Not as easy as it looked when the schedule first came out, and after last week's debacle, why would it be?
Big test for the new (and improved?) run defense, as the Skins will pound the ball between the tackles with a very good O-line (sans Jensen) and two strong runners. Big games are likely needed from the LB core as well as the safeties. Cooley is a tough cover for any LB, so that will be interesting as well.
I see the Eagles running a lot as well, and trying to get Reggie Brown involved early on.
Very tough to get a read on this team in all three phases and aspects of the game. D looked solid last week but against a decrepit QB and some rookie backs. O looked terrible last week but was it mainly due to McNabb rust? Special teams can't possibly get any worse, can it?
A close game but Eagles pull away late:
Eagles: 20
Redskins: 9

This will not be close. At all. The Redskins stink and Jason Campbell will look like a deer in the headlights. At least 1 defensive TD by the Eagles.
Eagles 31
Deadskins 10

The Eagles' offense explodes for a ton of points and the Redskins score 5 TDs on muffed punt returns.

Birds on Monday Night.
Division rival.
Coming off a game they should've won.
Inexperienced QB.
Redskins will run the ball and they'll be testing "Man On Fire" James, but the Birds should be able to comfortably win this one.

Mr I'll Take Sheldon Browns Job get his shot under the big lights and I say he's toast. I am not impressed by the vaunted new run defense until they stop some real running backs. Their only saving grace is that Jason Campbell is the kind of QB that JJ's defense get into making a critical turnover when they need. I see a nail biter ending on a Akers field goal to win it.

The Eagles look great (because they're playing the Skins) BUT Reid again starts playing it safe with a comfortable halftime lead and it gets a little closer than it should.

The Birds, caught in a classic "look ahead" game as they dread wearing the "Swedish National Team" uniforms next week, squeek by.
