PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Eagles are back in the groove, coming off their bye week and are ready to take on the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

For the one guy who said they were a bit overworked, the time off was much needed.

"It was awesome just to be able to get away and get your mind off football for a little bit - to refresh your mind, refresh your legs, your body and to just spend some time away," said Cary Williams.

Now they'll have to fly away - way out West to take on the Cardinals, a team that is also 5-1.

:"It's a big time game. It's an NFC opponent. If you look forward, which we don't like to do, it could mean something down the road. Just like any other game we want to go out there and take care of business," said Jeremy Maclin.

Ripped from the headlines this week has been Chip Kelly's quote that 'Culture beats scheme every day" Coach Kelly didn't want to elaborate on that Tuesday but LeSean McCoy says he agrees with him.

"I think if you look at our team at 5-1, so many people say this and say that but they have to respect the record, they gotta respect that we're a winning team. No matter how ugly the game is, during that game there's a chance we're gonna win- a big chance that we're gonna win. That's the kind of coach we have here, we win games and we play hard,

"He has guys in this locker room who can play football and also represent this organization off the football field. When you have group of guys who care about each other and a group of guys who want to be successful, then you win football games," said Maclin.

And they hope to win another one on Sunday.
