Hurts has regressed back to his mean.

Eagles had a Wildcat moment and the league figured them out.

Defense is atrocious in 3rd down.

Seems like the staff has lost the team.

Feels like there is also no leadership from Hurts in the locker room and he doesn't command respect because they all know deep down that he can't throw and was propped up by an elite roster around him, much like he was at Alabama.

The best part is his retarded contract is going to prevent them from improving via free agency. Unless they draft way above average, some ugly years are coming.

it really did all come crashing down when Big Dom douched it up on the sideline

They had to replace both coordinators.

Sirianni is a huge douche canoe, and Hurts is overrated as hell

The were frauds to begin with


i’m an eagles fan and it’s this

i told folks at work and friends when they had one L that they had the best record but no way were they the best team

8 of the wins were by 9 pts or less, matter of time before their luck ran dry

I’m an Eagles fan too and last year was a year when they had extremely good injury fortune. Slay and Bradbury were two guys that had career years last year and unlikely to continue at the same level of production at their ages, yet the Eagles resigned both. Losing two great coordinators also didn’t help, but I think they let Sirianni get another shot to get the coordinators right before job security really comes into question

The changing of both offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator has been too much. Offensive play calling is just atrocious. I think the offensive players are fed up with it.

Defensively the play calling is not only bad but the production is not there. Not a lot of pressure on the QB. Last year there were four players with at least 10 sacks. This year there is only one with 10 or more sacks. With that lack of QB pressure secondary is left covering scramble plays. Not much great coverage up the middle either.

Didn't they have a fairly easy schedule last year?

They had the easiest path to the Super Bowl I’ve ever seen.

Daniel Jones and the fluke New York Giants then SF’s practice squad QB carousel.

There were other posters on this board earlier in the season who were pointing out that they weren't winning many games impressively.

Some teams are just charmed sometimes and keep winning, but it felt like it was going to catch up with the Eagles eventually, and it evidently did.
