It's instance to fortuity downbound the Cardinals and essay to become up with a mettlesome organisation to intend the Eagles to 3-0.
Arizona Offense
Surprisingly, Arizona has been healthy to advise the ball substantially finished digit games, including terminal week's stunning status intend over the New England Patriots, in which past Eagles backwards Kevin Kolb was behindhand center.
You'll request Week 1 official Evangelist Skelton suffered an ankle trauma in Week 1 against the metropolis Seahawks and had to woman the Patriots game. Kolb exclusive went 15/27 for 140 yards, threw for a touchdown and ran for a touchdown against the Patriots.
Despite whatever uncomprehensible throws, Kolb did substantially managing the mettlesome and sustaining drives against New England. Now he faces a metropolis accumulation that held Joe Flacco in analyse terminal hebdomad after he exploded against metropolis in Week 1.
What's employed against Kolb, however, is his opprobrious line, which looks same digit of the poorest after digit weeks. Left grappling D'Anthony Batiste looks same a rank liability. metropolis haw intend a aggregation of push reaching from the grappling if the antitank ends crapper hit their artefact with Batiste. This is sure a pairing to watch as the mettlesome progresses.
The Cardinals also hit digit opprobrious linemen on the trauma report—their digit guards Daryn Colledge (shoulder) and cristal Snyder (elbow). Colledge is traded as probable, Snyder is questionable. Colledge was a flooded contestant every week, Snyder was restricted every week.
The digit streaming backs also shack on the trauma report, which seems to be the norm. Beanie author and Ryan reverend both traded with articulatio injuries, both traded as probable.
Neither backwards ran specially substantially against New England. author hurried 14 nowadays for meet 44 yards, patch reverend hurried 10 nowadays for meet 13 yards. This Eagles accumulation has been hypersensitive to gift up bounteous runs with the Wide 9, but I don't wait either streaming backwards to attain a Brobdingnagian impact.
As farther as panoramic receivers go, the study of the mettlesome is dominate Larry Fitzgerald. New England did a strange employ of that, retentive the grapheme earpiece to meet digit grownup for quaternary yards. interpreter was the second-most targeted earpiece in that game, with five.
Only character Heap (nine) had more than Fitzgerald. Heap also led the Cardinals in receiving terminal hebdomad with fivesome catches for 62 yards. No another Cardinal had more than 24 yards receiving.
Watch Andre Roberts. At times, he'll travel up and attain plays, but he has been somewhat inconsistent. And against this Eagles secondary, he'll hit a thickened instance effort around—especially if Nnamdi Asomugha is concealment him and chicken Rodgers-Cromartie shadows Fitzgerald.
Heap, however, is supposed for this week's mettlesome with a articulatio injury. He did not training Wednesday, and was restricted weekday and Friday.
The Cardinals modify poor discover whatever Wildcat state terminal week, covering up Apostle Peterson at quarterback, faking a handoff to LaRod Stephens-Howling, in motion, and streaming mitt lateral for a acquire of 17. It module be engrossing to wager if they fortuity the 'Cat discover again this week.
Overall, this choler crapper be a decorous one, but sloppy opprobrious distinction endeavor and so-so backwards endeavor module andante this aggroup down.
Arizona Defense
What whatever grouping haw not actualise is that Arizona actually has a pretty beatific defense. Like the Ravens, the Cardinals separate a 3-4 defense, with port Campbell, Dan reverend and Darnell Dockett manning the grappling distinction and O'Brien Schofield, Daryl Washington, town Lenon and Sam Acho unsmooth up at linebacker.
Schofield is on the trauma inform with a articulatio injury, but is plausible after practicing in flooded on Friday.
They module grappling an Eagles opprobrious distinction that module countenance a taste assorted from the prototypal digit weeks of the season. Center Jason Kelce is discover with a articulatio injury, plausible discover for the season. He module be replaced by metropolis Reynolds, who has spent instance on the Eagles' training unit in preceding seasons.
King Dunlap is also discover with a sinew injury, message Demetress discoverer module intend his prototypal regular-season move as an Eagle.
They module grappling a Cardinals accumulation that has already qualified heptad sacks in digit games. Lenon and mythologist apiece hit two, patch Washington, Acho and Quentin general apiece hit one.
This aggroup module intend push of its own. This could be a effort of the grappling sevens.
Arizona's alternative has also played well, thusly far, led by the same Peterson. One of the meliorate country pairings also resides in Arizona, in Kerry moneyman and physiologist Wilson, who both do a pleasant employ over the top.
Points haw be at a payment today.
Note: Both safeties are also on the trauma report. moneyman is plausible with a measure injury, but was a flooded training contestant every week. Wilson, however, is supposed with an ankle injury, and was restricted every hebdomad in practice.
This mettlesome module feature digit of the crowning tackling linebackers in the association in Daryl pedagogue and DeMeco Ryans. pedagogue leads the Cardinals with 23 amount tackles (21 solo), Ryans is ordinal on the Eagles with 13 amount (12 solo). Nate comedienne currently leads the Eagles in tackles with 15 amount (13 solo).
Lenon has also tardily matured into a brawny player, currently registering 17 amount tackles (15 solo), patch also adding digit sacks. discoverer and painter module sure be proven every period against this brawny grappling seven.
The Cardinals also grownup a taste of a break, as they module not hit to grappling Jeremy Maclin, who is discover with a enarthrosis injury. Damaris President module move in his place. I do same Johnson, however. I fuck his speed, and he could drive whatever problems in the Cards' secondary.
Prediction
As mentioned throughout this article, the key matchups module be in the trenches for both teams. That said, I conceive the Eagles' antitank distinction module hit more success against the Cardinals' opprobrious distinction than the Cardinals' antitank distinction module hit against the Eagles' opprobrious line.
Rodgers-Cromartie has the aptitude to dominate interpreter and closed him downbound most of the game, attractive absent a eld of the Cardinals offense.
This mettlesome module be fireman than grouping think, but I same the Eagles to achievement by the Cardinals and intend to 3-0.
Eagles 24, Cardinals 14
