I'm curious about this play.
I'm guessing the line was using a half slide to their left since Lane squeezed down on the blitzer, as opposed to Kendall, Steen and Lane fanning out.
If so, great recognition by Kendall to notice the late blitz and knowing who is coming free.
Just needs to get more depth to not get caught in traffic like this.
Jalen Hurts gets smacked by TWO defenders on a quick throw.
Mailata checks inside, but he loses because of it.
Drew Kendall.. I don't know what the F he's doing here.
Give this man some damn help.
#Eagles
The Eagles are going to generate a lot of explosive runs centered around Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata being able to hit backside cutoffs on wide zone.
Their combination of size, athleticism and movement skills makes them uniquely equipped to consistently win those blocks.
Eagles isolate DeVonta on the backside of 3x1 formation on 3rd & 12.
Titans play cloud coverage to his side, which prevents them from flooding the trips side with extra defenders.
That creates more space for Wicks to work the dig front side.
Last week, the Titans were often able to play 2 high coverages but stay gapped out in the box because they would often ignore motions like this.
I would do something early to force them to respect the guy running to the flat, whether it's handing off on the jet sweep or quick game. Should help open up more space in the run game after.
The Eagles will still find various ways to run wide zone to the strong side against Over fronts. Split flow is likely to be one of their main ways to do so.
It's also a good counter when defense start to send weak side pressure to combat their weak zone run plays like we see below.
Over Fronts are a staple in Robert Saleh's defense.
Here's a way I expect the Eagles to attack that front.
Will be interesting to see how protections get called
Eagles will move Cam Jurgens to guard and Drew Kendall to start at center today vs. Titans, sources tell @RapSheet and me.
More on OL change + Eagles prep for blazing Nashville heat:
Idk I thought it was kinda cool to see a team think outside the box and use their stadium design to their advantage.
The NFL informed teams that the league has modified what can be shown on video boards during field goal and extra-point attempts, an alteration coming in the wake of a viral social-media post.

Literally just copy and pasting someone else's work
One thing for the Eagles run game — if they are going to press the issue to work horizontally and attack angles downfield, the splits need to widen up front pre-snap. If they don’t, and your OL plays condensed, then you need to win vertically and get bodies off the ball.
The run tape vs WSH was very reminiscent of last year when Saquon was hit before the LOS consistently because there was no vertical push. It’s a small thing, but the splits up front to execute the stretch run game will be something to watch this week against Tennessee, along with the PA off of wide zone to influence the LBs and execute what they want over the middle of the field.
The graphics are a bit much but this is by far the best angle to watch the game.
You can actually see the OL splits, the front, how the 2nd level relates to the front and the secondary rotation.
Also see how the routes develop and where the holes are being created in the run game.
Hopefully this means a "healthy" Dickerson is much closer to his 2024 form. Guess we'll see
“Honestly, I played like s*** yesterday. I was a complete liability. It was my fault. I should not be out there until I feel healthy. A few weeks ago, someone rolled up on me in practice. We got some imaging on it today. Really the best plan going forward is to put me on IR so I can have a good stretch at the back end of the season. I don’t think anybody wants to see that again. That was ugly. That was BS. This is not related to last season.”
Landon Dickerson on being placed on injured reserve for at least a month. He just spoke on WIP Radio
Pre-snap there's 3 gaps to the left of the center and 4 defenders. High indication of a blitz and/or line movement. Need to get out of this play

🧵: Before the #Eagles season opener later today, wanted to thread some of my film work this spring and summer as the 2026 team starts to take shape.
First, my look Sean Mannion’s East-West Shrine Bowl experience and where he might draw influences:
