The Eagles have one of the NFL’s most explosive offensive units, but unlike the 2022 squad that reached the Super Bowl, this team struggles to generate any offense or points in the first quarter.
Sunday against Cleveland marked the fifth-straight game in which the Birds went scoreless in the first quarter, a new franchise record.
First time in Eagles history they haven’t scored any points in the first quarter through their first 5 games.
