Reid Continues His MNF Mastery
Solid game from the Birds, all the way around: Defense, Special Teams, and the Offense. BDB made the right call: Eagles win with a solid defensive performance, as the Birds caused all sorts of problems for one of the most potent offenses of the NFL. My "key" players forecast wasn't bad either, as Westbrook was our leading receiver and rusher and Culpepper was the biggest threat to us all night (in fact, he led the Vikes in rushing yds). The Eagles' defensive stand that forced Daunte's fumble was the signature of the game, as our defense shutdown their key player in the clutch. I woulda liked to see more Westbrook as the game progressed, particularly in the last series. But, hey... hats off to a fine start to the season.
Other notables: Kudos to Lito. He impressed me all night and hardly relied on Dawk's help over the top. Of course, he got beat once by Moss.... but who doesn't in this league? Plus, it happened at a relatively safe point in the game. Our corners also made some excellent tackles tonight. OLine played great all game and showed they can adjust to the Andrews injury (Hicks is quite a guy to have on the bench!!!). JR Reed was impressive. Can't wait to hear what Ron thought of FredEx's illegal pass to McNabb. The Linc was wild and BDB's record at the Linc w/ his MLewis jersey is now: 2-0. Whoops, I shouldn't mention MLewis, as he missed out on an INT for a TD.
