Opposing offenses that will stress the Philadelphia Eagles new-look defense

The Philadelphia Eagles can show what their defense is made of versus Kliff Kingsbury and always exciting Kyler Murray.

We have a good one in Week 5 dudes and dudettes. The Philadelphia Eagles take to the road to Arizona to face the Cardinals in a fantastic battle of two of the NFC’s best. Eagles have to come to town ready to deal with Kyler Murray and a high-speed offense.

The Arizona Cardinals pack quite the punch on offense with their just sheer speed on the outside with Rondale Moore and Hollywood Brown. They have a still productive former Eagle at tight end in Zach Ertz and plenty of options for Kyler Murray to unleash that beautiful deep ball too.

The Eagles can not sleep on Murray’s legs. They will churn out yards in bunches and can get this Cardinals team rolling.

Arizona doesn’t have a necessarily great offensive line and that would be a weakness for Philly to exploit in this matchup for sure. They have to be ready to contain and if they can get some hits on Kyler, it could spell disaster for the Cardinals in this one.

Philly gave up two huge games and one decently big game to rushing QBs last year. They gave up 41 and 51 points to Dak Prescott, 42 to Patrick Mahomes, and 27 to Justin Herbert. This Eagles defense is younger, faster, and more talented this year though, so hopefully, that’s enough to overturn that recent pattern.

This game will be a good early gauge in the NFC to see where the Eagles land in the pecking order. Many believe, including me, that they are nearing the top. This game against the Cardinals will show us if this is a Philly team to take seriously in 2022.
