The Packers line gets shredded

     The Packers came into the game allowing runners to 4.6 yards per run, and were pretty fired up. After all, they had shut down Derrick Henry giving him only 3.1 yards per run and sacked Ryan Tannehill three times. Well in an offensive battle they were destroyed, as Jalen Hurts and Miles Sanders continually slipped past their ranks for huge gains. 

    It was an offensive war, and the Eagles came out on top. The Packers defense looked like they were on vacation as they allowed Jalen Hurts to 157 yards on the ground, and they gave Miles Sanders 143. They gave up touchdowns to both Kenneth Gainwell, and Sanders; they gave up two to Sanders. They gave up 363 yards total on the ground. The Eagles thrashed the Packers defensive line. Through the air they weren't bad either. Hurts threw touchdowns to both A.J. Brown and Quez Watkins, who is inserting himself more and more into Eagles' games. He has caught eight passes and two touchdowns in the last two games.

    Of course, the Eagles win wasn't flawless. An A.J. Brown fumble set up a 63 yard Quay Walker rumble, which led to an Aaron Jones touchdown catch. Brown's fumbling has been an issue, this was the second fumble he had two games in a row. Aaron Rodgers also threw two touchdowns and had a 95.8 rating, before he got injured, and after Jordan Love took over, the Eagles' secondary allowed a touchdown to Christian Watson. They allowed Watson to four receptions and 110 yards. A.J. Dillon responded to the Eagles fantastic rushing day with 64 yards on only eight carries. Aaron Jones was a threat as a receiver, catching three passes for 56 yards and a touchdown. The Packers also sacked Jalen Hurts twice.

    And of course the Packers weren't flawless either. Besides Hurts' versatility as both a runner and a passer, the Eagles defense had a solid game. Although they allowed 33 points, the most this season, Aaron Rodgers threw two interceptions, one to rookie Reed Blankenship, and the other to Josiah Scott. Fletcher Cox and Josh Sweat both had a sack, and Haason Reddick and Brandon Graham shared a sack. For the most part however, the Eagles defensive line shut down Aaron Jones, giving him only 43 yards and only 3.6 yards per carry.

   It wasn't a bad game, but the defense allowed 33 points, and are facing a tough Tennessee Titans offense next week. And fumbling ultimately results in points, and the Eagles' offense needs to fix that. The Packers aren't a bad team, and the Eagles came away with the W, and have thus improved to 10-1. The Eagles are still one of the best teams in the NFC, but they need to stop fumbling, and they need to work on their secondary. Treylon Burks, Robert Woods, and Ryan Tannehill are coming to Philly next week, and the Eagles will not be prepared to win against that kind of a receiving corps with a relatively banged up secondary.
