**Cornerback Cary Williams won a Super Bowl last year with Baltimore, so he knows how a defense needs to play down the stretch. The Eagles have made nice progress throughout this season and have, in fact, not permitted more than 21 points in any of their last seven games - the longest active streak in the league.
"We're getting there and I also think we all understand that a lot of work is ahead to get to where we need to be," said Williams. "The play up front has improved, which impacts everyone. I think that confidence is the big reason. Everybody understands what the coaches are looking for and we've all worked hard studying that. You see the results. We all feel like it's improving."
