Philadelphia Eagles top obstacle, advantage to beating each playoff team
Biggest advantage: Is there an advantage? Biggest disadvantage: Too many weapons
On the surface, it appears that there’s no real way to stop the Baltimore Ravens’ offense or beat them consistently when their defense is on the field. The Ravens have a stud at quarterback. They’re great on defense. They’re well-coached. They’re healthy. We’ve seen great individual regular-season performances by great mobile quarterbacks before.
Think Michael Vick and Kordell Stewart.
Will Philly be able to take one guy out of coverage to spy Lamar Jackson? No, they can’t, and truthfully that doesn’t seem to work anyway. Can they stop him from leaving the pocket and making a few big plays with his legs? That probably isn’t working wither.
The only chance you have is loading the box, forcing Jackson to throw more than he runs, and hoping that the inexperience and big moments will get to him at some point.
