New, from me: I wrote about three schematic shifts on the offensive and defensive side of the ball that have been prevalent through the first quarter of the season www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/sch...
Back to the future: Schematic shifts defining first quarter of 2025 NFL season reminiscent of early 2000s
What scheme changes are helping teams win in 2025?

Jalon Walker gets credited with the pressure here that forces the INT, but look at Zach Harrison get upfield on Torrence, forcing Allen to step up into Walker

The Falcons defense is...fun? It's fun!

Look at Jalon Walker set the edge on this play and help string this one out. Nice run through by Deablo to force Cook to keep running to the outside

The EZ angle on this pass is sick as hell

Real nifty blitz by Atlanta on this 3rd down. Line up all the big guys to the right opposite Leonard Floyd, but on the snap they bring Jessie Bates and drop Jalon Walker. Walker does a good job cutting off this crosser too

Spencer Brown deuce block from hell

Going down with the ship, I respect it

The best football edit I’ve seen this year

Nick Herbig against an interior offensive lineman in any obvious passing scenario is an instant loss for the offense. Dude is a monster

Nice backside cutoff by Elijah Wilkinson and Lindstrom climbs to the second level to give Bijan his choice of 2 gaps to run through

Greg Rousseau has really grown as a pass rusher. Nice long arm to get a pressure, but also controls the outside hand of the tackle to make sure he can't recover

Motion bumps S Cole Bishop into the box, but also bumps LB Terrell Bernard out of the box. Falcons run at the safety who can't get off his block. Feels like a broken record talking about the Bills' defense

Look at Drake London pin this LB inside on this Bijan run! Matthew Bergeron getting out on the move too!

I love how the Falcons used Bijan as a threat in the play action game vs Buffalo. Woerner in the backfield helps to shore up pass pro and Penix Jr finds London in the void

It’s 3rd and 5, and the throw to BTJ is open. He’s just gotta catch the ball

On today’s episode of Pushing the Pile, I wanted to shoutout Colts WR Ashton Dulin, who might be next in the era of two way players in the NFL

This time they're in 11 personnel, run fake with an insert by Barner pulls everyone out the window to Kupp and this is easy money

Sick Travis Hunter PBU on a diabolical post-snap C3 rotation by the Jags

The JSN TD was a nice playcall and a bonkers throw by Sam Darnold. Quarters coverage, and Andrew Wingard gets caught flat footed. Wingard is reading the movement of Arroyo (#18), and it allows JSN access to this big post

Despite having the 31st ranked run game by EPA per play, the Seahawks are still able to access play action and be explosive with it. Klint Kubiak has SEA in 12 personnel, JAX matches with base, linebackers don't get enough depth on this JSN over route
