I see Philly as another worthy and dangerous opponent. They have been on the wrong end of a couple very close games so far. I see two advantages for the Pack on a short week. They are playing at home and are healthier. I believe team health on a short week where not much can get accomplished with so little practice time as a big advantage.

This game is kind of a weird setup for me. The offense should be better against a banged up Philly D but I don't really think that would necessarily mean the offense has turned the corner. It would mean something to do what you should be able to do under the circumstances.. On the other hand it will be an oh oh moment if the offense doesn't take advantage of what's there for the taking and sputters.

At some point the narrative has to move beyond the point of the offense being new and having played against good defenses to ok now things are starting to roll.

Many good points Warhawk.
At some point the offense has to start playing up to its potential. After tonight, the season is one quarter over.
They need to start carrying their weight.

Remember the 15-1 season? The offense was scoring all the time. It was the defense that was the big let down, and what ended up killing the team.

Now is the time to put both together and get on a roll. No more “the offense didn’t play in the preseason games “ excuse.

I'd feel more comfortable if our O was more consistent
