This team appears to be spent, both sides of the ball. The whole year has just been off and its amazing they even won 10 games; I am not sure they can get to 11.

@WestSideLion -- some brutal observations and stats from Roob:

this right here is the source of all the Eagles evil.....

3. The Eagles’ giveaway-takeaway stats are simply impossible to believe. They were plus-4 through four games but since Week 5 they’re minus-10 – worst in the league. This is the first time they’ve been minus-10 in any 10-game span since 2012. For the season, they’re minus-6 and only five teams are worse. They have just 15 takeaways all year – only four teams have fewer. The Eagles forced eight turnovers in their first three games but only seven in the last 11. That’s the 2nd-fewest takeaways in franchise history in an 11-game span. They don’t have an interception in their last three games and they have just four in their last 11 games. This is only the third time in franchise history they’ve had an 11-game stretch with four or fewer interceptions. Overall, they’ve gone 23 straight games without picking off two passes in a game – the 9th-longest streak in NFL history and the longest ever by the Eagles. The last time the Eagles had two interceptions in a game was last November, when Reed Blankenship and Josiah Scott each had their first career INT vs. Aaron Rodgers in the Eagles’ win over the Packers.

I’m actually cautiously optimistic for the defensive backfield next year. If ringo and ricks can get valuable playing time and development, and Isaiah Rodgers is coming back, plus Reed and Brown at safety. There’s a lot of promise there.

Now if they could just figure out LB…..

The Desai bit is just brutal. Siriani makes it easy for the league to bash him for having little class.

I'm surprised there is not more discussion in the media about increased distractions for the Eagles (and Chiefs) and the role they have or have not played in team struggles

Both Kelce boys for example -- podcast, commercials, very public new romance for Travis, Amazon Prime film, Christmas album. Jason has had costly penalties (especially the false start again Seattle) and Travis is dropping passes. The laser focus just isn't there

Hurts gets a mega-contract and Mahomes is all over State Farm ads. I don't think their drop off is a coincidence

I wonder how different the back end of D would look if the Eagles started Slay and Bradberry, Maddox and Byard and Blankenship?? And they played the whole game?? Would the D look different? Would the sacks begin to flow??
