Super Bowl LII: Eagles Vs. Patriots Super Bowl 52 Steht Vor Der Tür Super Bowl LII: Eagles vs. Patriots Super Bowl 52 steht vor der Tür. Eigentlich ist er kurz davor die Tür einzuschlagen. Heute spielen die Philadelphia Eagles gegen die New England Patriots. Der Showdown in Minnesota hat einen klaren Favoriten: die New England Patriots. Ich jedoch bin der Meinung, dass die Eagles durchaus eine gute Chance haben den Traum der Patriots zu zerstören. 1. Die Defensive Line der Eagles Alles beginnt in der Defense der Philadelphia Eagles. In der Defense der Eagles beginnt alles in der Defensive-Line. Und in der Defensive-Line beginnt alles bei DT Fletcher Cox. Wenn Fletcher Cox sein Spiel durchzieht hat die O-Line der Patriots ihre Hände voller Arbeit. Aus mehreren Gründen: die Stärke Tom Bradys und der Grund wieso er so wenig Sacks kassiert ist seine Pocket- Presence. Er ist, wie vielleicht der ein oder andere weiß, nicht der mobilste aller Quarterbacks. Was ihn jedoch auszeichnet ist seine Fähigkeit in die Pocket hineinzugehen („stepping up in the pocket“). Dadurch gibt er den DE der Gegner einen schwierigeren Winkel, weil sie so weiter um den O-Liner herumlaufen müssen. Hier sieht man das sehr gut. Der Grund warum das bei vielen Teams so gut geht ist, dass viele Teams sehr wenig Druck über dem Center produzieren können. Hier kommt Fletcher Cox ins Spiel. Wenn Tom Brady Druck von der Seite und von Vorne spürt hat er ein Problem, weil er dann Wege finden muss aus der Pocket hinauszulaufen und das könnte bei seinem Tempo Schwierigkeiten bereiten. 2. Keine Löcher in der Coverage Weil die Eagles mit ihren 4 Weltklasse D-Linern jede Menge Druck erzeugen können müssen sie weniger riskante Blitze callen als andere Teams, wenn sie Brady unter Druck setzen wollen. Was ist ein Blitz? Die Idee eines Blitzes ist, einen extra Verteidiger zu rushen, damit die O-Line der Gegner gar nicht alle Rusher blocken können. Was ergibt sich demnach aus einem Blitz? Ein Loch in der Passverteidigung. Und genau das macht Tom Brady so gut: er wirft immer in das Loch, welches vom Blitzer aufgerissen wird. Wenn man jedoch mit einem 4-Man-Pass-Rush Druck erzeugen kann, muss man solche Risiken seltener eingehen und dadurch geht Tom Brady eine wichtige Lücke verloren, die er gegen fast jedes andere Team gut ausnützen kann. Ich erinnere gerne an das Spiel gegen Jacksonville vor zwei Wochen: selbes Spiel. Gute D-Line, weswegen die Coverage sehr eng war. Es hat ihn bis zum Beginn des 4. Viertels gebraucht, um den Pass-Rush endlich zu verstehen. Jedoch prophezeie ich, dass er den Pass-Rush der Eagles nicht verstehen wird, weil die D-Line der Eagles noch eine Klasse besser ist als die der Jacksonville Jaguars. 3. Nick Foles: Der beste Ersatz der Liga? Ich habe gerade neben mir eine Statistik der NFL liegen. Es ist nicht wirklich eine Statistik aber ihr wisst hoffentlich was ich meine. „Nick Foles hatte seine beste Saison im Jahre 2013“. Was will ich damit sagen? Im Jahr 2013 war er der Backup-QB hinter Michael Vick. Dieser hatte sich zu Beginn der Saison verletzt. Dann kam Nick Foles auf den Plan. Er spielte die Saison seines Lebens. 64,0% Completions, 2 891 Yards, 27 TDs, 2 INTs und 57 Rushes für 221 Yards und drei Touchdowns. Kurz gesagt: Wenn er die gesamte Saison gespielt hätte, hätte er durchaus MVP-Statistiken gehabt. Das alles nachdem er für den großartigen Michael Vick eingesprungen war. Genauso wie er für den großartigen Carson Wentz einsprang dieses Jahr. Außerdem können sie den Ball mit LeGarrette Blount laufen und somit haben sie die Uhr gut im Griff. Außerdem ist Nick Foles während den gesamten Playoffs noch ohne Interception. Wenn Nick Foles es schafft keinen Fehler zu machen und die D-Line der Eagls Druck erzeugen kann, sehe ich schwarz für die New England Patriots. Was ist eure Meinung? Und schreibt mir eure SB-Predictions in die Kommentare. Danke das ihr mir Zeit eures Tages gewidmet habt! .

  • Josh Mcdaniels Fiasco, Anthem Protests Are Examples Why the NFL Misses Pat Bowlen Right Now by Paul Klee Colorado Springs Gazette Feb
    Josh McDaniels fiasco, anthem protests are examples why the NFL misses Pat Bowlen right now By Paul Klee Colorado Springs Gazette Feb. 11, 2018 Robert Kraft is the real villain in the Josh McDaniels-Colts fiasco. With great power comes great responsibility, and no owner uses his for self-serving interests more frequently than the Patriots’. Some of the NFL’s most prominent issues — national anthem protests, distrust between players and owners, the fallout from continued and necessary CTE studies, all that — are a direct result of the league’s knee-jerk reaction to almost anything that threatens to tarnish the shield. I call it the CYA plan. Instead of working together to advance the greater good with a sensible solution, the men in charge seek to cover their own backside. The anthem protests are the perfect example. The NBA quickly and successfully identified a solution in the form of a blanket decree that all teams must stand for the anthem. And when’s the last time you read a report on anthem issues in the NBA? There haven’t been any. There’s been zero blowback from a league roster that’s 70 percent black. The NBA’s all good. This isn’t hard. Meantime, the wishy-washy NFL tried to appease this group ... and that group ... and that other group ... and the end result has been distrust from players and alienating a sizable chunk of its fandom. Nobody follows the CYA plan — ignoring what’s best for the league in order to help itself — better than Kraft. That brings us to McDaniels, who reneged on a promise to join the Colts as coach.
