PHILADELPHIA – Danny McCray saw something special in the Eagles’ punt coverage – which is to say, it wasn’t there.
“We had ran that scheme the punt before, and they didn’t block me – but I started a little too far over,” McCray said. “So I came over to the sideline and let Coach Rich know that it was wide open.”
Hearing that McCray was unblocked, special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia dialed up the same call the next time the Eagles’ punt team took the field. The result helped pave the way to a Dallas victory.
