Here’s everything you need to know about the Eagles’ Week 15 home game.
The Philadelphia Eagles (11-2) are on an nine-game win streak, and are back at home in Week 15 for an in-state battle against the Pittsburgh Steelers (10-3) on Sunday at 4:25 PM ET.
The Eagles spent the first half of the week answering questions about the relationship between Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown, and how it may or may not be affecting the passing game. It seems like everyone commented on it, and on Wednesday we heard from the QB and WR — and head coach — to end the speculation and move on.
While fans were concerned this crack in the foundation would start the snowball we endured in 2023, the Eagles handled things in good spirits and didn’t seem to be something anyone was stressing about. Example of Hurts not stressing about it during Friday’s practice while ‘My Prerogative’ plays over the speakers:
Without question the Eagles passing game needs to take a step up, but the strong defensive performances and run game should allow them the time to figure it out. It’s not like they’re far off, and the Steelers will be the perfect opportunity for them to try and do some things down field.
