Episode notes
Take Points When Context Demands
- Avoid reflexively going for it on fourth down; sometimes take the easy points when field position and opponent suggest a low-scoring game.
- Factor opponent strength and your QB's comfort in weather before choosing aggressive fourth-down tactics.
Eagles Are Becoming A Defensive Team
- The Eagles' identity shifted from offense-first to defense-first after personnel additions and injuries forced offensive decline.
- Vic Fangio's front seven and corner play can carry the team through low-scoring stretches.
Adjust Gameplans For Big-Game QBs
- Monitor quarterbacks for 'big game' performance issues; a QB who throws multiple turnovers in big spots costs games.
- Coaches should tailor gameplans to reduce pressure on such QBs in marquee matchups.
