The Philadelphia Eagles nightmarish defense has arguably the best pass rush of all time. They are just 5 sacks away from breaking the all time single-season record, and they have their eyes trained on one last goal. They have elite talent up front, but also use a variety of alignments, concepts, and gameplans to wreak havoc on opposing offenses, and now they have just one more game to prove if they are indeed legendary. This week’s episode uses the all-22 coaches film to analyze the Philadelphia Eagles defense.

I called it. Eagles got exposed. a great defesive line proping up a suspect LB and secodnary core. KC was toying with them. ring arounnd the Rosie and wide open in the flats. They want to cry about a ticky tack flag when KC chose not to walk in while getting COOKED.
“Swallowed up by… Fletcher” had me dying 😂
hes got a nice subtle sense of humor while still being professional lol.. i love it..
Yankee you an eagles fan lol
OMG ITS MY FAVORITE DAILY FOOTBALL FUSION TH-camR
Hi @@Broon1 👋🏻
😂😂😂
5:21 That Kenny Pickett sack was brutal.
Some great script writing on this video. Vanilla Vick, Washington Whatevers, Pirate stunt then young buc. Hopefully next video will be on "How the Eagles won the Super Bowl"
😢😢
Or how the Eagles defense were held sackless
Absolutely was looking forward to one of your video on both eagles and chiefs. Always appreciate how you break down each teama strengths and weakness.
Nice way to learn about the d-line positions and fronts. But I think when you were talking about "historic offenses" being hurt by pass rush in the SB, should have included BG's strip sack on Brady :)
Well the 2017 Patriots offense wasn’t “historic” - the 07 Patriots being ruined by Big Blue is a better example
@@kitkat6782 Maybe not during the season but they are for their performance in that game. Neither team punted? Only turnover/stop was that play
Another excellent and insightful breakdown, Sir Alex! I love the Eagles' physicality on both sides of the ball. I don't know if Coach Reid can scheme a way out of that defense with his less-than-spectacular offensive line, especially with Mahomes suffering the high ankle sprain just 3 weeks ago. Those don't heal like other sprains, especially if you keep playing on it like he has been. But if anyone can possibly overcome it, Reid and Mahomes can. Maybe. This is a fascinating match up!
😂😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Well this aged like milk
Another banger, my friend! I feel ready for the game today! Eagles D is looking menacing!
🧢
not a fan of either team but the line is the most important thing in football and the Eagles have the best O and D line in the NFL.. Eagles win by 10
You're right! Unless they can't contain a less than 100% Mahomes. Have they played a mobile QB like that this year and how did they do? (I haven't followed them this season.)
Stick to your day job. Calling games isn't your thing.
I remember many moons ago John Madden said on air, football is a simple game, who ever dominates the line of scrimmage wins. Still as true today!
Another great video but I have to admit I laughed at "hyper-focused on Cox" and "Uses his drag hand to feel if Cox is coming."
If we only had Jim Schwartz back for the SB...Gannon decided that after the fourth wide open guy after motion, not to change a damn thing.
"he's using his drag hand to feel if Cox is coming"
💥💥Well this video didn't age well the Eagles defense didn't get not a single sack, it's easy to negate a pass-rush with quick routes and getting the ball out quickly.
Let’s talk about how Hassan Reddick has 19 sacks this season in total including ‼️while my Chicago Bears had 16.5 if u don’t include Robert Quinn 1 sack and Roquan Smith 2.5 this season who was both traded before Halloween💯Da fact that Justin Fields single handled kept us in that football is truly remarkable to me 💯
My condolences, at least you have 1st pick
Fields td run was unbelievable. Hassan had him and Justin kept going and made a mess of my eagles defense. Unreal talent. Yes I said my defense, I'm owner and coach. Go eagles
Fields will wear out like an RB if he's forced to play like one _and_ also be QB all game. He's *already showing* signs of wear.
I'd suggest that the Bears should trade that #1 pick for several picks &... the problem is that the Bears simply draft terribly, every year. Some teams are just like that. The Broncos for instance seem to do extremely well at that, trades & free agent signings - until this past year, despite having incompetent people throughout the organization.
It's hard to tell if it's a luck thing. Anyhow, there's little point _having_ a Justin Fields on a team that can't carry even _some_ of the load. They're not likely to trade _him,_ but it's also highly unlikely that they can draft an *entire o-line,* an RB & a receiver of any quality with just one pick.
Maybe Lovie Smith can help them again ...? 🤭 Seriously, _that man_ has *some* luck.
With the right GM, Fields could emulate hurts. I gotta lot of belief in him.
As an Eagles fan Justin Fields is fucking amazing. Watching how good he was in that game gave me a newfound respect for him. If you guys can build around him then you might be heading to the SB within the next few years.
It's so fun thinking about Hargrave on the 49ers alongside Bosa and Armstead next year...and beyond. 😁
This guy at work said the Eagles pass D was middle of the pack. I was confused as fuck when he said that lol
Well this aged like milk
😂🤣😭
Been enjoying these every week, great season! Enjoy the SB!
Never heard “Vanilla Vick” used to describe Jones yet😂
No IG huh?
I’m a Giants fan, and it’s GREATLY EXAGGERATED😂 But they definitely call him that
badd ass breakdown...thank you !!
Great concise breakdown!
Good job!
Finally someone is giving Philly’s defense the credit it deserves. It a absolutely baffles me that the 49ers say they were gonna “expose” our defense when literally we have a Safety with the most interceptions in the league CJ Gardner-Johnson and a secondary that averages under a 50.0 QB Passer rating when targeted (Slay & Bradberry) Not to mention how this team has had the third most sacks of all time in a single season. Sacked a QB 5x in 8 games. 4 players with 10+ Sacks, and Haason Reddick who was snubbed from being a defensive player of the year candidate with 16 sacks and 5 forced fumbles. But the Niners & Dallas defenses were better right? GTFOH…Philly by 13
Eagles 🦅 38 - Chiefs 17. Book it. 🤷🏻♂️👍🏻
Fly eagles fly 🦅
Facts and they say we haven't played any top QBs. We'll our QB is top 3 and we play against him every damn week in practice.
Defense can make all the stops it wants, but if Hurts isn't healed, then KC will tear him apart in a way that San-Fran failed to. He floated all his passes in week 18 _(WHY_ tf did they leave him *in* that game?) & in the conference game against San-Fran.
KC's greatest weakness is against the pass, but if Hurts can't throw, then this game might be a lot closer than people think.
@choosecarefully408 Yeah KC which is a significantly worse defense than SF will tear Hurts apart. Aight man. Our Offense will dominate KCs. The Question of this game is our Defense. If we don't get home it'll be a Shootout. KC has 0% chance of stopping our offense. We stop ourselves only. And with Hurts, only 1 or time (Commanders, Colts) did the offense stop itself
Reddick is a pass rushing Outside linebacker
Every time you make a positive video they win their next game and when you make a negative one they lose their next one
After the Super Bowl are you gonna be doing any NFL Draft videos? If so what kinda videos would you do? Keep up the awesome videos! GO BIRDS.
Excellent Video! Thank you!! Philly Philly!!
Let’s Go!!!! 🦅 🦅 🦅 🦅 🦅 🏆
Great content Alex per usual 🫡
POV: You're watching this after the superbowl
78 Sacks, Only Behind the 85 Bears who had 80, and the 84 Bears who had 82. Eagles got this.
They really showed up for the Super Bowl… oh wait 💀😭
kc had the andy reid on the eagles defesne
Excellent video
Not tonight Alex 😅
So just add Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith
Hassan reddick really has been the best free agent signing of the year
Looks like they are playing 2 Man on the clip that was match coverage. Looks like they do alot of spot drop due to getting pressure from front 4
This aged so bad
Guess what? Andy Reid finally give the Eagles a Super Bowl win!
this aged well.
This didn’t age well, didn’t hear their name all night
Eagles defense are “drumroll please” Frauds!
You never want to get hyper focused on Cox...it never ends well.
😂😂 didn’t look like there was a need to hyper focus on any player that plays defense for the eagles. They all got dogwalked equally 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Mr.Hall3850 went right over your head
The only thing this defense is missing is the names Reggie, Jerome and bdawk. Only because they are legends. People were getting upset all year about stopping the run but this defense is focused on big plays. Bend don't break and tighten up. The pass rush is second to the bears only. It's an underrated defense in a historical view
I am a biased 49ers fan, but I feel that the Eagles have a loaded defensive line but an exploitable LB core and secondary.
Their #1 pass defense is because they have 9 players on that defensive line who could start anywhere in the NFL. Kyle Shanahan schemed up wide open targets for Brock and Josh. Brock went 2 for 2 for 9 and 10 yards and Aiyuk was open for a possible TD when he was hurt. Then when Josh Johnson came out, he was blind to the wide open targets the TV broadcast was showing. Andy Reed and Mahomes are going to *gut* that defense, especially with the improvements and maturity Mahomes has shown.
Yeah even a hobbled Mahomes is an order of magnitude better than Daniel Jones and Josh Johnson, needless to say
You're definitely salty af. Shut up already
@@drizzle27 - And that concludes our tutorial on how to get blocked.
Unalive yourself.
Eagles are rated number 1 in passing yards allowed, net yards per attempt, and average yards per attempt. Slay, Bradberry, and Maddox are highly rated in coverage, and CJGJ is tied for first in INTs despite missing 5 weeks. They’re no joke.
@@kman9884 - It is team defense. The Eagles secondary benefits from the defensive line far more than the other way around. The secondary doesn't have to cover for very long because of the pressure rather than the defensive line getting sacks/hits because of great coverage. When the Eagles faced competent offensive teams, they gave up a lot of points. We will see in an hour.
Dope video
This will be a great matchup to watch. The Chiefs' Guard-Center-Guard combo (Joe Thuney, Creed Humphrey and Trey Smith) is the best in the league. Orlando Brown and Andrew Wylie are solid at tackle. One Hundred percent the Eagle's success will be determined by weather they consistently win the outside matchups.
They were pure garbage in the Super Bowl.
Fly Eagles Fly Baby !
Lmao and right on cue they shit the bed.
Go Birds!
How did that "nightmare" do in the Super Bowl?
People been sleeping on this D all year
I’m still sleep ! eagles d is trash lmao
Swallowed up by.... fletcher
Bruh was crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣PAUSE!!🤣
Crazy how they had 0 sacks in the super bowl 😭😭
84 bears had fewer games. Records need to be by era, separated by number of games in a season, unless the record is made in a 14 or 16 game stretch, then it counts as in previous seasons.
85 but yeah
Nice defense you have there. It would be a shame if the Chiefs broke it.
THEY DID🤣🤣🤣
yeah man our defense was so off its game
I expect KC to attempt to establish the run after Mahomes gets hit a few times. I don't expect the short passing game to be effective against Philly's secondary.
I guess not
This did not age well after the Super Bowl. Go Chiefs!
I wish this nightmare showed up this past Sunday
We’re gonna win easy! 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
“They are coming. They are angry. Get your popcorn ready.” Let’s. Fucking. Go. GO BIRDS!!!!!!
Cry eagles Cry
As a 49ers fan don’t remind me😑
Rams own y’all
@@ggallintedtalk lmao as if
As an eagles fan!!!🥱😎!!!Remind Me!! 🤣🤣!!!
Just a reminder, The Eagles Defense Is Made Of Nightmares
@@ThirdRhombus978 lmao nfc championship
They got EXPOSED
Go birds 🦅
It was bienemy who discovered it, not reid. Source: one of the chiefs linebackers
% of throws Mahomes got out in under 2.5 seconds
Divisional Round v. Jags: 34% (season low)
Conf. Champ v. Bengals: 40% (second-lowest)
Super Bowl v. Eagles: 56% (sixth-highest)
The Chiefs had the quick game all night long.
Eagles still pressured Mahomes 37.5% of the time.
Mahomes held the ball for at least 2.3 seconds 19 times and was pressured on 58% of these plays.
Mahomes not taking a sack wasn't really a function of his OL holding better than expected.
So it was basically designed to counter their D line
@@lionelbulgin1739 yes those quick throws didn’t really have much to do with their o line blocking well
Vanilla vick slid in there so casually
Didnt age well haha
It is the "Washington Foreskins" from now on.
That Defense has the sort of depth that will have KC's O-line in tears by the 2nd quarter...
Yikes 😂
Just add Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith
Did he say “to feel is Cox is coming” 🤣 something Chris Collinsworth would say 🤣🤣 that and “swallowed up by Cox” dude is hella weird 😂
Perhaps the Eagles schedule was not as competitive, thus the defense was a bit overhyped.
Hate the Chiefs 👀
Yo! Shanahan wake up ! Did u miss this! U didn’t prepare at alllllll 😅😅😅
I love your film breakdown. I do think we need to remember that Dak and Daniel Jones aren't the greatest at presnap reads. For example, at 7:35 Dak is looking away from the pressure he is expecting to come. He should instead be looking at that pressure side because more than likely his receiver over there will be open. If the Eagles dial up a blitz like that against the Chiefs, Mahomes will feast on them. He is great at sensing that pressure, and he has players like Kelce who know how to sit down in the vacant hole the defender is leaving. Dak isn't the greatest at presnap reads or sensing pressure. That's a nightmare when you are facing a defensive scheme like the Eagles use.
Edit: Shortly after you show clips of Carr and whichever Commanders QB was in. They sat in the pocket way too long. If you do that against Mahomes, he will scramble. His receivers are also good at improvising on their routes to find the open spot. Those type of coverage sacks only work vs mediocre or worse QBs.
Edit: Last edit, but the Eagles haven't really had to face a good QB this year. Rodgers was still figuring stuff out with his young receivers, for example. Trevor Lawrence was still going through growing pains (literally after that Eagles game they lost like 5 or 6 straight). They haven't been tested at all. We also need to remember four of the top five defenses in terms of points allowed were in the AFC. The 49ers and Commanders were the only defenses they really faced. The Commanders won one of those games. The 49ers were playing without a QB really for most of the game. That means the Eagles offense was very fortunate offensively as well. If the 49ers don't lose Purdy, the Eagles may have to play from behind. That means they can't just keep trying out runs until they find one that works. That means they'd have to pass more, which Hurts accuracy was questionable that day. Not downplaying the Eagles by any means. They are a heck of a team. Just pointing out how rose tinted glasses make the Eagles seem more elite than they might really be.
VANILLA VICK
Goose egg
As a Ravens fan I loved Tyus Bowser and Hasson Reddick both years in the draft. Both were miss used at first as ILBs. Now both are 10+ sack guys and dominate with speed and power. Not sure what both my ravens and the cards were thinking but they are studs.
Tyus Bowser is on the Ravens, Bud. And he’s never come close to ten sacks. 🤷🏻♂️🙄🤦🏻♂️
Answer: Dual threat quarterback
They were massively overrated.
Gannon will have no answer for reids offense.
And then what happened? 😂
Did he just call Daniel Jones Vanilla Vick?
Because that’s freaking hilarious 😂
This video did not age well bruh!
Look at the teams the Eagles are playing. They haven't played ANYONE
Somehow the chiefs won
Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen” 1 john 5:21. We have to repent of our sins we have a short time here on this earth, God’s judgment is coming, “And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.” Revelation 20:12. Put your faith in Jesus and not in sports because sports can not save you, only the Son of God, Jesus Christ. “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32
Yeah here's the secret, play terrible teams all year and then get exposed in the super bowl.
Can Mahomes break the curse?....that no quarterback who has won the year's total passing record has ever won the Superbowl! If I'm correct. 🤔
We'll see.
And no MVP has won the Super Bowl this century.
It’s pat mahomes of course he can and he did 2x SB champ lmao
@@daddybars
Good for Pat!
God bless him.

Nah
0 sacks.
Everybody keeps saying “Mahomes This and Mahomes That.” People forget what happened two years ago. Bucs 31 - Chiefs 9. Mahomes wasn’t able to compensate for his injured offensive linemen. It’s gonna take A LOT more than Patrick Mahomes to win this game. 🤷🏻♂️🙄🤦🏻♂️
@@mitchellbassler8360 The entire O line was injured and Mahomes needed foot surgery.
The Bucs/Chiefs SB is completely irrelevant. A better example would be him hanging 41 on the 49ers this year or beating Jalen Hurts last year.
@@MacLethal - Awwwwww poor baby!!! Yet people were picking them to win anyway!!! Remember, Tom Brady played the entire season - including the playoffs - on a torn MCL. He didn’t whine or complain about it or use it as an excuse, so I don’t wanna hear about Mahomes’ “injury” or his offensive line!!! Just stop it!!! Everyone was hurt at that time of year including Brady!!! 🤷🏻♂️🙄🤦🏻♂️
@@MacLethal - In one breath you say, “The entire O-line was injured, and Mahomes needed foot surgery,” and then, in the next breath you literally say, “The Bucs/Chiefs SB is completely irrelevant.” SO WHICH IS IT??? INCONSISTENT MUCH??? 🤔🤷🏻♂️🙄🤦🏻♂️
@@johnbrowntheprophet of irrelevant to this matchup dumbass
@@tigerstone8385 - That’s not my point, dumbass. 🤬 I’m saying that it takes more than a quarterback to win a Super Bowl. 🤷🏻♂️🙄🤦🏻♂️
I think the Eagles will get pressure, but will they get sacks. Sacks are largely about the QB holding the ball, and Mahomes in the best in the NFL out avoiding sacks when pressured
Drew lock would like a word
Pressures are just as good if not better vs Mahomes. Watch Lou Anarumo's coach up the Bengals D in Chiefs matchups and he tries to get Mahomes to hold onto the ball longer by just trying to pressure with 3 or 4 up front. Especially if Mahomes can't try get the ball to his receivers on a small window. And he has to settle with a first down on his feet with a defender playing spy on him.
@@t4d0W The chiefs had been less successful against the Bengals then other teams but a lot of that has been fluky, like Kelce fumble in the regular season or all the receivers getting hurt the second game against Cincy (and Mahomes fumbling on a screen pass). Mahomes has the exact same EPA/Play vs top 10 defenses then his career EPA/Play. If the Eagles win this game it will be because of there offense, no on has had success against Mahomes(Tampa Super Bowl not withstanding, but me and you were playing tackle for the Chiefs)
@@jamesonevers3262 How do you Chiefs fans have so much confidence considering the fact they got blown out in their last SB because of a pass rush? One of the awful Chiefs tackles that played in SB 55 will be playing in this SB and, I'm definitely not him. You guys live in a fantasy world.
@@joemillz10 because even in that game, Mahomes still only got sacked 3 times, The problem in that game was more so no was receiving group let Mahomes down.
And that pass rush didn't sack mahomes once in the super bowl
Because the chiefs O-line played one of the best games ever. No D-Line was going to touch Mahomes that day.
Tomorrow, Andy Reid takes down the Biden-delphia Eagles! Yoo Hoo! Go Chiefs!
Good luck to the children playing football today. You gonna lose
Chiefs 27 Eagles 24
You weren't paying attention, were you?
@@methylphosphatePOETyes it was a who’s-who of mid quarterbacks. Mahomes was still only sacked twice with the worst line to play in a Super Bowl.
@@recycledone5941 It doesn't matter. We're about to take Mahomes' head off.
@@recycledone5941 Andrew Wiley vs Haason Reddick? You like that match-up🤣?
