Do the Eagles have a chance to make the Super Bowl? (2:36)

The Eagles could make a long playoff run, according to Rob and Adam. There is a time and a place for it.

The Eagles running back said he is ready to go for the opener against the Lions.

After missing the first preseason game against the New York Jets, he was a full participant in Wednesday's practice as the Lions prepared for the game.

"It's just one of those injuries you don't want to risk in camp, so I attacked the rehab and I'm ready to go," he said.

A team that led the league in rushing with 160 yards per game last season is expected to be led by the 25-year-old. He missed time with ankle and hand injuries and finished with 754 yards on 137 carries.

This upcoming season is a little personal for him and he wants to get the respect he finally deserves.

He's expected to get the majority of the carries, with Kenneth Gainwell, Boston Scott and the recently acquired Trey Sermon as the other backfield options.

Steichen said thatMiles was their guy. Adding another talented player likeSermon will be good for us.
