The Philadelphia Eagles were on top of the world and the AFC East. But after the end of the Week 15 game, they have slipped up from their lead position. Going 10-1 in the 12 weeks, the team is going through their worst patch of the season. The Eagles are on a 3-game losing streak and their QB, Jalen Hurts, looks heartbroken.

The Eagles lost a closely fought game against the Seattle Seahawks 20-17 on the road. For the previous 2 defeats, the leaky Eagles’ defense was to blame. But this time around it was QB Hurts, giving away two interceptions late in the game. Watch how the Eagles #1 reacted to this loss and his subpar performance.

Jalen Hurts was left hurting after the game

Before the game, Jalen Hurts was questionable to play. But being the warrior that the 25-year-old is, Hurts stepped up for the crucial game. Yet the result was not what he was hoping for! Hurts pushed his body throughout the game, but in the last quarter, it gave out, resulting in a couple of game-throwing interceptions.

“Was trying to be aggressive at that moment”, Hurts said after the game, referring to those interceptions. The first interception came with 8:08 minutes remaining in the fourth. While the 2nd and even more hurtful with just 2 minutes remaining on the clock.

The QB later downplayed his physical well-being, considering it unimportant since the team lost. “All of that is really irrelevant at this point. We didn’t play good enough, I didn’t play good enough”, Hurts said. The Eagles are looking worse for wear as the postseason is about to begin. It seems a certain level of change is needed within the camp.

The Eagles are reinventing

After last week’s game against the divisional rivals the Dallas Cowboys, the Eagles made a monumental change. They demoted their defensive coordinator Sean Desai and promoted Matt Patricia from within. But did this change payoff?

After a couple of games where the Eagles’ defense lacked any positional awareness and kept leaking points, this week their defense looked somewhat better. Two blowout losses and a change within the team’s structure have certainly improved the Eagles’ defensive capabilities. After horrid displays in the previous two weeks where they conceded 42 and 33 points respectively, they restricted the number to 20 this week..

So, can this defeat be marked up to Jalen Hurts’ illness? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
