Sheil and Shawn Syed of SumerSports are back with another film session following the Eagles' loss to the New York Giants. They’ve sorted through the film and decided to fix the Eagles' problems. First up is the offense. Why have both the run game and pass game been mediocre this season (03:45)? Do the Eagles need to find better ways to sequence plays (17:32)? What changes would improve the pass game (21:34)? Why do the Eagles statistically have the worst starting field position on kickoffs in the NFL (34:55)? On the defensive side of the ball, will we see either Zack Baun or Jihaad Campbell blitz more due to the lack of adequate pass rushers (40:06)? The CB2 position has been a glaring issue all season. Could we see Cooper DeJean play in that position more (46:57)?
