PHILADELPHIA -- Eagles receiver A.J. Brown offered a quick retort when asked about speculation he isn't the same player he once was.
"I guess Saquon [Barkley] ain't the same player either, then," Brown said at his locker Thursday.
It's been slow going for the star-laden Eagles offense. Philadelphia ranks 25th in total yards (300.1 per game), 28th in passing yards (184.9) and 29th in third-down conversion rate (33.87%). The Eagles are averaging 115 rushing yards per game (17th in NFL), compared with 179 in 2024 (second).
Philadelphia does have the best red zone offense (75% conversion rate) in the NFL as well as a league-low four giveaways. That, paired with a defense that has played lights-out as of late, has been enough to keep Philly atop the NFC at 8-2.
