Philadelphia Eagles: Everything good and bad about a Week 15 loss

Here’s the worst of the worst for Philadelphia Eagles fans.

Worst of the worst: Howie Roseman, General Manager, and Executive Vice President

Here at ITI, we told all readers that Howie Roseman would be on this side of the list until he could give fans a reason why he shouldn’t be. So why does the Eagles’ general manager remain on a list full of zeros? It’s simple. Two players he could’ve traded for, receivers DeAndre Hopkins and Stefon Diggs, both went off to the tune of 316 total yards and a touchdown in Week 15.

One also happened to be on the opposite sideline from Philly this past weekend.

Week in and week out, there are multiple players the Eagles could’ve either drafted or traded for making All-Pro caliber plays in another jersey. The Eagles’ leading receiver, Travis Fulgham, can’t even get on the field until the fourth quarter of games, while their second-round draft choice from a year ago, JJ Arcega-Whiteside, has been a healthy scratch.

The bad: Injuries

It just never seems to end. As soon as the Philadelphia Eagles thought they were out of harm’s way (as far as injuries go), they lost another starting right tackle and their starting safety. It’s amazing how banged up this team is, and it seems year after year that body count keeps rising.

There are two more games left on the Eagles’ regular-season schedule in 2020, even though they’re 4-9-1 on the year, there is still hope for them to get into the playoffs. It was a hard-fought battle that ultimately ended in a loss, but Eagles fans should come out of that game with optimism about Philly’s future, which looked very questionable until a few weeks ago.
