• Not every Eagles loss is a cause for concern

Peter Casey-Imagn Images Don’t get too riled up about Sunday’s loss to the Commanders. In the grand scheme of things, everything is fine. Sunday’s 36-33 loss to the Commanders in the nation’s capitol was annoying and frustrating. After building up a 14-0 and 21-7 first quarter lead, it’s hard to believe the NFL’s No. 1 defense allowed 22 fourth-quarter points and become the first team sinc...2024
