Eagles vs Broncos - All of the things I’m looking for and Keys to winning
Nov 05, 2017 12:41PM
Today will mark the best defensive team that the Eagles will face all season. This Denver Broncos team has shown at least defensively that they are one of the best in the league and throughout the season they've done a great job keeping their offense in games!
Unfortunately, the Broncos offense has mastered the art of the turnover and they continue to fumble and throw the ball to the other team which hasn't allowed them to win very many games.
With the change of quarterbacks the Broncos will attempt to decrease the amount of turnovers and play more towards the defense and allow the offense to stay in the game.
Defensively for the Eagles they have to continue to do what they've done, pressure the quarterback and not allow him to get comfortable in the pocket, if they're able to do that they can easily force the Broncos into turnovers which they have been willing to give up. Offensively for the Birds we have to find a way to get back on track and that starts with number 11, Carson has to find a way to get comfortable in the pocket and not allow Von Miller and other defensive players for the Broncos to pressure him into bad throws.
Last week Carson did not look like his normal self and for us to get to the point where we want to be with this team we need to find a way with the absence of Jason Peters to make Carson comfortable in the pocket. It will be a tough task but I want to get our run game back going and allow the new addition Jay Ajayi get some positive runs behind our o line. I’d also like to see a lot more of Mack Hollins and see if the connection between Wentz and Jeffrey can continue to emerge. This game will also show how much Doug Pederson as a coach has evolved and if in critical situations he's ready to step up to the plate
