Eagles Vs. Dolphins: Clashing Strategies & Narratives

00:00 From a confidence perspective, this isn't going to phase the
00:05 Philadelphia Eagles or Jalen Hurts in this matchup, Donnie.
00:09 I think the biggest thing for me right now is, does Philadelphia
00:12 take the type of approach of more like bully ball? They're
00:15 playing at home, they think to the more physical team, do they
00:18 look to run it with Hurts and DeAndre Swift? And then that
00:22 defensive front seven, do they look to get pressure and shut
00:25 down what we think is a finesse type of offense in Miami? And
00:29 that's where the Miami Dolphins could potentially change that
00:33 narrative if they win this ballgame, but they do it on the
00:35 ground a little bit later tonight.
00:37 Narrative is the key that you said here, Joe. And the only one
00:40 we have to go off of is the Buffalo Bills and the Miami
00:42 Dolphins here. It was a shellacking on the road. Do we
00:44 expect a four touchdown win tonight by the Eagles? Probably
00:46 not here. But also you have to remind ourselves the Eagles lost
00:49 last week to the New York Jets. And one of the key contributors
00:51 was not there was Darius Slay. He's gonna be back in this
00:54 ballgame tonight. Jalen Carter looks like he's gonna be good to
00:56 go. And one of the big cogs, Kevin, in the offensive line,
00:58 Lane Johnson also is expected to be out tonight when we didn't
01:01 know if it was a season ending injury multiple weeks IR, but it
01:04 looks like he's going to give it a run. If we're looking at
01:06 weather conditions tonight, scoring opportunities, they'll
01:08 be there roughly about 6570 degrees tonight 10 mile an hour
01:11 wind. So it is optimum. But you are looking at the Miami
01:14 Dolphins and how they can compete straightforward here
01:17 with that defensive line for the Philadelphia Eagles. Jalen
01:19 Carter should be back today pushing that pocket. We'll see
01:22 if that makes a difference.
01:22 Well, the reason why you would expect it to make a difference
01:25 for the head catching items of Miami, of course, being the pass
01:29 attack and Tyreek Hill, it's the ground game that has been such a
01:32 difference maker for them. Raheem Mostert has been
01:35 incredible. He leads the NFL in rushing touchdowns and Devon
01:37 Achan, though injured obviously has set the tempo for what we
01:40 expect from this rushing attack on a week to week basis.
