Philadelphia, PA (CBS)— Timing can be everything in football. Especially when it comes to a precise, rhythmic offense like the New Orleans Saints have.
A slight tweak can break the metronome of huddle, Drew Brees’ signal count, his number of drop steps to pass and where Jimmy Graham is supposed to be. If the Eagles can mess that timing up, they have a good chance of beating the Saints when they meet 8 p.m. Saturday night at Lincoln Financial Field in the wildcard round of the playoffs.
But there could be other factors involved, too. Outside dynamics that could foil the Saints, like weather, which Saints’ coach Sean Payton threw a few guffaws over when talking to the Philadelphia media this week, and crowd noise, which Eagles’ defensive coordinator Billy Davis feels favors the Eagles.
