Why is the offense running in slow  motion?

I think some of this is not having a bye since week 5 and a lot of guys playing a ton of reps so need a second wind. I also think pass rush has been awful the last two weeks. Had 1 sack and 2 Qb hits last week. 

Teams also have been playing a lot more aggressively it feels like. Steelers, Commanders and now today feels like teams are trying to out muscle them. 

We have Pickett as the QB and we come out throwing the ball. Jesus

He would even if the Eagles win.  It'd be foolish to go into the playoffs with Hurts not really playing for 3 weeks outside of teo drives last week.

Completely disagree. He sits as long as possible.

Ken O’Brien then.

Looked about the same.   Sad and pathetic so far from Kenny Pickett to match the sad and pathetic of Kenny O'Brien.    

Let's see if the defense can stop getting gashed

If Pickett plays like that all game they will have to play hurts to win next week 

Refs should be fined/suspended when they are bad 

Of course there was a "missed” facemask 

Pickett is really good

10 game winning streak puts a target on their back probably 

Everyone settle in gonna be a long day

They said they booed the facemask

That was the play after that.   They were booing during Pam Oliver's update as they were lining up for the give up play to Gainwell.  

 

This is Philly they boo more than once.

Not the season but something has fallen off on the D side.

Well that's not what they would do and we saw this same situation play out in the final week of 2022 after Hurts missed two games.

I think they are at least suspended but it’s all subjective. Personally, it seems the refs are set up for failure. There’s too many penalties in general

Can take more chances and be aggressive when the pass rush is non-existent most of the game.

Another missed facemask penalty against us.    Officials have been hot garbage all year and still are. 

Pretty clear it's not going to change. Someone should be fired and sued. This is effing insane how this continues to happen.

Put McKee in already

Most importantly... Smith's arm is potentially injured.  Injuries in this game are the worst outcome possible.

Eagles media needs to make a highlight reel of all the non-calls and send to the league. It's ridiculous.

Blatant Fing penalties already not being called. Hope all these refs get AIDS.

They had a history of not starting great in a lot of games during the win steak and then getting it straightened out after the first drive or two.  Hopefully they fix it today now that they have some time to study what's going on out there.  Those first two drives were really just one drive... there was no time to adjust.  Now they can look to make adjustments.  

 

Yeah I’ve noticed the same from the defense. But it’s a bit alarming to see them struggle against an offense devoid of any skill initially
