Philadelphia Eagles: 5 Things we learned over 2 weeks

We’ve all learned a ton about the Philadelphia Eagles over the last two weeks. While this subject could be discussed for days, we’ll limit our analysis to five points.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way. When the Philadelphia Eagles entered their bye week, they were a .500 team. They were supposed to take a week off, come back refreshed, and, then, go on that run we all knew they were capable of. They had just added Golden Tate for crying out loud.

That run doesn’t seem as though it’s going to happen.

Since the bye, Philly’s 0-2, and they appear to be getting worse with each passing moment. The loss to the Dallas Cowboys was a shock to many, and though few expected them to beat the New Orleans Saints, no one expected a 48-7 shellacking.

Honestly, that’s probably not true. Many of us are thankful this team, a shell of the team that won the Super Bowl this past February, only lost by 41 points. Everyone hates to kick a team when they’re down. We only hope that this serves as constructive criticism.

Here are five things we’ve learned since the bye week concluded.
