Lang Big on Saints

FWIW

Just heard Lang talking about Saints v Eagles game on NBC radio.

He is very bullish on the Saints, basically said that Eagles didn't deserve to be in the playoffs, got beaten down by the Saints in previous game, and gave up too many yards against Trubisky and Brees is better, Eagles defense let Bears drive down for potential winning field goal.

Exact words "There's a reason teams get blown out in the playoffs, its because they don't deserve to be there".

Hes got a point...even a broken clock gets it right at times

Everytime I listen to any commentators they go on about the last game between Eagles and Saints

IMO the last game was an Eagle away game sandwiched by divisional games against Giants and Cowboys, and a lot if Eagles players were unavailable.

IMO the Eagles mailed that one in to focus on the divisional games.

Implied win probability for Eagles based on ML is around 23%.

Which looks about right

Brees will get his yards vs Eagles secondary, if the Eagles receivers are healthy Foles should get his as well.
