The Eagles injury situation could be a problem on Sunday night. William Thomas is doubtful so Winston Justice must step up handle Giants DE Osi Umenyiora. This could be a problem because Justice is inexperienced.
Plus the combination of a speedy defensive end and a loud crowd could cause problems for any offensive tackle in the league. thing is developing into a major problem. I’m concerned and you should be as well. If Justice can't handle him, the Eagles will have to help out with a tight end or a back.
Eagles cornerback William James cut his finger in practice and may not be able to go. As far as I'm concerned, he's got to go. He must play even if he's only playing with one hand. I say tape it up good and get out there. The Eagles already are short-handed with Lito Sheppard out. This is another reason to be concerned because the Birds have trouble stopping Plaxico Burress when they're at full strength.
The Eagles must find a way to help their receivers release because they’re probably going to face a lot of press technique and man to man coverage. Steve Spagnuolo isn’t going to be a dumb as Lions coach Rob Marinelli failed to repeat the defensive strategy which kept the Eagles in check for the first two games of the season. You’ll probably see the Eagles utilize a lot of motion to free up the wideouts versus the man to man press technique. This used to be called bump and run technique, and was employed by many great corners like Mell Blount of the Steelers, Michael Haynes of the Patriots and Raiders, as well as Lester Hayes of the Raiders.
That coverage would work well with a good pass rush which the Giants have. It would make McNabb hold the ball. It would be especially effective if Brian Westbrook doesn’t play. Man to man for the corners means man to man for the linebackers as well and there’s not a linebacker in the league who can over BWest one-on-one. The Eagles aren’t the same team without Westbrook but they’d better run the football whether or not he plays. I think he’s going to play but that doesn’t mean he’s going to be effective.
