Last season, as the Eagles remained the last unbeaten team in the NFL and ran their record to 8-0, there was a contingent of the fanbase who felt uneasy about the prospects of an undefeated season, openly suggesting it would be better for the team if they lost a game to “get it out of the way.”
I don’t hear anyone saying anything like that after the Eagles’ dreadful 20-14 loss to the Jets yesterday.
The offense was shut out in the second half. They committed four turnovers, capped by the inexplicable, back-breaking, unacceptable pick by Jalen Hurts just after the two minute warning.
