Halftime
OK, the Eagles have moved the ball a lot better than I thought they would. TO has looked healthier than I thought he would. New England doesn't have a modest lead at the half....... That's where I'm wrong.
Philadelphia has had trouble running the ball. With the exceptions of a 30 yard pass to TO on a blatently illegal pick play and a 40 yard jump ball pass to Todd Pinkston, the Eagles have had a little trouble throwing the ball. New England has been able to run the ball when they felt inclined to.... That's where I've been right.
What to look for in the second half:
Philadelphia will run the ball as much as possible when WR/DB Troy Brown is in the game
New England will continue to run the ball well, look for them to keep it on the ground more
Brady will throw a long TD pass to a WR on play action, probably Branch
Not many other thoughts right now. Although the over seems far out of reach right now, New England will score a lot in the second half. We're 34 points away from the over coming in, that's just 5 TD's. A defensive TD by the Pats will probably happen in this half.
Let's hope it doesn't come down to a Vinatieri field goal late, this town couldn't take it......
