D and DC can’t overcommit to run or pass

Right, no time to overcommit when it's a quick pass. Makes it easier for the D to cover.

A quick pass doesn't allow the defense to over play anything though. Snap then quick pass is ideal as Gibbs will be where he is and no fake or deception of any other play being run.

If Fangio gambles with blitzing when they have the Gibbs pass play setup we’ll get toasted big time.

Thought DeJean outside if only two WR formation. So when inside that means three wr in. How does DeJean cover Gibbs in each of these scenarios?

Why would we move DeJean out? Who covers their TE?

Negates any pass rush

And makes it easier to cover without any deception. Any fakes or any time for other routes to develop deeper to provide Gibbs with room.

Detroit should be 9-0 then? You have uncovered the league's best weapon (3 passes to Gibbs a game)

They’ve been a top contending team failing to become champions the most for the last several years.

Right the LB's will cover and DeJean comes in also. Not real hard to do. It's only a few plays anyhow

Who covers that third Slot WR if DeJean has Gibbs?

So you don't think on a blitz, that they will have a plan for the outlet pass? It's a new concept? Detroit never gets blitzed?

Our LB's can't blitz because they suck we've already established that

With two WR and DeJean outside how does he cover Gibbs?

Why did they fail?

The S on the other side?

Can Detroit control what personnel packages they put on the field creating their matchup against DeJean as the answer?

With 2 WR's we play 2 CB's? Why would DeJean be outside?

How did we do in TB without our 2 top WR's?

Were missing more than that. But sure didn’t have the foresight of supplying a capable stud rookie as that third WR option to turn to. Egbuka is a stud.

But you just came up with the best play in the league. A quick pass ti Gibbs is the most important aspect of the Detroit offense. Why aren't they 9-0. Surely there are most teams without the LB level that the Eagles have.

Well GAWD man we can't win then!!!! Just forfeit

It’s top level football. We have our matchup advantages also.

Think Hutchinson might be a problem for Lane this week. He’s such a stud playing thorough whatever…but need A game against Hutchinson.

But Gibbs quick pass is the most important thing. Just like last year the 12 YAC creation plays to Goedert was more important than Barkley rushing for 2000.

Now you are going into the area that is going to matter the most.

He is. We had other needs at the time? Like defense?

I remember you saying that we are probably going to lose a draft pick. If the league really wants to make us look bad. Not even considering how dumb it was for Howie to make such an obvious mistake, even after he signed all those free agents over the years?

All I did was repeat the news. Under investigation…could lose a draft pick. That’s how it works. I control nothing.

False. I never said we’d lose a draft pick. I just stated my opinion of everybody tampers I don’t see it as any big deal.

BTW I told you Eg would be a stud LOL

Exactly, because with Howie or Siri...if it could go good or bad...Ham always thinks it will be bad. The guy most think is the best GM in sports, not just the league, is going to be an idiot and talk directly to Barkley when he could wait a day?

Every team has been doing this stuff for years. Not even really any hidden secret.

No they get as close as they can to it, but they don't cross the line. If you cross the line you get tagged
