This worked against a Seahawks team that played man coverage and blitzed. The Eagles played zone the entire game and did not blitz one time. Not at all the same defense. That defense is designed to defend what Tom Brady did to the Seahawks.
No QB is having success when teams can get consistent historic pressure only rushing 4. We saw the Giants beat the shit out of Tom Brady in 2 SB’s utilizing that scheme and rarely blitzing.
