There’s no doubting that the Eagles have faced a lot of adversity this season. Some of it has been self-inflicted, a lot of it has been injury-related, and then there’s Orlando Scandrick. But what nobody accounted for, was the youth infusion that would ultimately save the season as a result.
With the offense depleted, players such as Greg Ward Jr., Dallas Goedert, Joshua Perkins, and Miles Sanders have all had to step up. None of those players were around the team during the highs of Super Bowl 52 and the raw underdog energy with a desire to prove a point is what has helped lift this offense out of a slump.
