The Linc - Eagles Secondary Not Good Under Johnnie Lynn
Bill Lyon: A tale of two coaches: Bradley and Castillo | Philadelphia Inquirer | 01/08/2012
What we have here are two men who share a common bond. They are the good soldiers, loyal almost to a fault, in it to the end because it is part of their nature.
The Eagles' secondary under Lynn | Philly | 01/08/2012
It's tough to find an area in which the Eagles' pass defense improved this season. Most of the numbers are similar to 2010. Last year, the defense gave up 54 big pass plays (20 yards or more). This year, it gave up 53.

Secondary was out of sync last season.....
We need the secondary to utilize their speed coming from whichever side of the field they’re covering and follow the ball as soon as it leaves opposing QB’s, whether it’s a pass, a handoff or QB sneak. Majority of the time,most remains on their side of the field when they should be near or around the ball towards the other side of the field or the middle. Miss tackles were huge in that a lot of times causes our players to clash into each other, in a failed attempt to make some big plays. Remember, most of our secondary were riddles with injuries and that causes some difficult mobility to the full extent of play-making. It took long enough for coaches to finally work around those playing injured. A lot of decisions isn’t always the right choices, anyone who puts themselves into the coaches position would learn to make corrections. And a lot of the solutions isn’t easy to find, but keep finding solution upon solution to make it work. All of the coaches did their best with their decisions they have made and continue to do so.

To say the least....
The fault could be on the coaches, it’s the players who are the ones to make personal decisions when on the field as the plays happens. Maybe….the last 4 games is any indication, with those still playing injured.

Part of it was the scheme & trying to use players in roles/ways they weren’t accustomed to especially DRC whose efforts at times this season “were found wanting” to say the least.
Still, that is a bit of a cop out especially regarding Nnamdi who got beat several times this year in man in the red zone for a TD. If they trade Samuel which pretty much seems like a foregone conclusion, they almost have to draft another CB to play the dime on the outside since Marsh showed so little & Hughes is more of just a filler/depth guy.
Hope….everyone is healthy to the start of this coming season. As I notice last year we draft some guys who were already injured by the time the season started. Not to mention, barely no time during training camp to work out the injuries. Now, we have the talents on both sides of the LOS, plus a full training camp to smooth out a few wrinkles.

To be fair
There are a lot of draft picks that never pan out in the league. Giving up 5 picks for 1 is pretty crazy, especially considering they were 2 1sts 2 2nds and a 4th. But Julio is an incredible athlete with a bright future and would have been a strong OROY candidate had it not been for Cam’s record setting year. However, the compensation was way too much and the Falcons paid and will pay dearly for it.
still not as bad as the Carson Palmer trade
bet Oakland is kicking themselves right now…
Yes, I am a Giants fan. Now that we got that out of the way....
IMPEACH DOLAN!!!!
The Big Boy Cometh....Team Jacobs
Marines say Oorah; BBVer's say SUAMBP! say it with me - Suuaahmbp!!!!
The Giants win says more about the Falcons than it does about them. I mean, they finished the season 3-5.
Eagles: Season, but they'll be back with a vengeance next year. #KeepAndyReid
Flyers: On a nice roll
Phillies: Looking to next year
but we also won 3 out of our last 4
and 2 in a row, so we built a little momentum heading into the postseason.

Reid's arrogance is more than protecting players
whatever!
reid wins games. he is a winning coach.
losing coaches are worse than winning coaches. losing coaches are more common than winning coaches.
reid had a bad year. it happens.
still wasn’t a losing season.
5-1 in the division.
finished with four consecutive wins.
give the guy a break.

So true....
It could’ve been worse, being 2nd in the NFC EAST is second to non. And being the only team in the NFL top 10 in both Offense and Defense, that doesn’t sound like a bad season at all. Of course, alot of the mistakes with the turnover ratio needs to break down with quick decisions in the spur of the moment.

"Don't let good enough be good enough"
Is Reid the perfect coach? No. Is there a better coach out there right now? In my opinion, no. Reid is the best chance we got to win this thing next year and I believe that he can take us there. But at the same time we can’t be complacent with just “good enough.” I’m giving Reid next year to show us what he’s got, but if we don’t get off to a good start, Lurie and Banner need to start looking at replacements pronto.
One where there is a candidate that may be ingenious on both side of the LOS. Going to have to look hard for such replacement. I hope it doesn’t have to come down to that, but if it means we going to make that happen, it also means a year or 2 under a new HC. At least whoever does take over, knows he doesn’t have to rebuild the team, hope he doesn’t blow it when changes are implemented.

what a lame scapegoat
Prediction: the 3-4 will be out of style in two years.
So no, I will not shut up about stupidity.
