3. Eagles are lacking innovative play-calling

On a day in which the Eagles were without Jordan Howard, Miles Sanders had 11 carries for 38 yards, but only two receptions for nine yards. Without DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery in the lineup, the Eagles are a pain to watch on offense and have no vertical threat that scares any defense in the NFL. Without such a deep threat, it may be time for Doug Pederson to consider reaching out to an innovative play-caller that can help loosen things up for Wentz and the Eagles.
