Empty Receiving Calories with Jaylen Waddle and Jalen Reagor

If you have watched all of the Philadelphia Eagles games this season, my condolences you may have noticed an offensive pattern emerging. It was a bold choice for Nick Sirianni and his staff to build their offense out of solely RPOs and screen passes, but it seems to be working, if your standard for "working" is the 21st-ranked pass offense in the league. Jalen Hurts is currently sitting at a 30.0% failed completion rate. A failed completion is defined as any completed pass that fails to gain 45% of needed yards on first down, 60% on second down, or 100% on third or fourth down, so a hefty diet of screens and dumpoffs are a great way to pump those numbers up.
