The Facts:
The best thing for the Eagles, OC Marty Mornhinweg suspects, may be less of their best player. Less Westbrook? Yep. ... "We really leaned on him hard last year," Mornhinweg said. "We had to. We had no choice. We were forced to because of injuries."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As versatile as Westbrook is, Mornhinweg believes the Eagles grew predictable last year -- out of necessity. Although they ranked sixth in the NFL in offense, the Eagles were only 17th in scoring. And even an All-Pro running back enjoying one of the greatest seasons in NFL history wasn't enough to bump the Eagles over .500. That's why Mornhinweg thinks more balance will not only help the offense become less predictable but will also make Westbrook more dangerous. ... We'll suggest that wanting to use Westbrook less and actually doing so are two different things.
