Eagles stock up, stock down after 27-10 loss to Commanders in Week 8
Eagles stock up, stock down following a 27-10 loss to Washington, with Makai Lemon, Eli Stowers and several offensive concerns standing out
The Philadelphia Eagles suffered a 27-10 loss to the Washington Commanders in Week 8, extending their six-game losing streak and creating pressure on the team's season. Despite several young players making progress, the offense struggled to score after the first quarter, finishing with only 268 total yards and allowing five sacks.
The Eagles' offensive line faced significant issues, allowing multiple sacks and failing to establish a consistent rushing attack, which limited the effectiveness of quarterback Tanner McKee. Quarterback Tanner McKee's performance was particularly troubling, with five sacks and costly turnovers, as he operated under difficult circumstances.
The defensive line, however, showed improvement, with linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr. recording a team-high 10 tackles, providing a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing performance.
