Part 2/7:
Execution in the Trenches
The Eagles defensive line was relentless, registering multiple sacks and pressures throughout the game. It’s essential to note that the Eagles managed to rack up an astonishing 38 pressures on 49 of Mahomes’ dropbacks, relying solely on their front four. Such staggering numbers emphasized the coordination and skill within the defensive unit. The four-man line's effectiveness made a significant statement; it is rare for a defensive line to have such an impact without blitzing.
