Minnesota’s defense could exploit the weakness
If Dickerson sits out, the Vikings’ defensive coordinator is likely to dial up inside pressure. Minnesota’s front seven has been particularly aggressive on third downs, often disguising blitz packages that attack the A-gaps — exactly where Dickerson’s protection is most valuable.
Expect Hunter and linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. to test the Eagles’ interior line early and often. For Philadelphia, containing that pressure will be the key to keeping Hurts upright and allowing the offense to establish rhythm.
