I think they definitely played a different style than we're used to. I don't think we were ready to play such a physical game. And how the refs called it, we weren't ready. We'd planned to provide more help-side defense down low, but we didn't execute.

I think the reason we scored so many goals is that the defense played great the past two games. They set up the offense for us.

Kris Canto is to our defense what Nick Clemens is to the offense.

I think as far as linebackers are concerned, if you can run and make plays and if you have an instinct to be around the ball, you'll succeed (in the Eagles' system).
