The defensive philosophy that has carried the Philadelphia Eagles to the Super Bowl is relatively simple. sb57 chiefs eagles sports kprc2 click2houston
A deep rotation of defensive linemen provides constant pressure that makes opposing quarterbacks uncomfortable and often leads to them ending on the ground.
That will be the formula the Eagles will hope to replicate on Sunday against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs . Mahomes was sacked three times in his previous Super Bowl appearance two years ago against Tampa Bay when he was constantly on the run behind a banged-up line. Philadelphia followed up a regular season with 70 sacks — tied for the third-most ever — with eight more so far in the playoffs. The 78 sacks combined in the regular season and playoffs have been topped only by the Chicago’s Monsters of the Midway with 82 sacks in 1984 and 80 the next season.
Philadelphia spreads the wealth around with a record four players reaching double digits in the regular season: Reddick , Javon Hargrave , Josh Sweat and Graham . Reddick has put together three straight double-digit sack seasons in his final year with the Cardinals, one year in Carolina and this season in Philadelphia, where he has relished the opportunity to be back near his boyhood home in New Jersey playing for the team he rooted for as a kid.
