[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 845179, member: 12283"] Some statistics on the Eagles thus far: [B]Yards/Play: [/B]5.2, 24th (Packers- 4.8, 28th) [B]Yds/Pass: [/B]6.7, 27th (Packers- 7.0, 26th) [B]Pass Attempts: [/B]123, 6th (Packers- 93, 28th) [B]Yds/Carry: [/B]3.6, 25th (Packers- 3.2, 27th) [B]Rush Attempts: [/B]82, 13th (Packers- 78, 15th) [B]Pts/Game: [/B]25.3, 9th (Packers- 19.3, 23rd) [B]Giveaways: [/B]5, 7thT (Packers-2, 28th) [B]Yds Allowed/Play: [/B]5.9, 19th (Packers- 5.0, 7th) [B]Yds Allowed/Pass: [/B]7.6, 18th (Packers- 6.3, 6th) [B]Yds Allow/Rush: [/B]2.9, 2nd (Packers- 4.9 27th) [B]Sacks: [/B]2, 31st (Packers- 12, 3rdT) [B]Pts/Game: [/B]26, 24th (Packers- 11.7, 2nd) [B]Takeaways: [/B]3, 17th (Packers- 8, 1st) [B]Previous Games (Eagles):[/B] [LIST] [*]Vs.

Denver; 27-16 Win; Denver (0-3) 17th in scoring defense and 30th in scoring offense [/LIST] So what to make of all of this? [LIST] [*]There are a number of similarities-- especially offensive inefficiency and having had two games at home. [*]The Packers' defense overall, especially in regards to pass defense, sacks, and takeaways, has been significantly better. [*]The Eagles' run defense has been the strength of their defense and the Packers' its weakness. [*]The Packers have faced the superior defenses by a wide margin. [*]The Eagles have generally faced better scoring offenses, but the most effective unit of the bunch (MIN) has been a Packer opponent. [*][B]Conclusion: [/B]This Philly defense should offer an opportunity for the Packers to take another step forward on offense.
