Offence the Eagle had exploded. Now, they needed grind.
With 4 minutes and 22 seconds left in the game the Sunday night sitting on three points ahead Eagles and wanted to kill the clock. On the drive that they used the same schema of locking six consecutive times to collect first four downs and prevent the cowboys to return the ball.
The drive was an impressive display of blocking and running, pass protection Eagle remains a problem that may affect their aspirations.
After reviewing the video, here are the moments where the Eagle blockers shined and others when they are not enough:
After a passage to begin their final drive, the Eagles have begun their sequence muscular running with 3: 36 left in the game. They faced a 4 second to their own line of 16 yards.
Updated eagles on foot the Brent Celek tight ends and ceramic Harbor on the left side of their offensive line. The snap Celek and receiver Jason Avant took on the linebacker on the left. Tackle Jason Peters also blocked the defensive end of the left side. Nose - gear Jay Ratliff - drove right by Centre Mike McGlynn and guard Todd Herremans, opening a hole.
LeSean McCoy accused by the opening of 12 metres and a first down.
Harbor moved from left to right to block a linebacker on the other side of the coin.
Next five coins, Eagles used the same training as the port and Celek on the right side of the offence. On the first and 10, Peters and Herremans pushed to the left of the Eagle both inside defensive end, while Harbor came from right to left for seal linebacker DeMarcus Ware out once more to create a fold for McCoy.
McCoy made a third brand first right drop-down run on the next game with blocks of same, but this time it was cut to the right.
Jerome Harrison in law, and then Michael Vick, obtained using the same schema, false to himself and McCoy ran for nine.
The ensuing third-and-1, necessary Dallas a judgment to have any chance to tie the game. Once again, Peters and Shinglers blocked Herremans cowboy from left to right - towards the Interior of the field - leaving only Ware outside to stop on the left. Harbor was known from right to left and blocked Ware. McCoy shot by the gap for six yards. End of the game.
"The room that we were, I've just knew everything they could adapt to have to stop and just make great readings [McCoy] now and striking it is hard," Herremans said after the game. "They knew that we were running the ball and we were able to keep gaining yards and those early stockings were enormous."
Authorized Eagles pressure on Vick in various ways: strange blocking assignments, confusion caused by Dallas and individual match simply lose ups.
On a first down in the second quarter, the Eagles had seven blockers against five passes caused. But on deployment, aft Owen Schmitt has been assigned to block Ware, a star to rush the passage on the other side of the coin. This is a bad clash reminiscent of a game against the bears on which peppers Julius has been released. Easily rushed Ware low Schmitt and hammered Vick by behind.
Another room, the Eagles had seven blockers against six caused. But with the two ends of tight on Ware, it easily beat Vick forced pressure.
The Cowboys fooled the offensive line on a third quarter third down. Wingman defensive Jason Hatcher aligned King Dunlap gear but attacked inside. Dunlap and guard Max Jean-Gilles block Hatcher, allowing the cornerback Orlando Scandrick come from intact externally and to force Vick in an incomplete pass.
The first drive of the Eagle, DeMarcus Ware beat Jason Peters inwards to force Vick to abandon a collar and scramble. Anthony Spencer used the same gesture against Peters in the second quarter to pressure Vick interception.
Same Herremans, who had a solid game, has suffered. Ratliff worked simply by guard a bag of third quarter.
Running the Eagle was promising Sunday. Their protection, with games against the Giants and the remaining cowboy is still worrying.
