The tush push wasn’t banned this offseason, and it’s been a massive weapon for the Philadelphia Eagles, but reports and rumors are swirling that due to the Eagles have been false starting on the play, that now the league and officials will watch this play more closely than ever. Will this factor be in favor of the Los Angels Rams?
We’ll see how the play is run, how the Rams respond and how the play is officiated.
There is also the fact that the Eagles passing attack has not been at the top of its game, but that could change this weekend, have the Eagles been keeping some moves under wraps in preparation of this NFC game against the Rams?
It’s all food for thought, are the Rams actually playing the Eagles at the best time?
Please comment on whatever you want, I hope you have a great Saturday and prepare for another big day of football Sunday, the season is starting to heat up now.
Rams Chris Shula Shares Honest Thoughts on Eagles Offense (si.com)
“Yeah, that’s the dichotomy of it, right? They have great players all over,” stated Shula. “They have great receivers. They have a great tight end. You stop one guy and you put all your resources to Saquon and Jalen Hurts can beat you and hurt you. We’ve played him recently, obviously twice last year or the year before and he’s hurt us in the pass game and we know he is definitely capable of doing that. You have to divide your resources accordingly.”
Feature: How Byron Young has taken his game ‘to the next level’ both mentally and physically (therams.com)
“McVay said that Young “took his game to the next level,” both mentally and physically. That showed up on Sunday, as he led the team with two sacks and six pressures (via Pro Football Focus). After an offseason of pilates, detailed film work and asking pointed questions, Young sees that growth in himself as well.
When outside linebacker Michael Hoecht left in free agency this past offseason, Young knew he had to step up. He’s now “the veteran in the group,” said defensive coordinator Chris Shula, which is unusual for a third-year player in the NFL, but Young has leaned into that responsibility by intensifying his process. Although he’s no longer in the building, Hoecht set an expectation of excellence with his work that Young has strived to meet.“
Rams defense is doing something only 2 other teams in NFL are this season (ramswire)
“This means that the Rams don’t have to send more defenders than opposing offensive linemen to generate pressure, meaning there are more players in the Rams’ secondary to cover other areas of the field. That plays a crucial role in the Rams’ ability to prevent scores and is also a reason why the secondary has looked so good though two weeks.
Byron Young and Jared Verse are, unsurprisingly, the lynchpins of this pressure. Young has five pressures and three sacks on just four blitzes this year, while Verse has four pressures on five blitzes.“
