Former scout Dan Hatman shares some observations about the Giants' defense.
With the New York Giants facing the Philadelphia Eagles Monday night, Dan Hatman, director of The Scouting Academy and a former pro scout for both organizations, broke down the Giants' defense. Here are some of his observations.
These, incidentally, are somewhat in a scout's short-hand, so you may have to decipher a little bit.
- Spags is mixing Over and Under fronts (43 and 34 looks) with his Cov 3 shell, looks like elements of BLT
- NYG consistently got 8 in the box vs SF 12 and 13 Personnel
Defensive line
- Moore and Owa Odighizuwa sub in for 95 Hankins and 96 Bromley in rush packages
- SF best runs came in the secondnd half, attacking the weakside of the formation and Moore with Inside Zone and Counter runs
Linebackers
- All NYG LBs will fill aggressively with clear path to the ball carrier
