Defensive game plan vs. Eagles· Page 2

They played to contain. If they blitz, they risk giving up the big play, which Philadelphia strives to do. If they play to contain, then they're forcing the Eagles to drive down the field. I thought it was a little passive for my liking. The Eagles adjusted in the second half, with the underneath routes over the middle, but they won. They knew Vick would have trouble beating them with his arm. He did. It never looked exactly like the Eagles were comfortable and play calling never looked like it was in rhythm. I trust Dom Capers more than I trust even my own instincts and he proved himself right again.

That's a really good take. My only big problem was with those stretches where the lack of blitz became too predictable. I thought they would slowly ramp up the pressure as the game went on, but I didn't see much change. Maybe it was just that the blitzes, for the most part, were not getting home. It was quite a match of wits between one of the game's best offensive minds and one of the game's best defensive minds. A well-played game in a lot of ways, as evidenced by the low number of penalties.

Bishop playing coverage in the last drive for the Birds.. deep coverage and bringing Jackson down may have saved the game for the Packers.. lots of open space ahead.

I thought the defense was going to choke on that last drive like they have in some many other games in the past couple of years. I was pleasantly surprised when they kept their composure and finished the job.

Well done fellas.

Do you realize that if the Packers beat the Falcons and the Seahawks beat the Bears, the Packers will play three teams with bird names on the way to the Super Bowl? And they lost to the Cardinals last year. Interesting. Well, maybe not....

TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Hope to see everyone in the Chat tonight!!! Go Pack Go!!!

TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Jeanty would be a great pick-up for the Bears. I see Warren mocked to them as well who I think would be a great selection.

Zero2Cool (3h) : GameDay Chat is open. Posting bits an tids in there.

Zero2Cool (3h) : Excellent Source: The Bears have a deal in place to move up to 5 if Jeanty is there.

Zero2Cool (3h) : Probably not until 10pm will be making pick

dfosterf (5h) : But it is still not tonight. Lol

dfosterf (6h) : It is the title of a you tube video.

dfosterf (6h) : I'm not assuming anything

beast (12h) : If they aren't doing it, then why are you assuming they know how to do it?

dfosterf (17h) : Mackelvie

dfosterf (17h) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (18h) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (22h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (23-Apr) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (23-Apr) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (23-Apr) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (23-Apr) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
