Overview
- The Eagles blew a 10-point fourth-quarter lead and lost 24-20 to the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday after the Rams mounted two late touchdown drives.
- Philadelphia failed to convert a single third down, going 0-for-12, a franchise-worst type of outing that stalled drives and forced the defense into extended work.
- Quarterback Jalen Hurts produced a poor passing line (12-for-27 for 93 yards), was caught on a hot mic berating receivers, and described the problems as “poor execution.”
- Head coach Nick Sirianni called the offense “not good enough,” said third-down failures were shared by coaches and players, and accepted responsibility for a failed fourth-and-2 decision late in the game.
- The loss exposed the strain of injuries and late inactives to key offensive pieces, put a rookie tackle into the lineup, and heightens urgency for immediate fixes with a short turnaround and a Week 5 trip to London coming next.
