyline to watch, however, in the end, it comes down to the Jimmy’s and the Joe’s. The Eagles have the better players and that will come through in the final score.
