Spy Hurts

Give Bush something to do.

Can’t let Hurts run for 70 yards.

When he gets running that gets their Offense going.
Then their run game can hit 200 yards rushing easy.
Their Offensive Line can manhandle the Steelers Run Defense.

I really think Steelers can limit their Pass game believe it or not.

Steelers pass Defense, even without Watt, is going to be very strong this season. When he comes back, look out!
I know there’s some wide open catches, but the other times the coverage may be the best I’ve seen from them in years.


Steelers Offense this week, oh my it may not be good.
Eagles Defensive Line may have a sack fest.
Unless you copy the Dolphins and Pickett gets rid of the ball fast.

I changed my mind on the blowout and now think eagles finish strong after a scary start.
Probably kicking a FG to win it.


Also remember, across the street the World Series is about to be played so the eagles crowd will be drunk and wild.

 

Not a bad idea. He can hurt you with his legs.

 

If we have Bush spying Hurts, this is what we will see all day 55...........1 That will be the back of Bush's jersey chasing the back of Hurt's jersey.

 

Tomlin was asked at the Tuesday presser about Bush. Said his play is returning to pre injury level. Maybe he needs prescription aviators.
He has made some plays I would agree but far away from being solid. Guess Ol Popcorn has to drive up the positive on the 1st round trade up to 10 selection that was a mistake.

If Hurts gets into the open field Bush ain't catching him. The contain starts with the front 7 not letting him break out. A tall task.

 

The only player athletic enough to keep up with him is Fitzpatrick, and they can't tie him up like that. Maybe they could do it with Maulet when he is out there. It's not like he's helping all that much in coverage.

 

Stay in Zone coverage, and stay out of Man.
A running Qbs favorite thing to see is everyone in man with their back to Him.
Like last week....some were complaining about being in Zone....LoL...and We were running man with very little Zone concepts....then....We changed, and went to faking man, and ran more Zone concepts, and it shut Miami down.
You don't need a spy if You run zone....only if You run man most of the time. Unless all the zones are deep .
Also OLBs don't over rush past the Qb....please.

 

Do we play him like we play Jackson? We’ve always defended LJ well

 

They can do something similar, though Hurts isn't as limited throwing to the sideline as Jackson.

 

What a difference a year makes. After the Eagles playoff loss many including myself were saying that Hurts was just simply not capable of being an NFL QB. Now he is the leading candidate for league MVP.

 

Have You seen the Qbs they have ,and will face???
I know they can't do anything about that, but if people look, and also think our 11-0 record was smoke, and mirrors....then that is exactly what Philadelphia is.
Best Qb they've played so far.....Kirk Cousins, and Dak coming off a injury....
Best Qb they will play from now on is....who????

 

Yeah, but we always had Watt, Tuitt, or Dupree.

 

Nazareth in my head.

I don't see any reason why we shouldn't win.

KENNY PICKETT!!

 

Philly is pretty well stocked on both sides of ball. Lets hope
Steelers can create points off turnovers and or someone breaks out on
Offense. Go Steelers!

 

I do so hope that is true.

Hurts may have a big game, but I'm a lot more worried about the Eagles' defense and running game.

 

You know, speaking of Devin Bush... give credit where credit is due.
Bush has put together a couple really nice games..
He had some good plays, in particular was this one on Tyeek Hill.
Tua saw the LB coverage mismatch and thought he would just go there... Bush shut it down.


Very nice coverage.

 

As soon as I saw the title of the thread the Nazareth song came to mind. I actually saw Nazareth along with Thin Lizzy in 1976 at the old Stanley Theater in Pittsburgh.

 

Sounds like a great concert. I dig both those bands.....especially Thin Lizzy.

 

Yeah those were the good old days. I've always liked all kinds of music and have seen groups as diverse as the Turtles, Foghat, Tommy James, Frank Sinatra, Jefferson Airplane, Donna Summer and Heart on their first national tour in 1977 and a lot more that I can't recall off hand.
