Eagles to run Tampa Cover 2 D ?

Free agent S Quintin Mikell believes new Eagles defensive coordinator Juan Castillo will move from an aggressive blitz-heavy scheme to more of a Cover-2. Castillo has expressed admiration for Lovie Smith's Tampa-2 system in Chicago, and defensive coach Jim Washburn was imported to generate more of a push from the front four linemen. "I know Coach (Andy) Reid has wanted to run the Cover 2 for a long time," said Mikell. Theoretically, the Eagles fantasy D/ST could take a hit with the aggressiveness dialed back from the Jim Johnson blitzkrieg days.
