Stop the pass rush and you have opportunities. The Vikings didn't get consistent pressure either game and their dbs got exposed. Waynes got beat a lot and even the all pros Smith and rhodes struggled.2. Stick with the run. The run opened up especially on the edges which surprised me with Minnesota's speed. They seemed to know the defensive ends would crash hard and made them pay.3. Use the te. This was especially big for philly.4. Don't be afrad to throw at Rhodes. Thomas and Jeffrey were able to make catches on Rhodes. And then once Rhodes went out each game that secondary became very vulnerable5. Viking's over persue. Barr and their other linebackers seemed to take a lot of bad angles.6. Stay aggressive. Throw it deep. Even one of the ints Brees had should have been a tdAll this could be a two game fluke or a blueprint for how to beat the Vikings going forward.</blockquote>
