Watching the Eagles / Cowboys game, I was wondering...

Why isn't our blitzing scheme as effective as the Eagles is? I know we looked good against Hawaii, but the rest of this season has been very disappointing to me as far as Tenuta's blitzes go. We blitzed the majority of the time, but it seems like most of our opponents were able to pick them up fairly easily. Everyone knew we were gonna blitz, but so do the Eagles opponents, yet Jim Johnson continues to do it successfully. I think the Eagles defense plays the way ours should. Hope Tenuta, Brown and Weis are watching this game and taking notes.

We sent ALOT of two and three man blitzes this year which either opened up a big zone or allowed time for receivers to bust a man coverage. I just don't like to blitz that much.
