Snake Eyes
Posted: October 24th, 2021 | Author: Tommy Lawlor | Filed under: Philadelphia Eagles | 1 Comment »Another Sunday, another ugly Eagles loss. The final score was 33-22, but the game wasn’t that close. The Eagles have now fallen to 2-5 and are one of the worst teams in the league. All the optimism from the opening Sunday is long since gone.
After going up 7-0 and looking good, the Eagles fell apart. They gave up 30 unanswered points to trail 30-7. Ugh.
Derek Carr went 31-34 as a passer. That would be impressive in practice. It is embarrassing to see an Eagles defense allow that kind of performance. DC Jonathan Gannon is less popular in Philly than a Cheesesteak from Arby’s.
The Eagles did try to run the ball but an early injury to Miles Sanders (on a screen) changed the offense and led to some real issues.
Eagles have trailed by 12 or more points in 6 games this year, most in the league. Trailed by 10 or more 12 times last year. That is some bad football.

Jeff Lurie cannot be a happy man right now. His proud franchise is one of the league’s big losers right now.
The Eagles have 6 wins since the start of the 2020 season (a span of 23 games).
Only four teams with fewer wins during that period:
Texans
Lions
Jets

You don’t want to be on a list with that group.
No one should feel safe after the disaster of 2020 and the awful start to 2021.
