The Philadelphia Eagles' offensive strategy, centered on the run-pass option (RPO), is drawing scrutiny after a narrow loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has made this approach a hallmark, but recent penalties for ineligible players downfield highlight its challenges.
Head coach Nick Sirianni addressed the penalties, explaining their causes range from player decisions to coaching strategy.
Despite the setbacks, the Eagles are committed to refining their execution of RPOs while acknowledging the recent trend of increased penalty calls against them.
