That 3rd quarter was ugly, and the 2nd half woes continue. The bye week comes at a good time. Let Lane and dikkerson get healthy, give Sirianni and Steichen a chance to make some adjustments, and enjoy some stress-free football.
But they also dropped 26 points and three TDs on a defense that hasn’t allowed more than 20 and a single TD all season. That’s more than what Tom Brady did, more than Joe Burrow, and more than Matt Stafford.
Still, Eagles are 6-0 and that was the toughest team they’ll face all season. Our eight next games before facing Dallas again – PIT, HOU, WAS, IND, GB, TEN, NYG, CHI. There’s not a single team there the Eagles aren’t better than. And while I’m sure we’ll drop a game or two because Any Given Sunday is real, going something like 6-2 in that stretch puts Philadelphia in a really good position in a weak NFC.
