Nzoner's Game Room>alright defensive geniuses, what's your plan for the Eagles?
Chris Meck 06:58 AM 02-01-2023
I thought I'd split this off from the mega thread, because that's kind of the smack talking section arguing with Philly fans and Diqlix's mults.

But all of you Spags haters really should ante up here with YOUR scheme and game plan for the Super Bowl.

Personally, I'd like to see a Hurts spy on every play, but not the SAME spy every play. A mix of Gay, Sneed from the slot, maybe Cook or Reid from a SS type spot. I want a different lurking spy at all times.

If I'm blitzing, I'm coming A and B gaps. Our DE's have got to be mindful of containment.

Probably not a game where you're going to see a lot of sacks from outside unless we get out to a big lead early. Their defense is really good, so I'm not expecting that.

Other than a spy, Just keep showing one thing pre-snap and doing another post. I think you can confuse Hurts. But if he's unsure, he's going to take off, and you'll want that spy to neutralize.

My initial thought as well.

Emphasis on stopping the run. On obvious passing downs mix up coverages and throw in some pressure. Hurts is good, but so is Burrow and Spags flumoxed him enough.

Plus word is Hurts should still isn't right. Make him prove it early on especially.

More like 'contain the run'... or 'don't give up 250 yards rushing'.

The 49ers had one of the more creative run games a few years ago, ran for 140, and it was 13-10 late in the 3rd.

Who cares, let 'em run all they want between the 10s and have them kick field goals all night

Protect Patrick at all costs.. Our Oline tends to have let downs after good games.. Phillys Dline is really good..

Jalen Hurts vs blitzes with zone coverage
EPA per drop back 31st in NFL
Sacked on 10% of drop backs

Jalen Hurts vs blitzes with man coverage
EPA per drop back: 2nd in the NFL

When they blitz, it appears zone will work better.

Interesting. I was unaware of that discrepancy.

I suppose that makes sense. deciphering zones in real time would seem to be his cryptonite.
