I have made plenty of excuses for the Eagles’ defense this year. There have been games when I thought this unit fought hard and received very little help from the other side of the ball. There is absolutely no excuse…
Bleeding Green Nation's Jonny Page strongly criticized the Philadelphia Eagles' defensive performance under coordinator Vic Fangio following a home loss against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Page argued that the display was the most frustrating of Fangio's tenure, noting Dallas scored on seven of nine possessions, gained 416 total yards, and rushed for 204 yards. The Eagles failed to record a sack, quarterback hit, or tackle for loss against Dak Prescott.
Page highlighted structural failures, defensive passiveness, and poor individual execution across the defensive front and secondary. He pointed to struggles from high-profile linemen Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter against Dallas's jumbo offensive packages. Page also questioned defensive back Tariq Woolen's schematic fit and criticized coverage busts involving Andrew Mukuba and Cooper DeJean, while naming Quinyon Mitchell as the lone bright spot.
