Eagles Strategy - Play Tuesday Quick Turnaround for Sunday (1 Viewer)

[tarheel4ever]

So, my assumption is that the Eagles are going to crush the Vikings on Tuesday unless the Vikings have a major turnaround. With the super quick turnaround to play on Sunday against Dallas, does Vick play the whole game Tuesday night?

yes

 

[Wooderson]

I think he plays the whole game as well. It's not often players leave games early. And what's more he is in the running for MVP.

I'm more worried about DeSean, Vick is making the MVP push and he's been dinged.

But with Philly clinching the division, they could definately pull their foot off the pedal.

If Vick rests it'll be at the very end of the game, maybe 5 minutes to go or something. He's not going to leave the game with a quarter to go or anything.The problem is it's everyone's assumption that the Eagles are going to crush the Vikings. More than likely, somehow the Vikings will make it closer than what people will think because if it was as easy as just "knowing" the Eagles will crush the life out of Minny, there wouldn't be a place called Las Vegas.

Vick will play because the Eagles have a lot left to play for. The team locked up the division today thanks to the Giants loss, but needs to win out to get the 2 seed (and some help from Chicago).

Vick won't sit until they're at least five scores up.

So, mid-second quarter probably.

I don't see the Eagles treating this game any differently then they always do.

The Eagles are home the following Sunday, not as big a deal.

they barely beat Dallas the first time, and got beaten 3 times last year. It's hardly a lock, regardless of record.

Doubt they are worried about the turnaround time.

Weekend projections call for a 50 percent of showers, so Mayor NUTTer may be forced to declare another weather emergency

Roger Goodell just hooked up Vick in his push for MVP. Now Vick has to live up to his end of the bargain.

I guess you'll just have to watch Alabama's NFL team then.

I think the Mayor had AP on his fantasy team to give him a couple days extra rest as well as Vick to give him better weather.

Right.... just like players play short games on Sundays to rest up for the short week when they have a Thursday game scheduled?
