The first half of the Eagles game against the Rams on Sunday was a disaster. The offense couldn’t do anything on the ground, or in the air, and had three straight 3-and-outs. After the game, Jalen Hurts admitted that it was unacceptable what they did to themselves in the first half, but noted that being aggressive in the second half showed what kind of team they really can be.
Both Hurts and A.J. Brown talked about the offensive style, with the QB notably saying that they have to stop playing to lose, and the WR saying that they need to play faster and more aggressive.
BROWN: “Me personally, I truly believe we’ve got so many good players on this team and at times you can feel like we’re being conservative and I don’t think it should be like that…Let your killers do their thing and play fast and play aggressive. Not saying that we haven’t been, but me personally that’s what I would like”
Head coach Nick Sirianni explained post-game that while some of the offensive issues were due to field position and other factors, they ultimately learned a valuable lesson about not always letting a defense dictate what they do on offense. Sometimes, the offense needs to play their game, and let the defense figure out how to stop it.
At the very least, the win seems to have been an eye-opener for the team, and hopefully the coaches will make some adjustments to their approach and the players will continue to buy in and improve as the season goes on.
