Different Season, Same Trap

Andy Reid had McNabb so he focused on the vertical passing aspect. Mike Shannahan had Terrell Davis, Clinton Portis and a host of other backs and liked to focus on the Zone running game. Zorn had one offensive lineman so he focused on running left and the 3 step sack.

When you break it down a QB of all 3 systems can tell you pretty much what "FB West Right Slot 372 'Y' Stick” means.

Lol.

Like I said McNabb can understand the language all he wants but playing with different personnel means that our focus will be different than what it was in philly.

Right now he has the same line Zorn had last year, sans Chris Samuels. Going downfield probably won't work too well with our line. And running a Zone Blocking scheme necessitates actual blockers.

As of now I can't tell you what our strong suit is that McNabb would have to adapt to. Whatever it is though he'll need time to get acclimated to it.
