Doug Pederson said Monday that he was not worried when Nick Foles got off to a shaky start in Saturday’s divisional-round playoff win over Atlanta, and that he didn’t make any big changes to get the offense flowing better in the second half.
Instead, Pederson let Foles settle in, and stayed faithful to the concepts he’d scripted – concepts Pederson acknowledged are similar to what the Minnesota Vikings try to do, under his fellow branch of the Andy Reid coaching tree, Minnesota offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur. The Eagles will host the Vikings on Sunday in the NFC championship game.
