and welcome back to inside the tape on inside the birds network you have myself clay harbor former

philadelphia eagle's tight end and the the man, the myth, the legend,

Greg Cosell, the man watches more tape than anybody.

I think the NFL quarterbacks and head coaches do.

And we don't need any further introduction.

Today we're going to talk a little bit about the Miami game, talk about what we saw on tape,

and then we're going to move in to next week, as we always do, talking about the opponent, the matchups, what we saw in film, what the Eagles

need to do to get you seven and one.

Well, before we get there, before we skip ahead of that, we have to talk about this, this huge

win the birds had on Sunday night here, Greg.

And looking at the film, we've had a few days of digested to really go over,

to really see what happened.

What stood out to you in the Eagles victory over the dolphins?

In some ways, I wasn't surprised by anything.

The Eagles did exactly what you have to do when you play Miami, which is play high percentage split safety, which they had to do, first of all, because they were playing with Sidney Brown and Terrell Edmonds, who's no longer an eagle, obviously. They played a ton of split safety. The one thing that did strike me as really interesting about what they did was they chose to play

with their five-man front.

But I'm sure that that was a function of the fact that they were going to play, you know,

essentially split safety.

They played a high percentage of cover two, which is not something

they normally do. But that's, they chose not to treat the Dolphins base personnel as 11 personnel,

meaning three wide, which a lot of teams do. And they played with their base 5-2 front with split safeties behind.

And that's exactly what you have to do to play against the Dolphins.
