Philadelphia Eagles: 5 concerns for Wild Card matchup with Seahawks

3. Eagles only scored nine points during first meeting

As previously mentioned, the first meeting between these two teams towards the end of November consisted of Philadelphia scoring just nine points.

And if that didn’t seem like a reason for concern, it should also be noted that Ertz caught two-yard touchdown pass with only 20 seconds remaining in the game, meaning the Eagles basically went the entire contest scoring just three points.

This time around, a performance like this by Philadelphia would be completely unacceptable since this would most likely mean that Seattle will be the ones advancing to the Divisional Round while the Eagles begin preparation for the offseason.

Even if the argument can be made that Philadelphia’s offense is in worse shape this time around since players like Ertz and Alshon Jeffery were part of the action back in November, the Eagles need to use their last four games as an example of how to perform on offense.

In fact, if the Eagles could find a way to top nine points in the first quarter alone, this would put them in much better position to take down the Seahawks.

But if the struggles continue on offense against Seattle, Philadelphia could be in for a long outing Sunday night.
