Yes, I had a brief for the IR today on him starting, but it landed on the cutting room floor. First time I’ve ever had to cut a Bobcat story. Good cause though. It made room for the local sports weekly schedule, which if I had left it out would’ve been my job. Will request it gets run for tomorrow.
Don't the eagles play a base defense that only has 2 LB's on the field with an extra safety? Don't think they actually start a SAM LB.TomCat88 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 08, 2020 5:46 amYes, I had a brief for the IR today on him starting, but it landed on the cutting room floor.

Yes and no. They play a 4-3 base, but they spend 75% of their snaps in dime or nickel. The thing they do a little differently than a lot of teams though is utilize a 3rd safety in those sets. Nathan Gerry, their starting Will is a converted safety. He is definitely smaller for a NFL LB. I expect Alex will still see the field a lot though. And in single backer sets Gerry can slide to safety with Alex playing LB.SACCAT wrote: ↑Tue Sep 08, 2020 10:53 amDon't the eagles play a base defense that only has 2 LB's on the field with an extra safety?
