The time has finally come, and we’re just a little under two hours away from the Kelly Green uniforms returning in a Sunday night showdown against the Dolphins.
Julio Jones was elevated from the practice squad, and we’ll make his debut.
The game features two MVP candidates at quarterbacks, two wide receivers on a projection of 1,900+ yards receiving, and game-changing speed on both sides of the football.
Miami enters the contest averaging 37 points per game, and they’ll be headlined by All-Pro receiver Tyreek Hill, who is having an outstanding season – he leads the NFL with 42 receptions, 814 yards, and six touchdowns.
With kickoff fast approaching, here are three keys for the Philadelphia offense.
Run the Dolphins out of the building efficiently
The Eagles lead the league in third-down conversion percentage, they’re second in the NFL in offensive yards and fifth in scoring.
An explosive, knockout performance has been brewing and Sunday night is better than any other night.
In their lone loss to the Bills, the Dolphins defense surrendered 31 points, four touchdown passes, and 320 passing yards in the loss.
Philadelphia has to be physical up front, stout in the running game, and explosve when it matters.
Score touchdowns
Statistically, the Dolphins lead the NFL in scoring, while Philadelphia is bottom of the pack in red zone efficiency.
Miami allows 26 points per game, they’re ranked 26th in the league in defensive red zone efficiency and the Eagles have to score touchdowns, matching the road team blow for blow.
Ride the Kelly Green momentum
DeSean Jackson is in the building, Reggie White’s son Jeremy is the honorary captain, and the Eagles are rocking the Kelly Green uniforms.
The Phillies are one game away from the World Series and Philadelphia has been loud and intense all week long. The Eagles need to ride that energy, catch the Kelly Green wave and dismantle the Dolphins from the first snap.
