All-22: What We Learned About the Eagles’ Defense

The NFL gave football geeks everywhere our wish this offseason, announcing it would release All-22 coaches’ film to the public (for a small fee, of course).

Unlike TV footage, the All-22 angles account for every player on the field on any given play.

I took a look at the coaches’ tape and came away with some new observations from Sunday’s Eagles-Browns game. We’ll start with the defense here and post offensive observations next.

Eagles-Ravens Injury Updates

As we mentioned earlier, Jeremy Maclin did not practice today.

Meanwhile, safety Kurt Coleman (facial lacerations), wide receiver Riley Cooper (fractured collarbone) and cornerback Curtis Marsh (hamstring) were limited. Andy Reid has already ruled Cooper out for Sunday’s game against the Ravens. Coleman was in the locker room before practice and sounded like he fully expected to play.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy ReidTime to check in on what the national media are saying about the Eagles this week. You probably could have guessed, but Michael Vick and Andy Reid are the focus of criticism around the country. Here’s the roundup.

Eagles Wake-Up Call: A Look At the 2011 Draft Class

General consensus seems to be that you should wait at least three years before evaluating a draft class.

But considering the Eagles released their 2011 second-round pick, Jaiquawn Jarrett, yesterday, now seems like a good time to at least assess how each of the team’s 11 picks is doing.

What Experts Said About Jarrett When He Was Drafted

The Eagles decided earlier today that it was time to cut ties with Jaiquawn Jarrett.

Back in 2011, they took the safety out of Temple with the 22nd pick in the second round. Looking back at the selection, my recollection was that many thought the Eagles might have drafted him a little early, but most believed he was a good prospect.

The beauty of the Internet is that we can go back and look things up. Below is a look at what people said about Jarrett when the Eagles took him.

Eagles Could Bring Gilyard Back

As we mentioned earlier, the Eagles could be looking to make a roster move at wide receiver in the next day or two.

Jeremy Maclin suffered a hip injury, and his status for Sunday’s home opener against the Ravens is unknown. Jason Avant suffered a wrist contusion. And Andy Reid said Riley Cooper won’t be back as he continues to rehab a fractured collarbone.

Apparently, one guy Howie Roseman and Andy Reid are looking at is Mardy Gilyard.

Reid Explains Run/Pass Discrepancy (Again)

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy ReidAndy Reid has answered the question many times during his 13-plus years as the Eagles head coach: Why didn’t he run the ball more?

Sometimes the question is unfair. As any analyst worth his pocket-square will tell you, this is a passing league. If you can’t move the football through the air, chances are, you’re not competing for a playoff spot, let alone a Lombardi Trophy.

But other times, the question has merit. Today was one of those times. Michael Vick was in a funk, making mistake after mistake, going 29-for-56 (51.8 percent) and tossing four interceptions. He was sacked twice and hit 11 times, as the offensive line struggled throughout.

Vick: ‘I Gotta Get Out Of Cleveland’

On the play before Michael Vick threw the game-winning touchdown to Clay Harbor, he nearly threw his fifth interception, but Browns linebacker L.J. Fort couldn’t make the play.

Did the Eagles quarterback feel lucky the game didn’t end in a loss right there?

“Oh man, yeah. I gotta get out of Cleveland,” Vick said. “I gotta get out of Cleveland.”
