Reports: Nick Sirianni recruits key player as their top choice for walk-on position.
You need to eat sometimes. You’re so hungry that you just go to the table and eat. You also eat. You don’t slow down either.
These are the things the Eagles hope will happen with a defense that has been very good the last two weeks.
After having six quarterback sacks in the first four games, the Eagles have been all over the other teams’ quarterbacks like a cheap suit in the last two. They had five sacks in the 20-16 win over the Cleveland Browns at Lincoln Financial Field and eight sacks in Sunday’s 28-3 win over the New York Giants. They are tied for eighth place in the NFL with 19 quarterback sacks after six games.
Someone once said in the NFL that quarterback hits come in groups of four.
Josh Sweat, a defensive end, has sacked the QB three times in a row and is tied with Jalen Carter for the team lead with three. “I like to think of it this way,” he said. “What we just showed is how good we are.” Our identity stays the same for another week. We’re looking strong. Two weeks, no points, no scores (they didn’t give up any goals in the wins over the Browns and the Giants). Everyone stand up now. Things are going well. Our mood is good.
The Eagles were excited about their front seven and the depth and talent that had been added through the NFL Draft and free agency in recent years. The team kept working hard and pushing, even though they didn’t get many sacks at first, and now all of their hard work is paying off.
end Because he is fast off the edge, Bryce Huff, who was signed as a free agent last spring, has sacked the quarterback 1.5 times in the last two games. Brandon Graham, who has been a football player for 15 years, has been on the field all season as a defensive end. Nolan Smith, an edge player in his second season, has come a long way and been hard to handle the last few weeks. He now has two quarterback sacks and 15 total stops, and his quickness and hard work have made a difference.
On Sunday at MetLife Stadium, rookie Jalyx Hunt joined the fun and got his first career sack.
Things are definitely getting better for the defensive line and the defense as a whole, which has been adding blitzes here and there and seeing great results.
“Man, they come in groups. The man said, “I’m just glad to see it.” “Let’s stick with it. You’ll never be happy. We still have a lot of ball, so you need to keep going. The guys did a great job of staying together while we figure out who we are. It might not have gone that way.
Huff said: “It’s a great feeling knowing that the whole D-line is getting back there, knowing that the whole D-line is producing, and even the linebackers are getting back there affecting the quarterback.”
Really, it’s everyone. Along with Carter causing trouble inside, tackles Jordan Davis and Milton Williams are giving the Eagles a lot of help. Second-year player Moro Ojomo and young veteran Thomas Booker have also added a lot of energy and production with their great first steps and hard work.
The idea the Eagles had when they put together this 53-man roster is starting to take shape. The next step is to go on the road again to play Cincinnati, an NFL team that has as many explosive offensive weapons as any other.
It’s not going to be easy.
What Graham said was, “We get that.” “Long, long season. It needs to be done every week. But you know what they say: once you taste something, you want more. You have to keep coming back for more and when it’s time to do it, you do it. It’s time to end. We must continue to push ourselves and work hard.
Carter got two sacks in the win over New York. He said, “I got two sacks.” I’m glad. It’s now time to watch movies for next week. “You’ll never be happy.”
