The Philadelphia Eagles, despite a nine-game winning streak and setting a franchise rushing record, displayed a surprisingly somber mood in the locker room following their narrow 22-16 victory over the Carolina Panthers.
Key players DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown expressed frustration over the offense's performance, which saw Jalen Hurts struggle to connect with them effectively. However, Saquon Barkley's standout performance helped secure the win and a playoff berth for the Eagles.
With the Eagles clinching a playoff spot, the focus now shifts to improving their passing game as they prepare for the postseason.
