5. Zach Brown, LB

Typically, we wouldn’t highlight Zach Brown’s five tackle, with one tackle for a loss performance like this, but he basically called for it. A few days before Sunday’s matchup, Zach Brown chose to do some slight trash talking against the other team’s quarterback and he made himself look silly.

The least of his problems happened to be Kirk Cousins. Then, on Sunday, Kirk Cousins ended up being one of the biggest problems for the Eagles. Funny how that works out. After the game, Brown grew frustrated with questions surrounding Cousins’ performance.

While he did give the quarterback props, it was clear Zach Brown was eating his words. Let this be a lesson to all Philadelphia Eagles. If your team hasn’t figured out who they are yet, maybe don’t talk smack heading into a critical conference matchup on the road — because when it’s all said and done, you will look foolish with a loss. Well, Brown looked foolish, that’s for sure.
