Eagles Snap Counts: Forget About the LB Rotation

Posted on September 17, 2012 by Sheil Kapadia — No Comments ↓

DeMeco Ryans and Mychal Kendricks both played 100 percent of the Eagles’ defensive snaps against the Ravens. Here’s the complete position-by-position look at playing time.

Under Ryans’ Direction, Eagles’ D Finishes Strong

Posted on September 16, 2012 by Sheil Kapadia — No Comments ↓

With 1:55 on the clock, Joe Flacco and the Ravens’ offense took over from their own 20-yard-line.

Down 24-23, all they needed was a field goal. Their kicker, Justin Tucker, had already nailed a 48-yarder, a 51-yarder and a 56-yarder earlier in the game.

Many of the players who took the field for the Eagles’ defense were familiar with this situation. Last season, in five of the team’s eight losses, the Eagles had the lead going into the fourth quarter. And in the final 15 minutes of those games, they were outscored, 60-3.

But one of the players who wasn’t in Philadelphia last year is DeMeco Ryans. And while there are many reasons why the defense has come through at the end of the team’s final two games, the stability provided by the middle linebacker is certainly one of them.
