They\u2019ve been outgained by their opponents in every game this season.<\/p>\n<p>The situation culminated in a multi-hour meeting between quarterback Jalen Hurts, running back Saquon Barkley, and receiver A.J. Brown.<\/p>\n<p>So what would Hall of Fame head coach Tony Dungy, whose Colts offense had a plethora of stars and rare displays of consternation regarding distribution of the ball, say to the players in Philly, if he we running the show?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirst of all, <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=sY3ZxwWXQpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">our goal is to win<\/a>,\u201d Dungy said on Thursday\u2019s PFT Live. \u201cAnd so that\u2019s number one. And we all agree on that, and everybody\u2019s gonna say they agree on it. Now, who are we as Eagles and how are we gonna win? This is how we\u2019re gonna win. We\u2019ve got a dominant front five up front. We\u2019ve got the best back in football. We are gonna be a running football team, and we\u2019ve got a quarterback that can also run. If we do our thing, nobody should be able to stop us running the ball. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, once they load up and do all that, we\u2019re gonna get four, five shots, and you receivers, that\u2019s what you\u2019re going to have to be. You\u2019re gonna have to be the guy that makes that big play when we get the the moment, but you\u2019re not going to catch 20 balls a game. You\u2019re not gonna get 15 targets. That\u2019s not gonna happen. We\u2019re gonna win a Super Bowl being a running football team. And I think when everybody understands that, they\u2019ll be OK. That\u2019s what they did last year, and they won a Super Bowl. I think they could do the same thing, if they had that mindset.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For now, they don\u2019t. After a win over the Buccaneers, Brown\u2019s frustrations bubbled over. Which possibly triggered an overcorrection in the Week 5 loss, during which the Eagles blew a 17-3 fourth-quarter lead.<\/p>\n<p>Against the Giants tonight, will the Eagles get back to basics? Will they not try to force the ball to Brown or receiver Devonta Smith but instead display patience with a running game that, last year, ran over everyone?<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re about to find out, when the Week 6 game against the Giants begins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Eagles currently are bogged down by issues regarding the performance of their offense, which currently ranks 30th&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":214129,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-214128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/214128","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=214128"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/214128\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/214129"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=214128"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=214128"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=214128"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
