Yeah, it is a multifront. 5-2-4, 5-1-5, or 4-2-5. Nothing we haven't seen before. But hopefully used more imaginatively

[@MrStateoftheCity]

Don't forget the 4-1-6 dime and prevent D

It's a 3-3-5 defense

[@icdogg2361]

@@TruthBombDropper85 3-3 and 5-1 are basically the same except for nomenclature. When Dallas does it it's a 3-3. When the Eagles do it it's a 5-1.

[@TruthBombDropper85]

It's a 3-3-5 defense. This really isn't that difficult to figure out lol 3 defensive linemen 3 LBs- 2 off ball and 1 edge rusher 5 DBs- 3 CBs and 2 safeties

[@robertalston4609]

Great, it's about time!

[@ctphillyfan7531]

What a masterclass by JMac

[@JAKIBSports]

Agreed....he crushed this. Learned a LOT listening to him break it down

[@stevexmartin]

I would think the reason they’re in no rush to reassign an LB to DE is because of the consequential pay scale

[@bigwigg5562]

great content. TCU use to utilize split field coverage. The front 6 were separate from the back end. They had 3 calls, one for the front, one for the FS side and one call for the WS side of the field.

[@paulmancini-sb9qn]

Former Coach Herry Patterson’s Scheme there at TCU

[@Tmindful182]

You dont have to be a pro scout to see how old & slow the eagles defense was last year. Thank god theyre younger.

[@mtshark714]

Hey guys, I enjoy watching the show in segments. Keep up the good work. 👍

[@JAKIBSports]

Awesome, thanks for letting me know...i am going to keep pushing out segments from the shows for easy consumption for listeners. Full shows will obviously be available as well. Great segment here, right?

[@deeflow7348]

Good 👍🏽 glad they weren't charging to a 3/4

[@mjciavola]

Keep in mind that an edge rusher is sometimes like a linebacker in that some plays call for dropping back into pass coverage. That's why they are not pure defensive linemen.

[@paulmancini-sb9qn]

Per 2023 Stats, Eagles didn’t have much of a Pass Rusher

[@mjciavola]

@@paulmancini-sb9qn True.😆

[@michaelkerwin4755]

Whats up john great show..!!

[@frankpalancio8471]

Who's going to make a tackle on this defense? 😂

[@zacharybarter9361]

Im literally only referring to OLB as Edge players. Your gonna rush the passer or drop back from time to time

[@brandonhoward5559]

White, Dean, Trotter, Baun, Nolan Smith, and there's a few guys with names I can't remember. But I think they believe they have enough bodies to run a 3-4. I think the conversion to this formation is to disguise blitzes and disguise coverage. In theory, it's harder to tell who's rushing and who's dropping into coverage. It gives the QB more to analyze. It's hard to run if you don't have guys that can both rush the passer and drop into coverage at a high level. So it's harder to run. I think converting to a 3-4 is the right decision for the future of the franchise. It's the right time with Cox gone and Graham and Slay playing their final year before retiring. Sweat is likely playing his final year here. We got young DT's, young secondary, nothing stable at LB but youth and some potential. Couldn't be a better time to change philosophy on that side of the ball. If things show potential this year with Vic and this defense, I believe we will see a massive investment into LB next off-season. That's easily the weakest position and the future of the Edge rusher position. We are set up at every other position, and we're SB contenders. We pull off filling those needs, and we'll be complete

[@darrenedwards6705]

They need a BIGGER inside backer...Dean and trotter are outside linebacker...

[@mrkali3025]

Would like to know if Vic’s going to be up in the box or on sideline for games??

[@tmot6714]

We have the personal for a 3-4 Jordan Davis playing the 3-Tech Sweat,Nolan,And Huff all are better off ball.

[@Imhotep397]

Offenses exploit the major gap, in 1 1/2 gap scenarios with pulling guards or tackle and RBs. If Jordan Davis plays 3-i he’s not giving Centers or guards free rides all day, he’s getting sacks and not getting injured.

[@michaelkerwin4755]

John u were right about all the unknows last year an theres even more on defense this year

[@markmurphy3177]

Position matters in contract extensions. Some positions pay more and some less.

[@eagleotto2527]

Was going to disagree but I guess it does matter in cases of franchise tagging, which is kinda bogus

[@edwardking7239]

Position TITLES ARE IMPORTANT! You get paid according to your position title!! D.E. make more money than linebackers, facts...

[@danoelfke93]

You’re drunk

[@Steve-fh1ln]

DE's should never drop into coverage. That's where the problem is.

[@aqn1976]

I could not stand the Bend & Don't break philosophy the Eagles have adopted with Gannon & Desai and now they go ahead and hire the chief architect of this style defense so I feel like omg here we go watching this soft prevent style defense which I despise... I TRULY miss the aggressive defenses of JIm Johnson, Bud Carson, Buddy Ryan and to a lesser extent Jim Schwartz :-///

[@reefonbux9432]

Do lb get easier incentives to achieve than the traditional d ends? If a lb gets 5 sacks he hits an incentive faster than a d end who would need, say double digits.

[@reefonbux9432]

Will we see even some big dime with Dejean and Isaiah Rodgers on the field?

[@paulmancini-sb9qn]

I believe Nakobe Dean gets cut in August, He’s not good enough

[@JPDuval-xy4yy]

So basically, the eagles run a 4-3/nickel under

[@dariush.4241]

Lawrence Taylor rushed the QB in 3 4 difense. He was a OLB

[@marinasands4319]

Trotter and Dean are way too small to play inside LB

[@naughtyorgneiss]

It's a passing league, they'll be fine

[@frsh_cln]

Patrick Queen is around the same size as Trotter and Dean. Is Queen too small?

[@marinasands4319]

[@Imhotep397]

It’s been a 3-4 most of the time, stop lying to yourself…both of the “edges” are LBs and you have a Tackle playing 0 technique. Eliminate the 0 technique and play the front 4 in 3 technique with ends standing up or hand in the dirt and it’s just creates better spacing for a more effective pass rush which helps the whole defense. Saleh figured it out, hopefully Fangio does too.

[@subgenso6282]

Whatever the scheme the less LBs the better 😊

[@Lightnite12]

HEY!...U know what?... I forgot, I cannot stand Fangio's system!! Why? Bc a patient, accurate QB w. 1/2 decent pocket protection will pick us apart -A... B- short yardage bunching w. motion can confuse you EVERYTIME (see SB57 w. Reid scoring 2 Red Zone TDs) 14:27

[@derrickcarstarphen8595]

I'm with you Zander. It's obviously not confusing any offenses today

[@hassanedwards7481]

If u know football u know what reddick and huff is who cares what their “title” is

[@JAKIBSports]

It matters for contracts, franchise tags etc. other than that it does not matter, but the players care for that reason

[@Lightnite12]

Trot jr. Needs @ 30lbs on him.

[@alexsherel3344]

Fangio doesn’t have a ring? There’s players who never stepped on the field, never played a down…that DO have rings…EXPLAIN IT NOW
