Nick Foles won't hide the fact the Atlanta Falcons are one of the few NFL teams that use a Cover-3 scheme, one the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback has had a ton of success with in his career.

Foles has faced the Cover-3 scheme three times in his career, going 3-0 in those starts:

2014 (vs. Jacksonville Jaguars): 27-of-45, 322 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

2015: (vs. Seattle Seahawks): 18-of-27, 297 yards, TD,

2016: (vs. Jacksonville Jaguars): 20-of-33, 187 yards, TD

In three games against the Cover-3 scheme, Foles has completed 61.9 percent of his passes for 806 yards, four touchdowns and one interception for a 94.38 passer rating. Foles knows what Falcons head coach Dan Quinn will run, which plays in his favor.

"What they're saying is, 'Hey, we're going to show you what we're doing.' That's their mentality," Foles said. "And us, we're going to say, 'All right, we're going to go play, we're going to be aggressive and we're going to go at you.'"

Foles has also been sacked nine times against the Cover-3 scheme, but the Falcons aren't expected to blitz much. The Eagles quarterback will still have time to go through his progressions, especially with a single-high safety.

"Any time there's success in a game, it's where you're comfortable," Foles said. "You're in a rhythm, you're in the zone, and you're just seeing your progressions. You have protection up front, your guys are running crisp routes. That's the big reason any time with a Cover-3 defense you have success.

"With defenses like this, it's always going through progressions. Someone is going to be open. You can't cover everyone. It comes down to execution, going through reads, playing smart, and then when you step up in the pocket or get out of the pocket, make something happen."

If the Eagles can gain positive yardage on first and second down, setting themselves up with 3rd-and-5 (or less) situations, Foles could be in for a big day facing the Cover-3 once again.
