One of the biggest stories after the ' Super Bowl victory over the was the aggre Jeremiah Martin Jersey sivene s of the Eagles offense. Between the "Philly Special" play-call that became emblematic of their style of play and the fourth-down conversion to that kept alive what would eventually become the game-winning drive, Doug Pederson and company showed that going for it in advantageous situations can help a team overcome the odds to win -- and win big.Eagles offensive coordinator Frank Reich played a big role in helping Pederson develop that aggre sive style of play, and he plans to bring that philosophy with him to his new job as the head coach of the . Reich on bringing Pederson/Eagles offensive aggre sivene s to Indy: "That's what we're going to do. It backfires once in awhile, but by and large, it's very positive. There's a new way of thinking that you have to be open to." Derek Schultz (@Schultz975) Kyrie Irving Jersey That will be a big change for the Colts, who were one of the least aggre sive teams in 2017. Take a look at this chart, via Football Outsiders, which shows how often every NFL coach went for it Taurean Prince Jersey on fourth down.

Former Colts coach Chuck Pagano was one of the NFL's most conservative coaches, electing to go for it only four times in 105 opportunities. Considering the league-wide fourth down conversion rate over the last five seasons is right around 50 percent (per Pro-Football-Reference, NFL teams in games where the score was within two touchdowns), it seems safe to say that most teams are far too conservative when it comes to their decision-making on fourth downs. If the Colts actually get back on the field and ramp up their aggre sivene s at the same time, they could make a bigger than expected jump in the standings if other teams around the league continue to play things Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot Jersey more conservatively. |
