Have you watched any of the games? The Eagles can’t scheme for shit. They run no motion, guys aren’t getting open easily at all.
They have the players but they aren’t putting them in the right positions to win.
Saying Hurts is the problem is laughable , he arguably should have been MVP last year and would have been Super Bowl MVP if his defense could have held up. Has he played worse this year? For sure, but he’s also been playing hurt and it is clear that the downgrade from Steichen to Johnson is crushing them as an offense.
The Eagles scheme last year didn’t run much motion yet did excel, but the issue there is that there’s no evolution of the offense. Due in part to the injury, he’s also not utilized in read-option concepts as much, and at times not running at all (due in part to injury).
Last year was also the first time since like high school or something he had the same offensive coordinator 2 years in a row.
They’ve definitely sent the message though that poor play calling is not an excuse, but do they recognize it? It seems to me they what people are saying he is doing wrong, they’re telling him to know is right. They seem to start halves effectively, but they don’t come off the field or look on the sideline acting confused, other than AJ who I guess insists he get the ball when he’s the first read.
