The Eagles offense has been subject to a lot of criticism lately, and rightly so. The wheels are falling off the wagon at an alarming rate, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t positives to take. While it’s easy to jump on the deficiency at wide receiver, it’s also easy to overlook that the Eagles are establishing one of the most lethal tight end tandems in the entire league.
Zach Ertz reached 500 career receptions in Sunday’s loss to Seattle, becoming the 2nd-fastest TE in NFL history to reach that mark. His franchise-record of games with 10+ receptions (11) is now tied with Jason Witten for the 2nd-most by a TE since 1950.
