I finally got around to watching all the Eagles games, and I think it's a misnomer that they sit back in soft zone and rush with 4. They like to bring pressure frequently and man up often. It is true that they do rush with 4 at times and play soft zone, but they are not nearly as effective when they do that.
I also think that Andy will be able to scheme around a lot of the pressure that their D generates. When you have the best QB in the game, that will negate a lot of the pressure they can generate by getting the ball out quickly, which I think the Eagles are susceptible to (they made a lot of hay against some pretty damn pedestrian QBs....I mean, really Carson Wentz.....9 frigging sacks in one game???? several other games with 6-7 sacks)
