Vic Fangio talks about the Eagles’ plan at safety

Key Points:

• Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio emphasized the need for more turnovers and sacks, noting that quick passes by opponents have limited sack opportunities, and highlighted efforts to improve players' ability to capitalize on takeaway chances through more realistic ball drills.
• Fangio explained the current safety rotation between Marcus Epps and Michael Carter, indicating that newly signed Kenny Moore might be a future option despite not having played safety before, and dismissed injury concerns regarding Drew Mukuba.
• Jonathan Greenard’s return is progressing as expected, with Fangio anticipating an increase in his snap count to around 30 in the upcoming game against the Rams.
• Preparing for the Rams poses a significant challenge due to their strong running game, effective play-action offense, and skilled quarterback Matthew Stafford, whom Fangio called a first-ballot Hall of Famer, along with standout receiver Davante Adams.
• Fangio noted that while Rams coach Sean McVay's run scheme hasn’t drastically changed, the team now uses more versatile tight ends to enhance their running game, combining receiving and blocking skills to create extra gaps.
