These are two reps of the Eagles against Cover 2, and on both plays Wentz is able to hook up with his tight ends for first downs.

The play design on the first snap is pure gold. With a YY formation (both tight ends lined up next to each other on one side by themselves), the Eagles show Indy two clearly defined strengths of the formation. To the tight end side, this is a "run" strength. To the two-receiver side (at the bottom of the screen) you have the "passing strength." The Eagles were expecting Cover 2, and that's exactly what they got. One of the keys to this play working is that the Eagles know, that in Cover 2, the middle linebacker will open up his hips to the passing strength. Watch him at the snap, as he drops back and turns his hips to the bottom of the screen. He won't be a factor on any routes behind him to the offensive left side.

Now, the Eagles just have to take care of the safety over the top. That's Goedert's job on this play. He has to run right at the safety and take him away, and he does that by attacking downfield and breaking to the corner. The other underneath defender is held by the running back's action in the backfield and, voila, you have a huge void over the middle of the field down the left hash. Ertz runs a post route for 28 yards and a first down. That just shows a great understanding of defensive tendencies and how to attack them.

Another area of weakness in Cover 2 is what I like to call the "Turkey Hole", the soft spot in zone coverage over the cornerback and under the safety along the sideline. On the second play, Goedert runs another corner route here, right into the Turkey Hole, and Wentz hits him for a first down after initially looking at the running back underneath (just to hold the corner for a split second).
