Phila i think is better than their record.
Pats can not afford to make the same number of mistakes it did against Baltimore. I am confident that they will not repeat the same performance, but time will tell.
We will see if the Pats will adjust the personal to deal with the running game, my guess that they will, and we will see how effective it is a week from Sunday.
I thought the @Balt and @Phila would be the toughest tests as well as home against KC.
Be nice of Harry can help with some snaps.
Should be a fun game between Phila and NE

My general dislike of the Patriots aside, it's a fact that Bill Belichick's Patriots make very few mental mistakes, game to game, season in season out. They're very 'Terminator'-like in that regard. If there's a weakness to the Chiefs that I've consistently pointed to over the last 40 years, it's been a lack of mental discipline. Fortunately, they seem to finally learning how to be tougher in the brainpan.
PHI will probably make some mental blunders, was my point. If I could, I'd bet money on it. They are that predictable in that respect. The only question that remains is how much will it cost them in the game. Because there's almost no way that the Patriots don't take advantage of whatever dumbass-ery the Eagles end up doing.
One last thought: were I Pederson I would game plan to run the ball at least 20 times in the first half. The DL is where the Pats D is weakest. push them around, wear them out, frustrate them and they will start making mistakes, which is the path to victory for the Eagles. And the Cowboys when their turn comes up.
