Part 5/11:
The defeat highlighted some troubling issues for the Eagles. Despite their 4-0 start, the team appeared sluggish and disjointed in key moments. Their offensive line, which had been a strength, struggled without injured players like Carter and Dickerson, causing trouble in pass protection and run blocking.
Jaylen Hurts, usually a dynamic dual-threat, faced difficulties in the second half, especially with a sluggish pass rush and ineffective run game. The offensive strategy appeared overly predictable, with a reliance on the tush push and minimal creative improvisation.
