Eagles 'overthinking' on dropped passes, Kelly says

Throughout this season, the Eagles have demonstrated difficulties with the most fundamental part of catching the football. It was most apparent Sunday night in a 27-16 loss to the Carolina Panthers, when Eagles coach Chip Kelly counted at least eight dropped passes - and even that number could have been higher.

Kelly admits the drops are a problem, and the problem is not how quarterback Sam Bradford is passing the ball. It's the players who are catching - or not catching.

"I think you could argue two of them, but we had at least eight, could have been 10," Kelly said Monday.
