Jalen Ramsey suggests Vic Fangio misused Dolphins' CBs, Should Eagles be worried?

[Philly Man]

Vic Fangio brought his talents to Philadelphia, and Jalen Ramsey is among those in Miami who didn’t shed any tears about his departure. During the Pro Bowl, Ramsey stated that he “wished Fangio well,” but his real feelings came out after it was revealed that the Dolphins would release star cornerback Xavien Howard. After the release was reported, Ramsey took to social media to proclaim Howard as the “best cornerback in Dolphins history.” Ramsey’s comments at the bottom of the post should be most concerning for the Eagles, as he suggested that someone failed to utilize the talents of two All-Pro caliber cornerbacks properly. Shid be crazy how stuff plays out sometimes but 1 thing ikno fa sho is that it was an honor teaming up with the GREATEST corner in @MiamiDolphins History in my opinion… (I won’t ever forgive dude for not utilizing our full skillset!) pic.twitter.com/yoYlTLcnP6 — Jalen Ramsey (@jalenramsey) February 23, 2024 Last season, the Dolphins were 19th in the DVOA rankings. Miami finished 10th in yards allowed (18th in 2022) and ninth in yards allowed per play (14th in 2022) with Fangio as defensive coordinator. The Dolphins also finished third in the NFL in sacks (56) and tied for eighth in forced turnovers (27). The Eagles were No. 26 in yards and No. 30 in points allowed. Ramsey’s comments could worry some Eagles fans, but Philadelphia’s last two defensive coordinators were Fangio disciples, and they likely misused Darius Slay and James Bradberry at times. Fangio’s scheme implements some man-coverage principles and creates a lot of versatility in his defensive calls. His defense focuses on limiting explosive plays with heavy zone coverage and looks that give opposing offenses a chance to run the ball. Fangio’s defenses don’t blitz a lot either, with the idea being to limit explosive passing plays, force teams to run the football, and then win with four pass rushers up front. With Fangio now in Philadelphia, Ramsey and the Dolphins defenders should be pleased with Anthony Weaver and his defensive approach.
