So far, the Philadelphia Eagles' toughest opponent could be themselves
Read Original Source
A month into the NFL season, one team — Team A, let’s call it — has yet to gain more yards than any of its opponents. Limited time: Save 25% on NBC News subscription Get exclusive reporting, live Q&As and ad-free reading. Team A’s passing offense is ghastly. Last week, its rarely thrown-to star receiver posted a cryptic message on Twitter after the team failed to complete a single pass after halftime. Another MVP-level offensive weapon isn’t producing as expected, either.
AI Summary
Main Idea: The Philadelphia Eagles are 4-0, but shaky offense and tension around A.J. Brown suggest their biggest challenge may be staying on the same page.
Key Points:
- The Eagles have won all four of their games and are one of only two undefeated teams left.
- Their passing game has struggled, with few first downs through the air and very few big plays.
- A.J. Brown sparked concern with a cryptic social media post after a poor passing performance, then said he was frustrated but not calling anyone out.
- The team’s running game has also been less effective, even as the defense and special teams have helped carry the Eagles to wins.
