The Philadelphia Eagles are hosting the New Orleans Saints this Sunday. The Saints are a high scoring team, so with a little luck we’ll see some points on the board. In week 1, Jeremy Maclin was on the field but failed to record any offensive stast. In his defense, Jake Delhomme threw like 8 interceptions and the game was out of hand by halftime. I was surprised that the Eagles didn’t use Jeremy in special teams at all.

With the Saints coming to town, I expect there to be a lot of scoring. They don’t have a good defense and they like to throw the ball. If this game turns into a shootout, the Eagles might put up some points but I doubt they’ll win… especially if McNabb doesn’t play. The Eagles need to be creative and find way to get Maclin some touches, whether he’s used in the slot or some type of wildcat formations. He has too much speed and ability to waste.

Other rookies like Percy Harvin and Louis Murphy had big games last weekend. It’s time for Maclin to step up into the national spotlight.
