PHILADELPHIA, PA — A.J. Brown has recently voiced significant frustration with the Philadelphia Eagles‘ offense, which many players believe is underperforming. In an interview, Brown openly expressed his misery with the current offensive strategy, sparking discussions among teammates about Jalen Hurts‘ performance this season.

Sources within the Eagles organization indicate that multiple offensive players are concerned about Hurts’ decision-making, especially against zone coverage. They suggest he has become overly cautious, opting for checkdowns or scrambling rather than throwing to open receivers down the field. This conservative approach has seen Philadelphia rank 30th in pass attempts, and it’s leading to disinterest among pass catchers.

Despite these issues, some benefits to the strategy exist; the Eagles have committed the fewest turnovers in the league this season and have excelled in red zone efficiency. However, the overall performance remains a cause for concern. The team has acknowledged its need for better communication and trust among players, particularly from Hurts as the offensive leader.

According to reports, Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie held a rare sideline meeting with Brown during practice to address these frustrations. During the ten-minute conversation, Brown expressed his desire to be more involved in the offense, before promising to cease public complaints.

The upcoming game against the Detroit Lions presents a critical opportunity for the Eagles to showcase their potential. With both teams vying for a playoff position, Hurts and the offense will need to improve significantly. Brown’s frustrations echo a larger sentiment within the team: a need for a greater offensive focus.

As the Eagles prepare for their next match-up, the relationship between Hurts and Brown will be under additional scrutiny. If the offensive strategy does not yield improved results, the team may face growing pressure to adapt by balancing both run and pass strategies effectively.

With a 7-2 record and playoff hopes still alive, resolving these issues will be paramount for the Eagles as they aim for another successful season.
