His head wrapped in a wide, white headband, his face expressionless, Jalen Hurts moved from one Tennessee Titans player to another as he lingered near the 50-yard line at Lincoln Financial Field.
The Titans had been touted as the Eagles’ sternest test so far this season, as a team stout enough to beat them by running the ball with Derrick Henry, by matching their strength and aggressiveness at the line of scrimmage, by grinding them into so much sand. That was the caution. That was a reasonable way to view this game. That was not at all what happened.
If it was reasonable to think, back in training camp and even into September, that the Eagles would be a playoff team, that standard has since become too low for them. Now, all the markers of a truly great season — the NFC championship game, a berth in Super Bowl LVII, a victory in Super Bowl LVII — have gone from being a possibility to the baseline expectation. Now, anything short of a pilgrimage to Glendale, Ariz., in mid-February will be a disappointment.A.J. Brown just finished a rough week.
