Eagles' Offense: Internal Optimism Amid Struggles

The Philadelphia Eagles are experiencing internal optimism regarding their offense despite recent struggles. According to Bleeding Green Nation, running back Saquon Barkley showcased potential in a recent game against the Los Angeles Chargers, rushing for 122 yards, his second time surpassing 100 yards this season.

Players expressed enthusiasm about adjustments in the run game and game plan, with Barkley highlighting the importance of consistency and positive yardage in setting up better running opportunities. Additionally, the Eagles achieved 365 yards from scrimmage in that game, marking their second-highest total of the season, and committed only three penalties.

However, there are still concerns, as even with the turnovers excluded, their offensive performance ranked in the bottom half for success rate and expected points added per drive. Coach Nick Sirianni has increased his involvement in offensive meetings, which players believe has positively impacted their approach.

As the team heads into colder weather, Barkley has historically thrived in December and January, averaging 4.7 yards per carry during these months. With four games remaining in the regular season, the Eagles are looking to regain momentum and confidence as they prepare to face the Las Vegas Raiders, a team they are favored to beat.

Despite criticisms of quarterback Jalen Hurts, who has faced struggles this season, the Eagles remain committed to their core players and coaching staff as they aim for a playoff run.
