Eagles legend believes Philly's recent losses are signs of larger issues
It hasn't been the happiest of New Year's Day celebrations for the Philadelphia Eagles, their fans, or the Philly media, at least not yet. Following the final weekend of 2023, the Birds are again staring up at the Dallas Cowboys in the divisional standing and the playoff picture. Sadly, however, this time, it appears that's where they will stay.
The Cowboys will earn the NFC East's crown unless the Eagles win their regular-season finale versus the New York Giants and Dallas somehow manages to lay an egg versus the Washington Commanders. Sure, Philly has already qualified for postseason play, but they're backing in. That's something no one wants to see.
The most recent loss felt like a nail in the coffin, even if it wasn't one of finality. We've hit the bottom. The Eagles aren't even better than the Arizona Cardinals right now, at least that's what Sunday's game taught us.
Eagles Nation is irate. So is the media that covers them. Look no further than everyone's favorite uncle.
Seth Joyner offers searing takes on another pathetic Eagles showing (and his theories on the deeper issues it uncovers).
There aren't many residents of the City of Brotherly Love who don't know who Seth Joyner is. Ask any Eagles fan living in other parts of the country, and they'll tell you a few stories as well.
A former player himself, Seth is also a mainstay at JAKIB Sports, one who is both praised and criticized for his honesty. He has a few theories about deeper issues with a struggling Eagles team, and he, as usual, had no issues with expressing them, both on the Pond Lehocky Postgame Show and 94 WIP-FM's Morning Show..
Stay tuned. We promise you that this won't be the last time you hear this conversation. Larger issues may be afoot with our Birds, and things may get worse before they get better.
We hope we're wrong, but something tells us that we aren't.
