They do allow sacks though. 9th highest sack percentage in the league. 12th most sacks allowed.
You’d also think that they’re playing with a lead most of the time and not in as many obvious passing situations (passing to catch up when trailing). Only 1 playoff team had a worse percentage (Giants). [Reply]
Fearing their pass rush on Mahomes after seeing Purdy get accordioned from the right side by Haason Reddick a bad ass... he will be matched up against Andrew Wylie. Eagles piled up 70 sacks during the regular season.

A few of the sacks are when hurts takes off but gets tackled for a loss. Not really on the online. [Reply]
The thing I see is that the eagles have not played a great offensive team this year…
They played Jax early before they were jelling, they played the cowboys once with Rush and got beat by Dak, and they played the 48ers with their 4th string QB…
I think our offense is about to destroy them…if our defense can make Hurts one dimensional, look out! [Reply]
Philly wide receivers are not as fast as Ciny's but they are just as physical. Sure we are going to give up a couple of deep throws but our DB's should be able to hold their own. Jalen Hurts is also not 100% you could tell when he threw the ball. This should be a good game, I am thinking it will be a close game unless we do not get healthy fast. [Reply]

Lol. Hurts taking off due to pressure and then getting taken down behind the line is still on the Oline. A clear designed run that goes for a loss isn’t considered a sack. [Reply]

I feel eerily calm about this for once, maybe its Pat or hurts or whatever it is.. I feel after this game the 6'th dimension is coming or maybe it is just all black. [Reply]
Eagles allowed 33 points against the ghost of Aaron Rodgers. If that's the baseline for their output combating a mentally checked out elite QB then they're in deep shit. [Reply]
Many of his sacks are designed runs. Lane Johnson and Jayson Kelce are both All Pros and havent allowed a sack this year. The Eagles Offensive and Defensive lines are two of the best in the NFL. I love this test for the Eagles, Mahomes is great and may win the MVP but Hurts is also a finalist for the MVP. The match ups favors the Eagles in wr rb secondary and both lines. Kelce is a beast but Dallas Goddert is dangerous as well. The Chiefs have the experience but the birds have more talent. Gonna be a great game. Thanks for having me [Reply]

Welcome. It should be a great game. However, as I was pointing out to the other Eagles fan here, in the NFL designed runs by the QB aren’t considered sacks. It’s pretty easy to tell when a QB is scrambling vs a called run. If you tackle the QB behind the line of scrimmage on a designed run you’ll get credit for a TFL but not for a sack. [Reply]
