Interesting matchup here, as PHI tries to remain the only unbeaten NFC team.PHI comes into the game undefeated and 2-0 on the road this year - @CHI and @DET (combined 4 wins - 3 by DET). CLE is currently sitting at 3-3, but is 3-0 at home with wins against BAL, WAS, and CIN (combined 6 wins - half of those by BAL)PHI is scoring 27.4 ppg and only allowing 12.6 ppg. They average 106 rushing yards and 260 passing yard. Their Defense gives up 103 rushing yards and 226 passing yards.CLE is scoring 19.3 ppg and is giving up 18.8 ppg. CLE averages 113 rushing yards and 181 passing yards.Their D holds the opponents to 105 yards rushing and 218 yards passing.Seems pretty even there except for the 80 extra yards that PHI is getting through the air. But if you look deeper at the numbers (splits) you'll see that CLE's D has been WAY better at home: 73 yards/gm rushing at home vs. 137 yards/gm on the road177 yards/gm passing at home vs. 280 yards/gm on the road. I honestly think that if CLE can get the running game going early, it'll be a long day for PHI in the Dog Pound
and they will be handed their first loss of the season.
