That's the offensive line. The Eagles aren't giving their quarterbacks enough protection or opening enough holes for the running game. That's a problem even if Jalen Hurts was healthy and on the field. Right now, of course, the Eagles have Joe Milton heading up the quarterback position."Milton can't jump-start Eagles' offense. Philly's offense remains a slog, even with the athletic Joe Milton III under center," Kevin Patra of the NFL's website states.He adds that Milton "added a few good runs, leading the Eagles with 64 yards on nine rushes" and "completed 18 of 32 passes for 169 yards." He also took seven sacks, though, and has an accuracy issue."As it has all season, offensive line issues have exacerbated the problems," Patra states. "There were very few open holes in the run game, and far too many free rushers at the QB. Saquon Barkley generated just 22 yards on 13 carries (1.7 yards per carry) with a TD. That's not enough to help a young QB in his first start."So, it was a rough go for the Eagles. They have some soul-searching to do before the next game.More NFL news:Steelers' 'pipe dream' trade pairs Aaron Rodgers with star wideoutLions star Amon-Ra St. Brown is in trouble with the NFLLions favorite Jameson Williams hit with NFL punishment for Vikings incident
