The Eagles suffered their third consecutive loss on Monday night after the Seahawks beat them 20–17 in a last-minute comeback. Philadelphia started the season 10–1 and held the best NFL record. Now the team sits at 10–4 and holds the NFC’s No. 5 playoff seed. Center Jason Kelce took the chance to talk about the Eagles’ recent struggles on his popular podcast New Heights that he co-hosts with his brother, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. The Eagles star was honest about his thoughts, sharing that it’s a team issue right now.
“I’ve said this the last three weeks, and I still think so, I think we have great players, I really do,” Kelce said. “I think we have great coaches. It’s just not clicking right now. Myself included, we have not been disciplined enough. We haven’t executed, especially in crucial moments of the game. “When we were 10–1, we were just collectively operating on a much more consistent situationally aware smart football team. This is not smart, this is stupid. Losing sucks, but I know we’re a hell of a lot better than what we’ve been showing on tape.”
Earlier on Wednesday, Kelce called the Eagles’ offense “inconsistent” when talking about the losing streak on the WIP Morning Show. The Eagles will look to capture their first win since November on Monday against the Giants.
