Eagles defense

What's the best offensive strategy? Having Martin back will help some but .......



ANDY DALTONQB, DALLAS COWBOYS

Andy Dalton (concussion) is doubtful for Week 8 against the Eagles.
Seventh-round rookie Ben DiNucci will get the nod against an Eagles front-seven that has generated the league's 10th-highest pressure rate and fourth-highest Adjusted Sack Rate through seven games. Amari Cooper and CeeDee Lamb lose value as WR2/3 options with this news while Michael Gallup can be kept on benches across all formats. Philadelphia's defense remains the week's best streaming play for fantasy.

Rookie QB means they run the ball to keep the pressure off him. Getting into a passing game against this Eagles is exactly what they want.

The Eagles D, along with Schwartz at the helm, are a tough matchup for a QB's first game. They will confuse him and his OL. Must run the ball if they are to have any chance.

Run Zeke, take play action deep shots.

 

[Carson]

Attack. Pass. Go deep.

Eagles expect us to lean on the run and will run the same scheme Washington did.

Def think we can hit some deep ones IF Ben has time.........couple of their DBs are out or questionable.

Washington beat them with their defense. Our defense is on a sabbatical this year.

Philly’s 2020 D is not what it’s been in recent years, but with our current O-line and a rookie QB making his first start, they’re gonna come into this game confident.

Creative play-calling will be crucial. Is Kellen Moore willing to lay his balls on the table and go for it?

Then there’s Wentz vs our D...

They just added their starting slot corner and linebacker to the IR

I'd keep attacking the slot

If they play conservative, predictable ball the Cowboys are going to get killed. We all know the E-Gals will be loading the box to stop Zeke/Pollard and will make The Nooch beat them. Quick outs, slants, digs and maybe a screen here and there. Plays to slow the pass rush. Draws. Then mix in deep throws. Maybe a trick play or two. The main thing is to avoid 2nd and long and 3rd and long. Because we all know what is coming.

Shwartz is going to be blitzing leaving his CBs 1 on 1. Nooch has to identify pre snap where to go with the ball. Hopefully, Biadasz can be stellar identifying to help out. Nothing to lose tho, slang that rock #7.

Probably a Michael Gallup type of game.

He’ll get the best looks and throwing him a 50/5 ball seems like a safe option that a young QB could go to a lot.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I don’t know why the game plan isn’t to utilize the legs of our players. They could get creative if they wanted to. Seems like they are still running the same game plan as if Dak is out there.

 

[Ranched]

What defense? Zeke's been an Egals killer since 2016!

 

[CouchCoach]

Well, one thing The Nooch is going to need is no drops or turnovers. The team didn't help out Dalton as much as they should have, the rookie will need everyone to step up their game. In other words, no, those exact words, play like a real team.

 

[cityochamps]

Run off set I or split backs with pollard an zeke in the back field

 

[TheSkaven]

The Eagles have given up about 130 yards per game on the ground this year so you can run on them, in theory. But as others have said, they will stack that box.

So it will be very interesting. I think they need to use Nooch’s mobility in this game. I hope he runs a few QB draws, roll him out to get away from pressure, bootleg, etc.

If they come into this game with the “run Zeke on first and second down every series” game plan, this could get out of hand quick. Let’s see if Kellen Moore really is the boy genius that we think he is. Time for some creativity.

 

[Praxit]

....DiNooky might need to get on his horse sooner than later and run it when option opens up. THats whats Dalty couldn't do.

 

[MRV52]

This is easy, throw passes 10 yards behind line of scrimmage.

 

[Creeper]

hey can't be afraid to throw on first down early in the game, even if it's short stuff. They must get positive yards on early downs.

 

[Aven8]

I’ve watched Philly quite a bit this year and I think we get killed. Wentz is heating up and the D is pretty good.
