The Eagles are now 1-1 heading into their Week 3 game against the Saints, and they did little to persuade fans that things will be different than they were at the end of the 2023 season.
New Orleans is coming off a huge win over the Cowboys, and will certainly ride that momentum into Sunday’s game. The Eagles defense will need to stop the run, which they were absolutely incapable of last week against the Falcons.
Keys to this game will be better tackling by the Eagles defense, stopping the Saints from relying on their ground game, and on offense, getting the passing game going so Saquon Barkley doesn’t have to run it the whole time.
