If they have problems getting Ito the QB they should drop 8 and rush 3 on occasion without tipping it. They tried some zone blitzes Sunday and it helped. It's not just the dbs all of the time. The LBs have to help out too. I'm going to rewatch the game this afternoon and see what I can pick up, especially on defense. It's pretty hard to see what the dbs are doing on a tv but maybe Fran Duffy has some all 22 film on it.

My take:
1. Adams: give him the ball and let's see what happens. 18-20 carries. Mix in Smallwood and Clement.
2. Smallwood is atrocious in pass pro.
3. Wentz good game. INT was force. Checkdowns are okay sometimes.
4. Good job by makeshift O line. Tough defense to play against with Campbell and company.
5. Defense please please knock a guy off his route for once. These underneath crossers are just killing you.
6. Red zone playcalling still leaves a lot to be desired.
7. I think both Doug and Schwartz are trying to cover for the injuries.
8. Losing Lane will hurt.
9. Howie get on the phone please
10. NFC East is bad but can be had. Rams actually showed vulnerability Sunday. Packers are dangerous and Saints are quieting making a play for best in NFC. Gonna be a dogfight in NFC.

While GB is looking dangerous, they have to go on the road 3 of the next 4 weeks to New England, Seattle and Minnesota. It's going to be tough for them. We have to hope the NFC North keeps beating each other up and we win the division and somehow slide into the #3 seed.

The biggest issues with the RB are not their ability to run the ball right now. Its there blitz pickup is really not good. Smallwood has not gotten much better at it, Adams is a rookie and learning. CLement is probably the best at it of the healthy backs but he still is not real good. Sproles, on the other hand, is good at picking up the blitz.Were from Philly F in Philly no one likes us we DON'T CARE!

Where the heck is Sproles ? He had a "slight" hamstring issue over a month ago.
Update: Little info on him right now other than Doug saying he is "close" two weeks ago. Hopefully he is back after the bye for Dallas. We need him.
