Playing cover 2 isn’t getting cute. It’s about as basic as it gets. The Steelers went to a look they had never shown on film. Credit to Roethlisberger for making it up on the fly. Discredit to us for not calling TO. 

It is when you have Gerry on the field covering claypool in the slot.

Start the rookies.

Keep Wentz, Mailata, Kelce (if he doesn't retire), Seumalo, Brooks, Johnson, Fulgham, , Hightower, Goedert, Jaegor, Sanders, Hargrave, Malik Jackson, Singleton, Taylor, Slay, McLoed, K'von Wallace.

Everyone else = whatever draft picks you can get.

Lol I was going to say you forgot about our 1st rounder

Fwiw, it was Cover 6. Quarter-quarter-half.

Didn’t Schwartz say it was cover 2? Maybe it was Big Ben?

I know McLeod called it Cover 6 in his postgame press conference. Last time I looked at it, that's what I remember seeing. I'd have to look at it again though to be sure.

Solak called it Cover 6, The boundary was in Cover 2 the field side was in Cover 4

I won’t pretend that I’m some coverage aficionado. He would know much better than I. A quick google search says it combines the best of cover 4 and cover 2!

This has to be BS.  If true, absolutely disfunctional.

What? How is that process even allowed? How the hell did Lurie ok this? How are Doug and Schwartz even compliant with this? That's a horrible process

Looked like cover 2 to me in real time, but they can look similar if you're only looking at one side of the field. I'll rewatch it later tonight so as to not regurgitate my dinner.

Not a chance that's true.

No way...there's no way that can be true.  If so this team is effed.  Top to bottom would have to be cleaned out.

Actually, in that scenario only Howie would have to go.  Does raise the question though.  Schwartz has to know Gerry sucks.  Maybe he does not have the choice to not play him.

I can remember Sean Lee running down the seam with our WRs in cover 2 and it not being open. Of course, he was also awesome when healthy. 

Yup.  Very much so.

I remember that. They had one healthy LB on the roster. I said at the time I thought it might have been the wave of the future. It wasn’t. 

You've been to the future?  😵     When does this pandemic thing go away and 'normal' come back?

I dont believe that for a minute, no way a super bowl winning coach would agree to this....heck no coach would

Ya know guys, a source at Eagles practice told me Nate Gerry is actually good but sucks on purpose to repent for his teenage tweets. Working to confirm.

Is Jason Kelce the worst snapper of the football in NFL history?

Josh Allen is a hell of a QB,and best arm in the game

Helluva block by Knox to seal the edge. He was serving up pancakes. 

You guys need to venture out lol

I'm all alone

Same. Basically how I understand it is Cover 2 on whatever side of the field has less players lined up and Cover 4 where there is more.

NFL guys know what they’re doing. I have no idea how anyone could watch Josh Allen in his final year of college and think he’d be a really good QB. He’s a baller.

Sounds blown out of proportion. More likely would be this is referring to which PS players are elevated, which, yea, you aren't really going to know until the weekend.
