The line gave up some pressure to the Lions at times but did block well enough for the Eagles’ ground game to have a big performance, especially in that 4-minute drill to seal the game.The Eagles’ expensive defensive line didn’t get much pressure on Jared Goff in this game with their only “sack” coming on a bad snap. The best pressure of the game came from Marlon Tuipulotu on the pick-6.
The run game hurt them too. The four-man front got gashed in the run. A lot of this is on DC Jonathan Gannon but the individual players could have performed much better. A bright spot was the play of rookie Jordan Davis, who can certainly stuff the run if no one else can.The Eagles’ tackling in this game left a lot to be desired. That’s probably to be expected in the first game of the season but it needs to get corrected.
