Philadelphia Eagles top performers, biggest losers from Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles biggest losers from Week 4

Fletcher Cox, defensive end

Though criticizing Fletcher Cox is blasphemy for some of you, the narrative that 91 isn’t getting much done because ‘he’s being double-teamed’ is a false narrative. The truth is Cox is showing signs of laziness and the motor isn’t what it once was.

Four games into the season, Fletcher Cox has five total tackles on the season. That isn’t the production that you should expect or tolerate from someone who is as talented or well-paid as he is. Someone must hold him accountable.

Jonathan Gannon, defensive coordinator

The Eagles have given up more than 40 points in each of their last two games. Sure, there was a Dallas Cowboys pick-six in Week 3 that helped add to the tally, but it doesn’t matter.

Jonathan Gannon doesn’t have these guys prepared. There are no adjustments being made. Something has to change here, or he won’t be here past this season.

Aaron Moorehead, wide receivers coach

No one seems to ever criticize Aaron Moorehead, but veteran receivers have regressed under his watch. Rookies haven’t lived up to their potential. He runs some really nice drills in practice, but instead of harping on Jalen Reagor so much, we may need to shift our attention to his position coach. He’s the issue.

Derek Barnett, defensive end

Do we really have to keep explaining this one? Why does Derek Barnett get so much playing time? Why is he still here?
