Wow, this has been a rough two weeks for them. Get mauled by the 49ers. Get mauled by us. Slay is out with knee surgery. Hurts has the flu and could miss tomorrow. Now they demote their DC.
I mean I knew they would come back to earth a bit after starting 10-1 with so many close/lucky wins but this like plummeting back to earth at 500,000 miles per hour. LOL.
It DOES seem like an overreaction from an outsiders POV.
I mean....if you knew you were gonna play a stretch of 6 games that went : Miami, Dallas, KansasCity AT ARROWHEAD, Buffalo, SanFran (when SF was on 10 day rest), and at Dallas (dallas on 10 day rest)....and ifbyou said back in Sept "they'll go 4-2 over that stretch", I imagine Philly would have taken that ALL day long.
But something else is up. Those weird comments by Slay....and then the "we're predictable" comment by an anonymous Eagle....and now this....there must be some serious differences of opinion going on behind the scenes. After all....pretty dire stuff for a team that will be favored to finish 14-3.
