Eagles coach's brutal honesty exposes massive kink in the armor after Bears loss

There was a time when the Philadelphia Eagles' defense was carrying this team to wins over the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions after back-to-back games with their offenses being held under 10 points. Those days seem to be long gone.

After Dak Prescott threw for over 350 yards in the Dallas Cowboys' 24-21 improbable win over the Eagles in Week 12, Philly's defense followed that up with a hideous 281 yards rushing allowed in the 24-15 loss to the Chicago Bears. This has arguably been the worst stretch of games on defense the Eagles have seen all season.
