“In the end, it’s not my decision,” he remarked. “I’ll just follow instructions and remain prepared,”

‘They know what I can do:’ Devin White surprised to lose starting spot – NBCSP
Devin White said all the right things Thursday, but it was definitely a blow to the 26-year-old White. “At the end of the day, it’s not my call,” he said.

“I’ll just do what’s asked of me and just stay ready. Whether I go out there the last two minutes of the game or the first play of the game, I’ve just got to be ready and just be able to give this team all I have. “Because that’s what I came here to do. Just rewrite my story for my career. However that plays out, I don’t control that. I just leave that in God’s hand and I stay ready. I don’t cry, don’t mope around. I just come to work and be a pro about everything.

” White said during the summer that getting benched in Tampa was humbling. He was asked if this was also humbling but he said it’s different because he said he was selfish the way he handled things in Tampa but feels like he did everything he could at training camp this summer and through the offseason to show what kind of player he is.

Eagles Film Room: Concept of the Week – Double Post Wheel – BGN
If you watch Saquon Barkley’s route, he actually runs through the B-gap rather than outside the offensive line. In some ways, it reminds me of a TE Leak route where a TE sneaks out behind the offensive line. One of the biggest trends on film this week was teams getting their playmakers vertically quickly through. Here are some other examples, courtesy of the wonderful Ollie Connolly.

It’s not bad when you run the same things as Sean McVay, Kyle Shanahan, and Ben Johnson. That’s some good company! Isn’t it nice to have a modern offensive coach?

Eagles film review: DeVonta Smith, Milton Williams, Moro Ojomo, and Johnny Wilson – PhillyVoice
DeVonta Smith’s fourth down conversion in the first half. During the summer it was clear that DeVonta Smith was going to play more in the slot than he typically has. He made a bunch of clutch catches, most notably on the Eagles’ final drive of the game. So to be clear, his night wasn’t “unheralded.

” But he also made a big play on a 4th and 3 in the second quarter that Kellen Moore singled out during his Tuesday presser. “He’s got great spatial awareness, great feel for the game,” Kellen Moore said, when asked on Tuesday what skills he saw in Smith to play in the slot. “I think when you play inside as a receiver, there’s a lot more variables. There’s a nickel on top of you, but there’s a safety, there’s backers.

You’ve got to have the awareness to kind of see — have great spatial awareness to recognize all those aspects and see how those moving pieces change the picture for you. So I think he did an excellent job finding space in the zone a couple times.

He had the critical 4th-and- 3, big time play where he saw one defender outside of him and one defender inside of him, he tight turned it, hooked it up, Jalen saw him. Those are big time plays. Those aren’t easy to see that spatially in that quick instance.”

NFL Week 2 Preview: Schedule, storylines and matchups to watch – PFF
Matchups to Watch: Falcons HB Bijan Robinson vs. Eagles LB Nakobe Dean. The glaring disproportionate usage stats made the rounds following this game, detailing the Falcons’ tells and trends in the run game.

This offense can’t function as a one-dimensional unit that tips its running downs to defenses solely based on alignment. So expect Atlanta to adjust that approach and get their talented back, Bijan Robinson, his totes on the ground in a variety of looks.

That will prove to be a sizable challenge for the Eagles young linebacker, who is coming off a rough outing in Week 1 in which he earned a 29.3 PFF overall defensive grade. That won’t cut it against a talented back like Robinson.
