There isn't too much they can do about the defense, they were weak up the middle in the back 7 to begin with then injuries made it worse. But on offense they have refused to adapt to a change defenses have made. Ever since AJ and Devonte went off earlier this season teams are playing a lot of 2 high safety and taking away whichever receiver goes deep and in some cases even double teaming them both! And yet they continue to launch deep balls into that double coverage even when someone is wide open underneath. They ended 3 drives last night doing that. Once on 3rd down when they passed up a wide open Devonte for a first down and threw a bomb to a double covered AJ. And twice late in the game when they threw and INT on a first down bomb for no reason. How much of that is on Hurts and how much is coaching I can't say. Obviously its some of both. But their philosophy needs to change, if they keep attempting deep balls when that is exactly what the defense is trying to take away the results will be the same.

It was never complicated, always relied on simply having better players and letting them win their 1 on 1s. Problem is teams have had 2 years now to take away those advantages, double team, crash the box on those QB draws...it's just not working as well anymore. But I still think wasting 5 plays a game on deep balls is a big part of it also. They might not be as prolific as last year still but they would be a lot better if they focused on taking what defenses are giving them and not wasting 5 plays a game forcing a deep pass into double coverage. I am not very impressed with their offensive coaching. Anyone can design a decent offense with the skill players they have...they seem unable to adapt now that teams have come up with ways to limit them. That's pretty bad considering how good the talent is across the board on offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Teams go through ups and downs. They just played the two best teams in the league, and played a third in a place that is arguably one of the toughest places to win in the NFL. The Eagles are solid. They will be around when it counts. They just need to stick to their run first mentality. They aren’t the fall behind kind of team. This from someone who hates the Eagles. They’re good. Wait and see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed on the defense; it's similar problems to last year. They're just getting exposed more because the offense isn't as productive this year. Agreed, the offense is where the big problems are IMO. It's basically the same personnel as they had last year with Steichen, but there is absolutely no rhythm to this offense. They get caught making ridiculous play choices and seem to always shift away from what is working (or never get anything working to begin with). Teams know that Hurts is going to look at AJ, Devonta, and maybe Goedert and that's it. If those three are covered he's only rarely going to throw it to someone else. I'd say Hurts wasn't himself last night, but he was running fast and got a lot of first downs. I'd pin it on playcalling and coaching. Hurts is playing hero ball, running around in the backfield looking for guys who aren't there. I haven't given up hope and I think they can get it together to win a playoff game or two, but the last 3 weeks have been very frustrating to watch. Last night even more so because they clearly overmatched Seattle in multiple phases of the game, but couldn't pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
