Gannon, especially against top tier QBs, is terrified of being beat deep. So he'll never blitz, sit back in zone, and force long drives. The problem is guys like Mahomes can keep slicing and dicing that zone crap to death. We had 2 top outside corners and their receivers are nothing special -- this was a game to go against trend and blitz while playing man. But Gannon has only one card in the deck.

Yep.  Have to adjust during that game and he can't/won't do it.  Especially that last drive man.  Just have to sell out with pressure so you either stop them or they score quick and you get the ball back.  You absolutely cannot let them bleed out the clock there.

The Bengals dropped 8 into coverage a lot which I think would've been a better look for us since the pass rush was never getting home. I saw that Mahomes got the ball out on average of 2.23 seconds. You either blitz or drop everyone into coverage and make them adjust.

Point to note — pro soccer fields are intentionally made to be a bit slick both for the amount of slide tackles and for how the ball travels on the ground. Usually the grass is shorter and the field is damp.

Nice find.

Please, Arizona. Please. 🙏🏻

Don’t know what they consider pressure. When i went back and watched he had 3 i thought were really good pressures that actually forced mahomes into an errant pass or trying to run or flustered him. They also all came first half if i remember what my notes at home say.

He was probably on the ground for half of those due to slipping but he forced Mahomes to from the pocket so it counts as a pressure. That's my only guess lol

Not that I want to actually do this, but I bet he’d be a hell of a defensive coach.

THIS. A million times this.

Situational awareness was crucial. And he failed to understand that whatever outcome was to occur, it needed to happen quickly.

From PFF’s game review…

Despite the result, the Philly offensive line was spectacular in the passing game, allowing just three total pressures — all hurries — across 42 pass-blocking snaps on first review.

Not buying it.  Hurts had to roll left and throw the ball away at least 3 times.  I guess all of his other throws were stress-free.

Yup. I mentioned after the Texans game and the weeks that followed that Gannon is way too slow with his in game adjustments. Tends to wait until halftime to do them if he does.  if his initial game plan is working he’ll just stick with it even if teams adjust then start having success. When his initial game plan fails and then he gets to go into halftime to finally make some adjustments. 

When the chiefs got the ball back last, it didn’t matter if they hit a homerun type play or not. If they methodically move the ball down field and eat clock you likely lose. Which they did. But even if they hit a homerun type play if you blitzed in that situation and they scored then you still are getting the ball back with time for your offense to drive down the field and tie it. His stubbornness to stay in his comfort zone the last drive sealed the eagles fate as soon as mahomes got the ball unless the defense pulled a Brandon graham from SB LII which wasn’t likely with how the defense was rushing the passer

I’m not 100 percent but I don’t think it counts as a pressure to them if a QB eventually leaves a good pocket because of good coverage. 

A little more context in here. 

McNabb sounding so joyful on WIP right now after the Eagles loss.

I’m the next tweet it talks more about it says  "end his amazing nfl career”. I wouldn’t call it amazing tbh lol 

Spotrac Market Value tab on some Eagles pending UFA's:

 

Cox at $14M -- no thanks

Graham at $5.7M -- seems low, I might consider that.  Not much higher, though

Hargrave at $20.1M -- wow, that's a lot of a DT.  I like him a lot, but not at that price

Kelce at $11.9M -- of course, he's great value at that number

Bradberry at $15.1M -- I like Bradberry but I wouldn't be able to pay him that.  

Seumalo at $12.1M -- on the fence with that one.  If Kelce stays, I think you put Jurgens at RG and say goodbye

Kyzir White at $8.5M -- I don't think so.  He just doesn't make enough plays

Edwards at $11.9M -- that's a hard no for me

Sanders at $7.2M -- so long, Miles.  Draft a guy

CJGJ at $13.3M -- gotta bring him back; he's a playmaker on defense.  On this defense that's a unicorn.

I guess he’s drinking again?

Eliiott hasn't missed a FG in the playoffs and only missed 2 XP, which was his rookie year. Nice to have a reliable kicker. 

Now draft or sign a real punter please
