You can't run a certain style all season long that taxes and punishes the front line from the beginning to the end. It takes a toll. It punishes the body.
The Eagles pounded the front the whole first half of the season. Then they should have taken the foot off the gas pedal and gotten some rest. 2 Full Seasons of pounding and the guys are gonna get beat up. And now? If they win thru this playoff run, I will bow down and honor the front linemen. Because those guys are putting it all on the line for this 2 year run
Are you implying that the offensive line is the issue for the eagles?
I was responding to a poster above who mentioned collapse. And I was explaining that players wear down due to the physicality. I am an ex college coach, so I was sharing from experience. Then what you have to do to prevent collapse, you have to bake it in and coach it in to prevent it. Maybe light practices. Throw on 4th and 1.(I've seen an interview where kelce was saying he was gettin taxed and jacked up on that bush push) SO there are preventative measures that can be taken to prevent collapse and worn down
I mean I guess it’s possible. My biggest concern on that play has always been Jason kelce. It completely baffles me that at age 36 he’s still willing to do something like that.
