Episode notes
Why The Eagles Offense Is Limited
- The Eagles' offensive struggles come from poor run-blocking and a limited passing foundation.
- Jalen Hurts' offense has never been a multi-dimensional passing attack and the O-line tape shows real issues.
Barkley's Style Amplifies Line Problems
- Saquon Barkley's running style compounds Philadelphia's line issues because he searches for space and misses holes.
- Greg Cosell compares Barkley to a jazz musician, improvising rather than consistently hitting planned run lanes.
Broncos Use Gap Scheme To Win Inside
- The Broncos' defense uses a gap concept to create one-on-one matchups and win inside.
- Players like Zach Allen and Franklin Myers allow Denver to attack the interior effectively against weak run-blocking O-lines.
