DaRon Bland has been struggling badly. The Eagles need to identify who Bland is covering and make that matchup a regular part of the offense... DeVonta Smith can win against Bland, but the Eagles should challenge him with their other receivers too.

Smith can exploit Cowboys' CB DaRon Bland, who has been struggling badly.

DeVonta Smith can win against DaRon Bland, the Cowboys' struggling cornerback who has been nothing short of a disaster in coverage. Bland loses his footing, cannot recover when receivers break outside, and has been struggling hugely. Smith should be targeted repeatedly to exploit this individual matchup advantage, though the Eagles should also challenge Bland with their other receivers to avoid allowing him to struggle against everyone else while barely making him work.
