Chip Kelly: Eagles two missed field goals from being 3-1

The Eagles were already without season-opening right guard Andrew Gardner, and Sunday played the second half without Pro Bowl left tackle Jason Peters, who left with a quadriceps injury that made him questionable in the first place. “A culmination of three- plus season that I was able to make the necessary plays on that drive”. Symbolic of the way things had been going for Chip Kelly’s much-ballyhooed system this season, though, Agholor couldn’t handle a pitch from Ryan Mathews on a reverse on the very next play, resulting in a fumble.

“You don’t throw the baby out with the bath water and say, ‘OK, we are going to change our offense, change our defense and change everything we are doing in our approach, ‘ ” Kelly said. “So I think it’s an effort for us to do a better job on first and second down”. He checked down instead to Jordan Matthews and the play was incomplete. Through three games with the sputtering Eagles, he’s gotten just 29 carries and 40 touches overall. In fact, his offense has failed to score in half of the quarters played during the four games this season. Washington eliminated the Eagles from the playoffs right here in precisely that situation.

The Eagles running game is pathetic. Sproles returned a Way punt 45 yards late in the first half to set up a scoring chance for the Eagles, who couldn’t take advantage with a missed 33-yard field goal. It’s a four-point difference. That’s what he does but it is what it is as far as him. Firing him won’t fix all of Philly’s problems, but it will fix one of its biggest ones. “So it goes either way”. “Everyone’s just got to get on the same page”.

The Eagles just didn’t have enough fuel to finish. He also has 11 receptions for 76 yards and a TD. Austin outran cornerback Chris Culliver and safety Dashon Goldson. All of it was in the air.

Williams also said a few other players in the locker room felt like he did.

After this throw, Bradford was so much more confident and continually took deep shots against a bad Washington secondary. “It’s about executing plays and us being better”.

“It definitely drives us and motivates us that we have the confidence to do it again”, he said. “Keeping everything in front and kind of making us manage”. “The turnover margin’s minus-4; we’ve got to try to fix that”, Gruden said. “They feel like they’re being treated like college players“. “It’s tough knowing I didn’t do my part”, said Sturgis, signed last week to replace the injured Cody Parkey.

In the first quarter of Sunday’s matchup against the Eagles, the Redskins’ offense found its way into the red zone on two separate occasions, but both of which ended with Dustin Hopkins field goals.

Kirk Cousins had the biggest drive of his life Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles, marching the Washington Redskins 90-yards down the field for a game-winning touchdown. Rowe was playing because Maxwell was out.

The Eagles have only run 241 offensive plays from scrimmage, which is 25th in the NFL. While Murray has been abysmal this season out of the backfield, he made it clear after the game that it’s not exactly his fault.

According to Billick, things could “unravel” soon if Kelly keeps micromanaging the team.
