What are the 2% of scenarios where you score more than the other team but lose?
That's when your team is not making the playoffs and you win a meaningless game and lose draft position :laugh:

We need to release the dogs of war on Jalen Hurts, and when we flush him from the pocket we need to make sure that little turd goes down the drain:mad:

I have said over and over on this site for years.......

No pass rush, no pass defense.

Once this team was able to harass the QB, the pass defense became better. Not to take anything away from the DB's. But their time covering the receivers is critical in stopping the other team. Get the QB off his spot and have defenders creating a chaotic pocket is how defenses win.

We all saw that this past Sunday.

The only change none of us could predict was one player changing the dynamics of the defensive line to such a great degree. Parsons has elevated the play of the entire eleven men on the field when he enters the game.

Kind of coincidental his number is 11.

Good read. I was saying yesterday in another thread that Philly can prep all they want for Parsons and make sure they have multiple guys to block him but it won’t matter. They’ll just drop Micah out and send someone else. There are just too many good pass rushers that Quinn can throw at them.

When the offense moves protection, Quinn just changes the rush.

They are a deep, elite front.

Pretty much sums up how a Front Office is killing it at the grocery store.

IMO more like Dumb and Dumber in the FO, IMO, and things are clicking despite them.

We don't need to discount the players' contributions to Quinn's scheme. In the Sounds from the Sideline post, Lawrence talks to Parsons about the guard sliding out to help against him and how they could take advantage of it by Lawrence coming around the guard and Parsons taking the outside against the tackle. It worked to perfection on Parsons' first sack. The guard slid over to help the tackle, but Parsons went outside and the guard couldn't get back when Lawrence shot inside to get pressure before Parsons finished off Stafford. That was a beautiful example of teamwork within the scheme.

The second vid showed a good example of LVE being a floor general, especially with the timing of the DL shift.
It was perfect.
