A play in the life of Billy Davis (aka why Jim Schwartz has a low bar)

I didn't set out with the intent to kick more dirt on Billy Davis, just to compare his coverage schemes against the Lions this season with the ones Jim Schwartz used two years ago when he faced Detroit as the defensive coordinator of the Bills. Thing is, I didn't get very far, because I ran into this humdinger of a play call that the Eagles used against the Lions with about five minutes left in the first quarter. It really is Davis in a nutshell.

To set the stage, Vinny Curry has just stuffed Ameer Abdullah in the back field for a loss of three.
