How can the Eagles improve in week 2?

After a tight win in week 1 against the Commanders the Eagles now set their sights on the country music capital of the world Nashville Tennessee as they face off against the Tennessee Titans. The Titans coming off a brutal outing against the Jets where they scored only 10 points in a 23-10 loss. 

The Eagles looked solid on Sunday against the commanders but there are definitely some things to clean up before this Sunday. The biggest issue currently is the Eagles offensive line. They had a poor showing against Washington as Saquon Barkley struggled to get across the line of scrimmage without facing contact from the defense. Jalen Hurts was sacked 3 times for 21 yards against Washington and pressure numerous times throughout. 

The Eagles defense needs to not get gassed. This defense has been the backbone of this team for the last few seasons and they looked off towards the end of the game Sunday call it week 1 fatigue if you will but they cannot allow a miserable Titans offense to move the ball up and down the field on them.

Special teams was huge in week 1 for the birds with Braden Mann pinning the Commanders deep in their own territory. If Mann can replicate that again this week it’ll make life miserable for Cam Ward and this Titans offense allowing for the Eagles defense to get in a comfortable rhythm early establishing their dominance on the field.
