Eagles aware of Bobby Carpenter

Gerry Fraley/Reporter

The recent productive play by Dallas Cowboys linebacker Bobby Carpenter caught the attention of Philadelphia offensive coordinator Marty Morhinweg.
``He's very good,'' Morhinweg said. ``He's made a couple of real good tackles with a blocker right there. He's playing at a high level, and they are putting him in situations that are his strength.''
Carpenter, credited with participating in eight tackles and one sack in the last two games, plays primarily in the pass-coverage sub-package. He has played a large role in limiting top-shelf tight ends in the last two games. Atlanta's Tony Gonzalez and Seattle's John Carlson combined for only seven catches.

:laugh2:

I know some people would get a kick out of this.

He's been the butt of all jokes with Cowboy fans since he got drafted, and for the most part deservingly so. But you got to admit he's been playing pretty good as of late. Apparently good enough to get the attention of Eagle's OC. I wonder if the comment was unsolicited or if he was answering a specific question about Carp. Maybe he is just trying to lull Carp into a false sense of confidence and BAM.:D

This is the 1st time I have seen the other team comment on Carpenter leading up to the game. They got their eye on you Carpenter here is your big chance go make the most of it.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Dude makes one play and he's a superstar.

You know what though? I've heard people rave about his play all season. Especially his coverage in the nickel. It may not show in the stats and honestly I can't tell whether he's having a solid year or not but scouts and Cowboys coaches seem to think so. It is a contract year so its not surprising.

1 sack in the last 2 games, what an animal!

Come on. I know we rag on the guy but he's production isn't from the sack department. He's out there for coverage purposes. I don't recall any tight ends or fullbacks going crazy on us so someone is doing something right.

He's playing pretty well. I don't want to put a percentage on it, but a large part of being a successful competitor is confidence. Bobby has seemed to have almost none. If he can develop some game, that's a big positive for us.

I will say this...Bobby is very good at sticking to TEs in coverage within 7-10 yds of the LOS. That's usually good enough to force the QB to go to the next option.

He is playing better but nothing like a 1st rd pick if he was he would be starting instead of being in nickel only. At least he is contributing and I hope he can go out and make some plays for us this weekend
