The Philadelphia Eagles are currently facing significant challenges with their run defense, ranking last in the NFL after giving up substantial rushing yards in consecutive weeks. Their struggle to contain explosive runs has resulted in a bottom-tier ranking, and they now face a tough matchup against the New Orleans Saints.

Head coach Nick Sirianni emphasized that addressing fundamental issues like blocking and tackling is crucial for improving their performance. The team needs to make quick adjustments to counter the Saints' effective running game led by Alvin Kamara.
