The Philadelphia Eagles will try to sweep the AFC North when the Steelers pay a visit in Week 15, and the it will be a physical game.
PHILADELPHIA – The last thing the Eagles want to do is to try to force the pass against a Pittsburgh Steelers defense that leads the league in takeaways. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has been good at not giving the ball up, with only one interception during the Eagles nine-game winning streak, which will be tested by a Steelers team that, like Philly, leads its respective division.
With all the talk about the Eagles’ passing game needing to get on track, the last thing they need to do is overcorrect and Hurts starts taking chances in the air. The attack will begin, as it always does with the Eagles, trying to get Saquon Barkley loose behind an Eagles offensive line that is one of the best in the business.
With Barkley, who leads the league in yards rushing with 1,623, the Eagles run offense ranks first in the NFL, averaging 190.5 yards per game. Pittsburgh’s run defense is fourth in the league and has limited Ravens running back Derrick Henry to 65 yards on 13 carries and, in two games against the Browns’ Nick Chubb, held him to 48 yards on 11 carries and 59 yards on 20 rushes.
