Mort said this morning that in the last two meetings between these coaches, McVay's team has ran up over 800 yards. I was curious so I did some checking. In the first game between Philly and Washington last year, the Skins rang up 493 yards, rushing for 230 yards and passing for 263. In the second game, Washington had 95 yards rushing and 288 passing. Washington won both games scoring 27 points in each. I'd argue that the Rams have a bit more talent on offense than the Skins last year (although it's close). My point is that McVay knows how to attack Schwartz's defense. As long as our own defense can hold the Eagles to under 20 points, I think we'll win this game. Here is a link to the complete stats to those games.

Good points, I don’t think there can be much doubt over which coaching staff feels they are familiar with and can exploit the other side more effectively

In fact I’m counting on that

Nice post, hope that all works out in our favor.

I have a feeling there will be a few more jet sweeps for Tavon/Pharoh if they key on Gurley too much. I'm also looking for a newly installed play or 2.

That would be nice, IMO, Schwatz one of the best DC's in the NFL, of course the best DC in the NFL will be on the other sideline.

The Eagles are coming into this game with the wrong mentality, they will wait til the last 15 seconds to show their defense (stupid fucking media), and then they will play 8 in the box. Goff will absolutely shred this defense, and if my gut is right, I think he'll finish this game with 6tds. I was more nervous against the Cardinals then I am against the Eagles, simply because I know Wentz is the product of the run game (2nd best running game in the NFL), and is a dink n dunk kind of Qb at heart who will throw that int to cost his team the game.

my biggest worry, and reason for some doubt today, is if Ogletree cant go our already weak run D becomes worse and they just pound the rock and control the clock and keep our O off the field. if its a shootout I think we win easy

I'm hoping Everett is 100% for this game. I think he can cause serious mismatch problems and get lots of YAC.

Yeah I think the Eagles' focus on Gurley plus the fact they've been pedestrian vs TEs works in Everett's favor. He's been comin on of late, and I suspect this might be his coming out party.

Schwartz is a great defensive coordinator, he is going to bring consistent heat and plays similar to greg Williams.

I hope we have success on play action and can break a few big plays , this defense is very aggressve and will bite
