When it comes to under center play action in particular...remember how cute we thought it was that those two plays worked against the Vikings?

For those of you not familiar with how to read these graphs, let's start with this: it's not good when your team's logo is almost fully hidden behind the Jets logo.

Beware of small samples here, but that's part of the point. The #Eagles continue to not use very much play action, and are usually bad at it when they do it.

#Eagles playoff scenarios!

NFC East magic number is 4--so any 4 PHI wins + DAL losses (10 combined games remaining).

For the NFC # 1 seed, here are all of the scenarios in which the Eagles finish 13-4 or 12-5 (excluding those that involve any further tie games)...

#Eagles have scored 62 total points in the four games since the bye, their fewest in any four game stretch in 13 years: they scored 59 points in Weeks 8-11 of 2012 (Andy Reid's final season as head coach).

The defense can only bail you out so many times.

On sneaks, #Eagles had consistently--for years now--used TWO pushers (Saquon+Goedert), who in effect protected Jalen from guys coming in from the sides.
After the fails vs Detroit, they debuted this single pusher look last week in Dallas, which left the sides more vulnerable.

Always hard to tell what the coverage details are on these bootlegs which distort the coverage so much with everyone playing run, but my guess is Sydney Brown is supposed to match number 2 running vertical right at him rather than chase the flat which DeJean is already chasing.

Not really relevant : when it happened.
Relevant: the play itself.

You can see the OL is blocking for QB Draw on the 2PC, which explains the quick pressure. The routes on the left also look like clear-out routes for QB Draw.

(And AJ is open just as Jalen starts looking away from him.)

Swooper! @ej-smith.bsky.social and @bowulf.bsky.social continue to distance themselves from the struggling @fduffy.bsky.social, who may have spent Thanksgiving at the Linc personally painting the end zones black for Black Friday.

Meanwhile, teams are completing over half of their deep shots against the Bears defense, which has been awful at giving up big plays but thrived on turnovers.
November 26, 2025 at 5:38 AM
Bears attempt more deep shots per game than any other team, but haven't been great at completing them. Both the #Eagles and the Bears have avoided turnovers at a very high rate while getting above average production from explosives.

Black Friday should feature a lot of holding the ball and a bunch of deep shots from both teams. #CHIvsPHI.

#Eagles offense has been best in the NFL at avoiding turnovers, while the Bears defense has been best in the league at forcing them. Something has to give on Black Friday. #CHIvsPHI
November 26, 2025 at 5:22 AM
For the season, 24.9% of all routes run by the #Eagles have been hitches, the highest rate by far of any team in the TruMedia database (which for route frequency dates back to 2012).
November 26, 2025 at 3:37 AM
#Eagles doubled down on hitch routes in Dallas, running 69 hitches as a team on 43 dropbacks (1.6 hitches per dropback!), by far the most of any team in Week 12.

Advanced team stats ahead of Bears - #Eagles.
November 26, 2025 at 1:24 AM
Black Friday will feature two 8-3 teams who have combined to play 2 games (out of 22) in which both sides of the ball were clearly above average.
(Average Offensive EPA/drive is +0.02, Defensive is -0.02.)
