The Edge #5: Football Analytics

In this episode, we sit down with Big Data Bowl Semifinalist Matt Polsky, who walks us through his innovative project on decoding motion in the NFL — including how to spot a decoy motion vs. a real one, and what it reveals about pre-snap coverage tendencies. We also dive into a Bird Talk segment on Vic Fangio — exploring what makes his defense so hard to master (and why it might finally click in Philly) — plus a closer look at Kevin Patullo’s evolving role on the offensive staff. If you’re an Eagles fan who craves nuance or loves the marriage of football and analytics, this one’s for you. SUBSCRIBE for more Eagles analysis weekly! Learn more about your ad choices.
