To help illustrate the holistic alternative to your granular approach, think about "the play” you are describing above, which you are analyzing at the time of its completion, and move back in time to just before the snap of that play. At that presnap moment do you have any way of knowing what Fangio has assigned to each of the OLBs as their "job” on the play?

Don't need to know... before the play.

Im talking about after the play is over.. what was the player's assignment and did he do his job. Correct.

Then you are talking about a fraction of what he is expected to be prepared for.

How do you know what the play is going to be before the play happens? How do you know if the player is prepared for all the possible plays?

Have you ever reviewed Fangio’s documentation of what he expects from each position?

Doesn't matter... if he has Nolan Smith line up 52 times ( on the edge with 2 DTs and an opposite edge) and he drops back 3 times into coverage.. then to me...49 times he was a DE in a 4 man front...the other 3 times he was a coverage LB.

I don't know the play..nor need to know. Im not playing.

No. He can only be one, and he needs to be prepared for all the possibilities. That is basic corporate Human Resources, as well as wise risk management.

I’m done. If you want to talk to yourself about this, be my guest.

How about i hire you and another guy... the other guy i will call a janitor... you can have whatever title you want. Both of you sweep floors, empty the trash and clean the toilets.

But I want you to be able to do my quarterly statements if necessary.

What is the reality of your position?

Chief Financial Officer

Washington on 4th and inches has to hand off from the shot gun formation. Daniels looks awful.

A lot in the local media believe it won't be close. The physical whipping wasn't a fluke in February, neither was the loss to the Chargers.

KC has the mystique... not sure it exists vs our team. Our QB still has the same screen saver on his phone...we won the last rematch... at their place.

My concern for the Eagles.... Dickerson's health. That's where I feel they could exploit us with Jones.

Wow. I hope they and you are right. I worry even with Carter playing, the D line is not nearly as good as it was with Williams and Sweat. Hopefully I’m wrong there.

Jones is a game wrecker for sure.

Go Birds!

That's what they are saying... im not so confident of a blowout... but wouldn't shock me.

Tough night. Not a fan of these Thursday games, it's nice to have something to watch, but just not great for the players and it always seems like sloppy play

Just greed by the NFL(and Amazon). If they could have a game every night they would

Z Smith is better than Sweat. Ojomo is trending toward being as good as Williams. Davis is better this year than last year. N Smit and Hunt are also expected to have improved. Carter is Carter. The only thing the Eagles Front has to be fortunate in will be injuries.

Packers didn’t look sloppy

Packers looked straight up dangerous! They just kept taking deep shots…only off by fingertips too.

How many points they score at half? Compared to Eagles last Thursday?

You have your new NFC team to root for this year... no more SF and Detroit?
