A short week of preparation at the NovaCare Complex is almost complete as they use Wednesday afternoon as the travel day to Detroit where the Eagles have a game to win. Detroit has won two straight games after the Lions rattled the coaching staff and ripped apart the front office. The Lions have some momentum. Playing on Thanksgiving Day is a big deal to the team and to the fans.
The Eagles? Somehow they've got to get back to winning after two home losses knocked this team down to 4-6.
And the defense, Ryans knows, has a large rebound to make after Sunday's troubles.
