That's some high praise right there.

And he did all of that with Reid calling plays! Has Reid forgotten how much fun that was?

That was with Chip Kelly at HC.

Thanks for the thread, Aspen.

Any chance you can break down some of these passing concepts in more detail, ie what the QB should be reading pre and post snap?

Maclin > D Jax
Kelce > Celek/Ertz
Conley > Cooper
Hill is damn sure faster and probably better than their #3 was

I think Foles could do some awesome stuff if given the chance.

There's just too much damn speed and talent on this offense to be playing conservative football.

Thats where I'm at

The pieces are there for a genuine quick strike offense, if we had a QB capable of, and willing to make it so... Smith keeps the interceptions to a minimum, the only problem is the same holds true for big plays and touchdowns

Thank you.

Of course, people need to take it with a grain of salt, and realize every QB around the league miss guys a lot more than most people would suspect.

Need to look at what you posted still but I love when people post breakdowns on plays. Keep 'em coming- for Alex and anyone else!

I'm glad Aspen was able to provide this for you. I saw your comment in the other thread but forgot to respond that I didn't have access to the All-22 myself, was just basing my comment off of the live action.

I'd love if it was a weekly regular of highlighting the 20 or so plays from all 3 phases from the previous game to better illustrate what's really going on and drive the discussion.
Of course, that's a rather time intensive ask for someone to review it all and pull them, and I know people have lives to attend to.

Maybe if more people had access to them and could post how Aspen was able to a "Tale of the Tape Repository" thread that would allow whomever to post a few or even 1 play in particular that caught their eye for discussion, would be a worthwhile addition to CP.

Totally feasible, but dependent really upon who & how many have access to A22. It's nice that you easily embed plays from their site if you do have access. I would have thought the NFL would have made linking or sharing any of their stuff a chore to have to work around.

Either way, I'm grateful for what is shared and threads like this!

Off topic, but is Maclin really a number 1 WR? He'd obviously be better under a QB that can get him the ball more but he wasn't a number 1 with Philly was he? I thought that was Jackson.

Just another ignorant comment. Smith's record vs. Cassel's? Take their 6 best seasons of stats and put them next to each other...it's not even close. But to validate your argument that Smith stinks you compare him to Cassel.

Smith and Reid have turned this franchise around, only small minded fans like yourself think otherwise.

Just did, rough estimate but kinda close lol. definitely not blown out of the water like you make it seem.

63.4 completion 17,835 yards 107 touchdowns 46 ints

58.9 completion 16,328 yards 96 touchdowns 71 ints

They were almost identical prior to Alex coming here

He had 1300 yards and 10 TDs in his last year in philly.

That was coming off a torn acl and with journeymen at QB.

He provides the total of cj age at WR...Alex just isn't trusting him, because unfortunately...Alex doesn't trust himself and if he still doesn't trust himself in the fourth year in the same system...he probably never will.

He's gonna have to play the best gal of his career the next 12 weeks for us to make the playoffs.

People waiting on a 32 year old QB to all the sudden get beyond an average state is asking too much. The excuses for Smith are old and tiring. He is who he is. The play is not gonna change until a different one is brought on...or dare I say...drafted? Perhaps? Lol.
