The Eagles could not capitalize on a golden opportunity to all but wrap up the NFC East on Monday night as they lost to the Los Angeles Chargers in overtime. At 8-5 the defending Super Bowl champions have taken some detours in their quest to defend the crown. And reigning Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts has taken his lumps as the offense as a whole struggles to find any consistency.
Hurts threw four interceptions and fumbled away a ball on Monday night, a stark departure from the Eagles' tried-and-true formula of having him manage the efficient, ball-conscious unit. If there's a bright side, Saquon Barkley looked like the more productive version of himself as he racked up 122 rushing yards and A.J. Brown caught six balls for 100 yards.
