After taking a close look at the Eagles on offense against Seattle, it’s time to turn the attention to the defense. Jim Schwartz’s unit had a tough task against Russell Wilson and a very versatile Seahawks offense. Going into the game, I was interested to see how the Eagles would choose to attack the mobile quarterback. Would they pressure? Or focus more on coverage on the back end? According to most statistical services, the Eagles only blitzed Wilson three times. By my analysis, it was actually far more.
