Billy Davis isn’t sure where exactly the Eagles’ defense is going to end up in the next six weeks, but he knows it’s going to look nothing like the unit that took the field in 2012.

And so during the spring, the tape from last year’s team wasn’t of much use to him from a teaching standpoint. Instead, Davis decided to show the players tape of a different defense to use as a blueprint: the Pittsburgh Steelers.

“If you want to teach a technique, the best way is to show somebody doing it correctly,” Davis said. “Well, we don’t have any padded film of that so we use other teams in the league that play similar techniques. And I’ve got a heavy background with the Steelers and a couple coaches so we just chose to use some of those.”

As we mentioned earlier this week, Davis was 26 when he got his first job in the NFL as a quality control coach with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The names that were in the room with him back in 1992 still resonate in the league 21 years later.

LeSean McCoy has a simple goal for the 2013 season.

“I want to be more dominant,” said McCoy on Thursday upon arriving at camp. “The last few years I’ve had good years but I also have to be dominant, especially in this offense with the ability to run the ball more, where I can kind of take over a game. There have been flashes of it in the past but I have the ability to do it day in and day out, game in and game out. I think it’s a different story. Chip has shown that he runs the ball tons.

“Kind of getting back to that old stage where I’m used to taking over a game. I think with all the talent and the supporting cast around me, that should be easy.”

Maybe not easy, but the ingredients are there.

No holdout and little hoopla this time around.

Jeremy Maclin, entering the final year of his rookie contract, reported to training camp on time as expected. He took part in OTAs and minicamp this spring and didn’t contemplate a holdout.

Why not?

“How many of those guys got what they wanted?” Maclin asked the gathered media rhetorically. “That’s how I look at it.”

The 25-year-old had a front-row seat for DeSean Jackson‘s contract squabble, saw that his methods got him nowhere. Maclin is taking a different approach.

No coach on Chip Kelly’s staff has been with the franchise longer than Ted Williams.

He started off as the tight ends coach for a couple years, was in charge of the running backs from 1997 to 2012 and is now back with the tight ends in his 19th season.

At 69-years-old, having seen plenty throughout the course of his career, Williams seemed like a good person to ask about what Kelly’s offense is going to look like once it’s unveiled during the regular season.

“I don’t think that anything’s going to change from what he knows,” Williams said. “It’ll be very, very similar to what you saw at Oregon because the play-calling… he needs to be comfortable with what he’s saying to the offense and how he’s communicating it. So you don’t just out of the box decide that you’re going to do something a certain way and you don’t feel comfortable with it. So it’s going to look like Oregon.”

“I joke with Mike all the time about in high school, my whole team had his cleats when he was playing in the NFL,” LeSean McCoy said back in 2010 following a comeback win over the Texans. “Now I’m in the same huddle with him, locker room with him, joking with him, texting him, calling him. I’m a fan of his. I just can’t show him too much. But it’s different. It’s the same for me, for Maclin, for DeSean. Us young guys, to be playing with him, we’re excited. We look up to him.”

This helps us put the current quarterback competition in its proper context. It shows us the challenge that may lie in front of Nick Foles.
