Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 11h

If you're just talking about pure entertainment factor, #Miami EDGE Akheem Mesidor is one of the most enjoyable watches in this #NFLDraft class

Violent, versatile, technically-refined rusher with a really high floor. Fun, fun study. He's ready-made.

#ItsAllAboutTheU

Love the #Eagles toying w/ #Giants protection

Per NextGenStats, Dart’s ‘Average Time To Sack’ was 6.07 secs (13th-longest of any QB this yr), but ‘Average Time to Pressure’ was 2.95

Philly nearly doubled their zone coverage% in rematch, holding Dart to 9 yds on 2 scrambles

Balance of rush/contain

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Dart took some violent hits in this game again

Couple of collisions on this one, the first of five sacks in the game for the #Eagles

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Getting into the schematics of this play on the show at 2:00 - but love the effort here late from #97 Moro Ojomo on the sack

Against a wriggly QB like Dart, a lot of sacks come from the second and third waves - the rush doesn't stop!

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Classic rookie sack for Dart here on first play of 3Q

I think no one running with motion man in Empty gave him idea of zone coverage; got man instead - but by the time he realized what he had, it was too late

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

#Giants running a nifty Tackle Trap RPO, but a nickel blitz from Fangio thwarts it. Good second effort by Jordan Davis to get home for a sack on the scramble.

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Gotta love this second, third and fourth effort from Tank Bigsby

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Nice pre-snap read here from Jalen Hurts

'Capped' corner gives him a good idea of blitz - changes protection that way

Calm and collected and hits backside dig on vertical route concept

This is not a play he would make vs the blitz two years ago #Eagles

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Underrated aspect of this successful screen: Brett Toth's angle to block the safety attacking from depth

Would be VERY easy for Toth's eyes to get big here and make a bee line for him, but he stays flat and parallel to the LOS. Meets him where he's going to be; springs Saquon

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Two plays later - Duo again from another heavy set.

This time it's 13 personnel with a 6th OL on the field (Barkley run out of 12p)

Tank Bigsby reads the LB and bounces; runs to daylight for 18 yards #Eagles

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 1d

Under center 'Duo' from #Eagles in a jumbo (6 OL) set - 65 yards to the house

Good movement from backside double team (Landon Dickerson gets a piece of 3 guys)

Saquon Barkley completely erases the angle Tyler Nubin thinks he has filling the backside

Will a tight end score a touchdown for me on National Tight Ends Day?

Swooper! @fduffy.bsky.social is back in the hunt while @ej-smith.bsky.social spends big to try and regain a solo lead over @bowulf.bsky.social on Kelly Green week.

My favorite player comps so far are "Physical Travis Etienne," "Faster Tim Tebow," and "Less Aware Brock Purdy."

Should Brandon Graham’s return change Howie Roseman’s trade-deadline approach?

Per NextGenStats:

In the last four seasons ('22-'25), Jalen Hurts has had 26 games where he had a positive EPA/DB on scrambles

Sunday was the only time he did that without running on one of those scrambles

Fran Duffy @fduffy.bsky.social · 8d

What can under center play-action do for you?

Turns out ... a lot!

Lot of room in the middle of the field for DeVonta Smith to work here on a pair of second half completions

Broke these down and more on today's show www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoxJ...
