Trent Williams, Jammal Brown ready for Phillys wide nine front - The Insider - The Washington Post
Much has been made about the Philadelphia Eagles’ “wide nine” defensive scheme, and the team’s inability to stop opponents since switching to that front this season. The popular belief in Philadelphia is that Andy Reid & Co. should scrap the defense and go back to the system used in the past.
But Redskins tackles Trent Williams and Jammal Brown believe that the Eagles aren’t as far off as people believe in making the system work effectively, and they see how the wide nine could cause problems for opponents.
