For the third game in a row the Eagles utilized a balanced offense. They’re running the ball effectively and it’s helping them tremendously.
This was solid effort by the football team but they’re capable of playing much better football. Chris Redman and the Falcons were horrible but you can only beat the teams you play, so the Eagles shouldn’t be penalized for the bad play of Atlanta.
It seems that every week we’re getting the chance to see how good of a football player, Eagles fullback Leonard Weaver is. He had one of his best days as a pro and he’s going to help open up things for other players on the football team.
He totaled exactly 100 yards of offense. He had 63 yards receiving and 37 rushing. His abilikty to hit the hole quick with those traps up middle will slow the down the rush and help the offensive line in their pass blocking.
Jeremy Maclin had some good and bad today. He dropped a pass, but made up for it with some big plays. You can see that he’s getting more comfortable and will be a real problem for other teams, when he’s able to play with all of his speed.
Maclin will probably be able to play at a faster speed as the season continues. You can see he’s got the goods. I liked the punt return he had. He was a step away from taking it the distance.
I think LeSean McCoy is getting better and better each game he plays. I saw him pick up a couple of blitzes during the game. He’s catching the ball more consistently but he didn’t get a chance to do much in there on the ground.
