Eagles aren't afraid to blitz

The Ravens better be prepared for the blitzes of the Eagles. Philadelphia loves to bring pressure, and the Eagles will come from anywhere. The Eagles aren't afraid to blitz out of their dime package, and one of their favorite ploys is to come hard off the edge.

The Eagles will play four cornerbacks, two of them inside or near the slot positions. They like to bring both or one of their inside cornerbacks. One of their favorites is Joselio Hanson. The Eagles are tied for the league lead in sacks with 36 with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Ravens are going to have their hands full this week with the Eagles, I am getting the impression that the fans in Balto. are looking at this as a game the Ravens will win easily and that is a big mistake. The Eagles are a very tough football team that is well coached and has talent, if taken lightly they will hnad you your hind parts in a bag and your bruised ego will simmer until the following Sunday. If the Ravens take them lightly as the fans are doing we will be in for a long day, many QB's have gotten healthy on the Ravens defense, I hope it does not happen this week. There will be a lot of sad fans this week if the Ravens don't play 100%. Do not take this team lightly or we will lose!

I'm not sure we (baltimore fans) take this game easily... It's going to be a huge matchup against a really tough team! they've got good corner that will allow them to blitz heavily! they've got a QB who can beat you by his arm or by is feet! It's going to be very hard regarding all the injury we have... without gaither or anderson at tackle, flacco will feel tons of pressure, hope the kid can handle that! Go ravens Go!
