The third straight loss has put the Philadelphia Eagles in a difficult phase of play. Drew Lock, the backup quarterback, guided the team to an upset victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Monday. The squad has struggled with injuries all season, and starting quarterback Jalen Hurts was sick before the game in Seattle.
Hurts publicly voiced his worries about the team’s cohesiveness and lack of dedication during a postgame news conference after the 20-17 loss. He underlined the necessity of better performance and a group effort to turn the season around. Hurts acknowledged the challenge ahead and challenged the squad to rise to it in spite of the failures.
The seasoned Eagles center, Jason Kelce, responded to Hurts’ remarks by offering his viewpoint on the “New Heights” podcast that he and his brother Travis Kelce produce. Kelce underlined the need to have a resilient mindset in the face of subpar performance, emphasizing the necessity of more commitment and diligence. He conveyed faith in each member of the squad and their common goal of winning.
For the squad to succeed, Kelce emphasized how important it is to return to the basics and adopt a team mentality. The five-time All-Pro believes that recommitting to hard work, owning up to mistakes, and encouraging teammates are crucial. Kelce thinks the squad will get better overall if these areas are approached with intention and seriousness.
Hurts had difficulties on Monday; we don’t yet know how much his sickness affected him, but he finished the Week 15 game with 143 throwing yards, two interceptions, and two running touchdowns. Hurts has been a reliable starter this season despite crucial errors in the fourth quarter and a knee injury.
It appears that Hurts’ message struck a chord with his teammates, demonstrating a shared understanding of the necessity of heightened dedication and effort to get over the present obstacles and restore momentum.
