The Eagles ran the ball very well early against the Falcons in their January playoff win, but struggled in the last 2 1/2 quarters. They gained 79 yards on their first 11 carries, but only 17 on their final 21 attempts. The Eagles will rotate their top three backs: Jay Ajayi, Darren Sproles and Corey Clement. The speedy Sproles, who missed most of last season with an ACL injury, gives the run game an element it lacked last season without him.
