WJ3 can contain Julio. Our front line can get pressure. If anything wins in this league, it's the ability to sack the QB, and defend the pass. If you take Julio away from Ryan, he is facing a much harder game.
I personally think WJ3 is our MVP. If you take him out of our lineup, it makes the biggest impact. He can swing us 3 games IMO, just from his ability to prevent the opposing team's best WR from scoring TDs.
Neal's injuries were scary, hope he is ok.
Great post Thillan, great point about WJ3 and our pass rush. These two things alone will give us a shot against
anyone including the Falcons who looked pretty damn terrible in the biggest part in winning games, scoring TD's.
Neal's injuries did look scary. Surprised he came back before the 2nd one. He is a big part in them stopping the
run cause they have smaller, faster Linebackers that can get mauled.
The thing i think our Team needs to get much better at is the run game. We need to be able to stop the run and
run the ball and we might have a shot at the whole thing. The Eagles are great in the run game on both sides.
