This was the weirdest defensive performance I have ever tried to analyze. What defense gives up five passing touchdowns and has five turnovers? It’s unheard of. I’ll do my best to analyze this one, but it was a weird game.
Defense
Like the offense, the Eagles’ defense came out flying in this one. The first few drives were as good as it gets. I thought Fangio was in his bag early on, and he was getting a bunch of free rushers and speeding up Jayden Daniels’ process, who looked uncomfortable. This was a great 5-man rush, giving Nolan Smith a lot of space to work with.
