The Philadelphia Eagles had a rough outing on the road against the Vikings. Which players need to step it up after this loss?

We’ve had victory Monday’s for the last two weeks, but that won’t three times in a row. No thanks to the underwhelming performance by the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, there isn’t much to celebrate about the 3-3 wildly underperforming team.

Last week’s game against the New York Jets was entertaining, but it turns out, it was all a fugazi. Ten sacks from the defense last week went down to one against the Minnesota Vikings. Allowing only six points against New York, went up to allowing 38 against Minnesota.

In other words, the defense was pretty bad for the Eagles. As for the offense, their performance against New York was quite similar to how it was against the Vikings. Slow, sluggish, and underwhelming. Without a deep threat, this team won’t accomplish much.

After further review, the Eagles are definitely not who everybody initially thought they were. By no means is the Eagles’ season over — but there are certainly key players who just don’t offer much value at this point in time. So after seeing Sunday’s loss in Minnesota, which players stood out for all of the wrong reasons in Week 6?
