NFL Week 2 Winners and Losers: Eagles in a hole again, after bad start vs. Rams leads to loss and 0-2 record

The Philadelphia Eagles looked pretty good when they were up 17-0 on the Washington Football Team in Week 1.

Everything has gone downhill since.

The Eagles are 0-2 after blowing that Week 1 lead to Washington and then being dominated by the Los Angeles Rams, losing 37-19. West Coast teams playing an early game are supposed to start slow, but the Eagles were sleepwalking to start the game, going down 21-3 early in the second quarter.

They battled back to make it interesting, but those dreams ended when Rams tight end Tyler Higbee scored his third touchdown of the game to give the Rams a 31-19 lead.
