| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to another episode of Inside the Tape with Greg Kosell on Inside the Birds. |
| 0:14.1 | I'm Jeff Mosher alongside Adam Kaplan. |
| 0:16.6 | And of course, we have Greg Kosell to break down on tape the defense by the Eagles in their 38 to 20 win over the Giants. |
| 0:24.8 | We already did offense. |
| 0:25.9 | And as always, each week, we finish it off with the other side of the ball. |
| 0:30.2 | So, Greg, let's get to the Eagles defense because we remember the week six game against the Giants. |
| 0:35.3 | I think the words we kept using were being bullied and |
| 0:38.2 | dominated in the line of at the line of attack in the trenches, but it was not the case this past |
| 0:45.5 | Sunday. The Eagles were a completely different team in the trenches. And we talked about that. |
| 0:49.9 | We said that it's not likely that was going to happen twice in two weeks, three weeks to a |
| 0:53.9 | big fanjo defense. |
| 0:55.4 | That was a game where they made way too many mistakes, guys not playing smart football, which I'm sure got fixed to ender up because, you know, hey, look, sometimes guys may get beat physically. |
| 1:08.0 | That's the NFL, but the mental stuff and not seeing things the right way, |
| 1:12.5 | that's not, coaches don't go for that. So, and that didn't happen in this game. The Giants, I believe, |
| 1:18.6 | only had 246 yards of total offense. And, you know, the thing that's really stood out to me, |
| 1:24.6 | guys, over the last number of weeks, and I'm sure it stood out to you, |
| 1:28.4 | they really have become kind of a foundational cover one defense. They play a lot of man coverage. |
| 1:34.6 | This idea that it's all cover four, you know, obviously that can be in their arsenal any given |
| 1:40.2 | week and maybe a different opponent brings out the cover four depending on who they're playing |
| 1:44.9 | but they have played a lot of man coverage over these last number of weeks i think they're the |
| 1:50.6 | third highest percentage of playing cover one in the nfl right now every like this is not what |
| 1:55.9 | fan here is done throughout the years he just oh it's funny when he was in in Denver and he had Sartan, they played a lot of cover one. Did they? Because they haven't done it here. No, no. I'm going back. I'm trying to Chicago, Greg. What was? Not a lot of cover one in Chicago. Right, right. Well, I think the commonality is I think when when Vic knows he's got a front |
